They don't, they are obliged to make developer contributions under the Planning and Development Act..golden mean said:................but how can developers get away without paying into the pot for road improvements and/or improved transport links?

LOL! Good one there. Good urban planning! Hillarious. Should be in the Shooting the Breeze section.jdwex said:TBH, don't know the area, but surely good urban housing planning would not necessarily have to include front gardens?

A million! eek..tallpaul said:If, as is rumoured, the developers are going to be looking a for around a million a house, I would bloody hope they have a front garden!!!
What has this got to do with the issue? Do you think that they should sell the houses for less than the market value?tallpaul said:If, as is rumoured, the developers are going to be looking a for around a million a house, I would bloody hope they have a front garden!!!

Next year's election will be a general election. The next local election will be around 2009. Councillors don't approve or disprove individual developments. This is done by the planners, council management and/or An Bord Pleaneala.tallpaul said:Each and every councillor of DLR Co Co should be asked to account for themselves when they approved this development. My parents certainly will be of them in next year's local elections.

Again, it seems your ire is misdirected. This tract of land was one of several tracts which was rezoned as residential by Ministerial order from Martin Cullen (then Minister of Environment) following a recommendation by the the DLR County Manager Derek Brady (who has since taken up a job with a major property development company) in 2004. See [broken link removed] for more details.tallpaul said:Accepted. But from memory I recall that the Councillors had a number of debates on the issue which culminated in a vote on the development...
mmmmh....didnt realise the conflicts of interest involved, why hasnt this been covered in media?? the brown envelope may have disappeared from irish planning but have plum jobs in private sector and nods and winks replaced them?? I vaguely remember hearing such public sector employees making big money decisions can go straight to the private sector with no restrcitions.RainyDay said:Again, it seems your ire is misdirected.
