## Conditions

### Condition 1

First Schedule
Reasons & Consierations
Having regard to the Objective A zoning of the site, and policies and objectives as set out in the 2022-2028 Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Development Plan, it is considered that the development would not detract from the amenities of the area and is consistent with the provisions of the current Development Plan and is therefore considered to be in accordance with the proper planning and sustainable development of the area subject to conditions.

Appropriate Assessment Screening
The proposed development has been screened for AA (report on file) and it has been determined that the development to be retained and completed would not significantly impact upon a Natura 2000 Site.

Environmental Impact Assessment Screening
Having regard to the nature and scale of the development to be retained and completed, which comprises a five storey apartment block in a fully serviced urban location, it is considered that there is no real likelihood of significant effects on the environment arising from the proposed development. The need for environmental impact assessment can, therefore, be excluded at preliminary examination and as such a screening determination is not required.

Second Schedule
Conditions

1. The development shall be retained and completed in its entirety in accordance with the plans, particulars and specifications lodged with the application, save as may be required by the other conditions attached hereto.
REASON: To ensure that the development shall be in accordance with the permission and that effective control be maintained.

2. For the avoidance of doubt, this permission shall not be construed as approving any development shown on the plans, particulars and specifications, the nature and extent of which has not been adequately stated in the statutory public notices.
REASON: In the interest of clarity, and to comply with permission regulations.

3. Save for amendments granted on foot of this permission, the development shall otherwise be retained in strict accordance with the terms and conditions of Planning Permission Reg. Ref. D18A/1175, ABP 304641-19, save as may be required by the other conditions attached hereto.
