What the documents establish

Government document review

Council decision to grant dated 24 August 2026 for amendments to D25A/0004/WEB and D25A/0542/WEB. The 4,300 m² figure is site area. Selected Block B balustrades must be retained and Block A service-wall dimensions revised; final grant and written compliance agreement are not established.

3 official documents inspected · Checked 2026-09-07 · Official file index

This is an amendment on a 4,300 m² site

Council decision recorded; final grant not established · Exact amendment D26A/0497/WEB; site area distinct from floor area

What the evidence says
The 24 August decision concerns amendments to permissions D25A/0004/WEB and D25A/0542/WEB. The stated 4,300 m² is site area. Condition 2 retains the parent conditions and expiry; no additional residential-unit total is established here.

Why it may matter — interpretation
For planners and estimators: compare this amendment with the parent permissions rather than counting another development or using its site area as building floor space.

What is not established
This decision notification is not a final grant. No commencement, completion, additional units, gross floor area or procurement award is established by this review.

does not authorise works

The decision retains selected Block B balustrades

Council decision recorded; final grant not established · Block B south gable only; August decision condition overrides this part of June P-252

What the evidence says
Although the application drawing proposes removal of window balustrades, condition 3(b) requires revised drawings retaining the balustrades at the two windows across the first and second floors of Block B’s south gable, facing the main Quinn’s Road entrance.

Why it may matter — interpretation
For façade designers and metalwork estimators: the decision preserves a specific balustrade element that the submitted amendment proposed removing.

What is not established
Written agreement to revised drawings, final grant, product details, final quantities, appointment and installation are not established. The submitted drawing cannot be treated as an unqualified construction instruction.

Block A service-wall dimensions need an agreed revision

Council decision recorded; final grant not established · Block A service walls in P-203; no replacement dimensions inferred

What the evidence says
Condition 3(a) requires revised drawings reducing the height or length of the 2m front/side service walls shown in P-203 inset2 and inset4, with written council agreement before works.

Why it may matter — interpretation
For civil and landscape designers: the ESB/service-wall arrangement must be coordinated with the entrance, bicycle storage and boundary treatment after the required revision.

What is not established
The agreed replacement wall dimensions and subsequent compliance drawing are not established. The 2m submitted walls are not a confirmed final design or an available work package.
