## Conditions

### Condition 1

Forst Schedule
Reasons and Considerations
Having regard to the 'Residential' zoning of the site as set out in the Cherrywood Planning Scheme, as amended, and 2022 - 2028 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 conditions and accords with the Planning Scheme.

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

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Screening
Having regard to the nature and scale of the proposed development, which comprises an amendment to previously permitted development 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.
