Dublin city residence a "fire safety risk" and "should be vacated immediately", court told
Summary
In a High Court hearing on 15 June 2017, the court was told that a Dublin city centre property at 24 Mountjoy Square, which includes the premises known as 24 Charles Lane, is a fire safety risk and must be vacated immediately. The building houses a textile business and is being used for residential purposes, a use that is not permitted under a Fire Safety Notice issued by Dublin City Council in August of the previous year. The receiver, Ms Anne O'Dwyer of Duff & Phelps, represents the property owner, Mr Christopher Singh, and TWI Textile Machinery and Fabric Company Ltd. The receiver has been unable to access the premises since her appointment, and the building is still being used for residential purposes, contrary to the notice. Dublin City Council, after a recent inspection, has urged the receiver to vacate the building immediately.
