The scheme is being introduced primarily for the benefit of residents, to ease parking pressures in their area.  The implementation of the scheme involves substantial costs to the Council, including road lining, signage, the provision of parking meters, and continued maintenance and enforcement costs.  The present fee for a parking permit is €48 for an annual permit or €90 for a two-year permit.

An application can be refused on a number of grounds.  The most common reasons are:

• The group did not demonstrate ability to match fund the project
• The group is not constituted and is not a voluntary community group
• The application submitted did not meet the criteria for the grant.
• The application is vague and does not have enough information to allow the grant to be approved.
• Business organisations not eligible for community grants
• The group applied for the same funding under another grant application within the Dun Laoghaire County Council. 

During the summer months an RFA form is delivered to householders for completion and returned to us so the register can be updated.   If you are not included on this form your name will be removed from the Register as only persons listed as ordinarily residing at this address are included on the Register.

Your property / structure was been recommended for inclusion onto the Record of Protected Structures “in order to protect a structure, or part of a structure, of special architectural, historical, archaeological, artistic, cultural, scientific, social or technical interest” (Section 54 of the Planning and Development Act, 2000, as amended).

A notice was issued to owners/occupiers of properties/structures recommended to be added to the RPS at Draft Plan stage. The notice issued states whether the recommendation was made by the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage or by the Planning Authority.

Properties / structures recommended for addition by the Minister resulted from surveys carried out for part of the County. More specific details for a particular structure can be found in the surveys of the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage: here.

Properties / structures recommended for addition by the Planning Authority were as a result of either - submissions received at pre-draft stage (see pre-draft CE Report for details), Motions from Elected Members (see Special Meetings from December 15-18th 2020), the property / structure was brought to our attention during the preparation of the current County Development Plan 2016-2022 or when dealing with planning applications since the adoption of the current Plan.

Further details with regard to Protected Structures can be found here on the Conservation section of our website.

The surveys carried out by the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage for part of the County were not fully completed prior to the adoption of the current County Development Plan 2016-2022.

The proposed amendments, or material alterations, resulted from:
• A recommendation in the Chief Executive’s Report on Draft Plan Consultation,
• A motion proposed by an Elected Member, and/or
• A combination of the above.
