And rightly so…Local Authorities are great for breaching their own Development Plans – they do it all the time in the country… you find loads of guff about protecting the landscape & reducing the need for car journeys in county Development Plans, but they just grant permission for hundreds of bungalows every year…it’s fucking hilarious
Only when you go to An Bord Pleanala is a local Development Plan abided by…..and so a high building that Dublin City Council have granted permission for in the inner city is refused….

they should be in the one place, like La Defense in Paris
