Dúnta3 Iúil, 2017, 8:00am - 11 Lún, 2017, 4:00pm

PRE-DRAFT PUBLIC CONSULTATION FOR TALLAGHT TOWN CENTRE LOCAL AREA PLAN

South Dublin County Council is preparing a new Local Area Plan (LAP) for Tallaght Town Centre. The areas that the plan will look at includes Tallaght Village, the Square Shopping Centre, Sean Walsh Memorial Park, Cookstown Industrial area, South City Business Park, the Institute of Technology Tallaght, Belgard Road and Airton Road. The LAP will look at things like how easy it is to travel around Tallaght town centre, the quality of the public spaces in the town centre, the design of future buildings, what type of development should be encouraged in the area of the Plan.

South Dublin County Council is undertaking pre-draft consultation for a local area plan for Tallaght Town Centre from Monday 3rd July 2017 until Friday 11th August 2017 inclusive. This pre-draft consultation will ensure that local ideas will be heard and taken into consideration before a Draft LAP is drawn up at a later stage for further public consultation.

The previous plan was adopted in 2006 and extended in 2011. The new LAP will allow for an updated assessment of the current situation for the entire area and the formulation of a series of responses that reflects changing economic and social circumstances.

Pre-draft consultation information for the Tallaght Town Centre LAP is available to the public during normal opening hours (excluding public holidays) in the County Library, Tallaght, Castletymon Library, Tymon Road North, Tallaght and at County Hall, Tallaght. A leaflet and information has also been placed on the Council’s website at http://consult.sdublincoco.ie.
