## Conditions

### Condition 1

First Schedule
Reasons and Considerations

Having regard to the residential zoning of the site as set out in the Cherrywood Planning Scheme, as amended, and 2016 - 2022 Dún Laoghaire - Rathdown County Development Plan, it is considered that subject to compliance with the conditions below, the proposed development would not seriously injure the amenities of the area and would not contravene materially the zoning of the application site or that of adjoining sites, subject to (7) conditions.

Appropriate Assessment Screening
