The lands at Finnstown House are a unique part of the character and heritage of Lucan and my family and I have enjoyed walking in this demense over the years.

I support Amendment Reference 3 because it removes the proposed residential zoning from the Finnstown Castle lands. These lands are an important open space for the local community, provide a valuable habitat for wildlife and contribute to the character and heritage of the area. I believe they should be protected from future housing development and retained as open space for the benefit of current and future generations.
