Zoning Contravention
Scale of retail floorspace and ancillary uses does not represent a balanced approach for the neighbourhood centre and contravenes the NC zoning objective.
Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Development Plan 2016-2022, Policy RET6: Neighbourhood Centres, Section 8.3 Land use Zoning Objectivesthe proposed development, by reason of the scale of retail floorspace and ancillary uses, would not represent a balanced approach to development in the neighbourhood centre, would impact unduly on surrounding residential and visual amenities, and would be contrary to the 'NC' zoning objective at this location.
Design
Extensions are out of keeping with the receiving environment, constitute overdevelopment, are visually overbearing, and adversely affect the character of the Monkstown ACA.
