The applicants secured “leave” of the court to pursue their claims
Monkstown residents claim An Bord Pleanála allegedly failed to address claims that a 387-home development would exacerbate sewage overflows at the Salthill wastewater pumping station
Among their complaints is that An Bord Pleanála allegedly failed to address claims that the development would exacerbate sewage overflows at the Salthill wastewater pumping station. He gave them permission to seek orders quashing An Bord Pleanála’s grant of planning permission and to intermediary decisions of Uisce Éireann and the Minister for Housing and Heritage. Leave of the court to challenge the intermediary decisions was granted without prejudice to Uisce Éireann and the Minister being allowed to argue that the action against them has been brought too late.
They object to Uisce Éireann’s letter of September 2022 which stated there was capacity available in its wastewater network to facilitate connection of sewers from the new project. The board’s reliance on this invalidates its permission, because discharge goes to an “unauthorised” and “unmonitored” sewer that overflows when it rains, they claim.
