A north county Dublin residents group has called on Fingal County Council to refuse planning permission for daa's new plans for an observation point for plane spotters.
A planning report lodged with the application states that the proposed development represents"an important investment in community facilities" at Dublin Airport and will contribute"to a safer, more comfortable and more inclusive plane-spotting experience by providing amenities for users". The report says the aircraft observation facility will offer a number of benefits to the airport, the aviation community, and the wider public including enhancing safety; promoting education and boosting local tourism and community engagement.
"It’s worth noting that the daa has an extensive landbank under utilised that is zoned Dublin Airport ", he said. The objection states that the proposed site only has 22 car parking spaces which seems very low compared to the current usage at peak times.
