its the same old rubbish they always engage in. Lopping off floors ……… DCC have been doing this for years.
Em, helllleau, where have you been for the last five years? .. not in Dublin, I take it. Modifying development went off DCC’s radar sometime back in 2004. Make hay while the sun shines was it. If you can think of a major scheme DCC truncated / curtailed / redesigned since then, please let me know. Scenario almost without exception went as follows: applicant comes in with ridiculous OTT overdense proposal in spirit of the times→ DCC does dance with rubber stamp→scheme gets hammered on appeal.

Helleau yourself!:) DCC might have been on a hiatus for a few years but from the 1960s-2000s, they lopped floors off pretty much every development.
In the spirit of the Celtic Tiger they began to rubber-stamp, but, now that everybody is anti-developer they are simply reverting to type to vainly show that they are being tough!
