Dispute over Raheny housing development is adjourned
Summary
The court has adjourned a dispute over An Bord Pleanála's grant of planning permission for a 500‑unit housing development in Raheny, north Dublin. The decision to allow Crekav Trading, part of Marlet, to build 104 houses and 432 apartments on land that had been used as six playing pitches for St Paul's College has been challenged. Parties including Clonres CLG, environmental campaigner Peter Sweetman, Mr John Conway, and the Louth Environmental Group argue the permission is fundamentally flawed and seek it quashed. Proceedings also target the State and the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht. The judge, after hearing that the board admitted an error, has set a new hearing for Friday to consider submissions from all parties. The land was owned by the Vincentian Fathers, trustees of St Paul's College, and had been used by local sports clubs.
