Information on dates and venues for these drop in sessions will be made available on the Dublin City Council website. Please check www.dublincity.ie for further updates during the display period.

A 'Pre-Draft Issues Paper' has been prepared to give a broad overview of the main development issues facing the area and to stimulate public debate on what broad planning and development matters should be considered in the new LAP.
