PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS 2001, AS AMENDED
NOTICE OF PROPOSED VARIATION No. 9 OF THE DUBLIN CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2022 – 2028
Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 13 of the Planning and Development Act 2000 that Dublin City Council, being the Planning Authority for Dublin City, has prepared a Proposed Variation of the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028 in respect of the following:
It is proposed to vary the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028, by making the following amendments:
Changing the land use zoning objective of lands at Glasnevin that include Dublin Industrial Estate and environs, Dublin 11
From: Zoning Objective Z6 – Employment/Enterprise - To provide for the creation and protection of enterprise and facilitate opportunities for employment creation.
To: Zoning Objective Z14 – Strategic Development and Regeneration Areas - To seek the social, economic and physical development and/or regeneration of an area with mixed-use, of which residential would be the predominant use.
Designating the endorsed Broombridge-Hamilton Masterplan as a new Strategic Development and Regeneration Area (SDRA 18) with associated amendments to Chapter 13: Strategic Development and Regeneration Areas (SDRAs) and incorporating the endorsed Broombridge Hamilton Masterplan 2025 into Volume 2 of the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028 as a new appendix 21.
Amending Table 2-8: Core Strategy and Settlement Hierarchy in Chapter 2: Core Strategy of Volume 1 of the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028 to include new SDRA 18.
Reason: Dublin City Council prepared a non-statutory Masterplan for lands located at Glasnevin that include 45.5 hectares of lands zoned Z6 (Employment/Enterprise) at Dublin Industrial Estate and environs (formerly known as Baile Bogáin (Ballyboggan)) pursuant to Objective CS01 of the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028. The Broombridge-Hamilton Masterplan was prepared to facilitate the compact and sustainable mixed-use regeneration and redevelopment of the area in accordance with national and regional policy objectives relating to compact and sustainable growth. The proposed variation is required to implement the Masterplan. The proposed re-zoning is required to facilitate residential development and the proposed SDRA designation will provide legal status to the Masterplan. This will support a coordinated and sequential approach to the regeneration of these lands, ensuring that essential community facilities and amenities to support a new community are provided.
A copy of the Proposed Variation, together with a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Environmental Report pursuant to the Planning and Development (Strategic Environmental Assessment) [SEA] Regulations 2004-2011, a Natura Impact Report pursuant to the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended), a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment Report pursuant to Section 28 of the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended) and an accompanying Rainwater Management Strategy may be inspected for a period from 21st October 2025 to 18th November2025, inclusive at the following location:
