NOTICE OF PROPOSED VARIATION No.'s 6 & 7 OF THE DUBLIN CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2022 – 2028

Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 13 of the Planning and Development Act 2000, as amended, that Dublin City Council, being the Planning Authority for Dublin City, has prepared two Proposed Variations of the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028 in respect of the following:

Proposed Variation No. 6: Lands at One Royal Canal House, Royal Canal Park, Pelletstown, Dublin 15:

It is proposed to vary the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028, by changing the land use zoning objective of lands at One Royal Canal House, Royal Canal Park, Pelletstown, Dublin 15

From: Zoning Objective Z1 ‘Sustainable Residential Neighbourhoods’ - To protect, provide and improve residential amenities.

To: Zoning Objective Z3 ‘Neighbourhood Centres’ - To provide for and improve neighbourhood facilities.

Reason:  One Royal Canal House is zoned Z1 (Sustainable Residential Neighbourhoods) in the current Dublin City Development Plan.  To better reflect and support the operational and permitted office use at this location and, thereby in turn, support the commercial core at Royal Canal Park, it is proposed to vary the zoning at One Royal Canal House from Z1 to Z3. 

A copy of the Proposed Variation, together with the Strategic Environmental Assessment and Appropriate Assessment Screening Reports and Strategic Flood Risk Assessments may be inspected for a period from 4th September 2025 to 3rd October 2025 inclusive at the following locations:
