The Executive Manager of Dublin City Council (Planning and Registry Decisions, Planning Department) has granted permission to Lidl (Plan No. 2311/13) to extend its opening hours at the Terenure site from 81 to 86.5 hours per week, "in the interest of the proper planning and sustainable development of the area." The development "shall be managed so as to avoid potential conflict between shoppers and drop off/collection associated with [St Joseph's BNS]."
Bord Pleanala had previously restricted the hours of operation to "0800 hours and 1900 hours from Saturday to Wednesday, and between 0800 hours and 2100 hours on Thursday and Friday" in order "to protect the residential amenities of the area" (Bord Pleanala Case reference: PL29S.240744).
The closing date for appeals to Bord Pleanala is Wednesday 28th May 2013.
