The judge warned that elected members, in considering land zoning issues, “need to be aware, and ideally reminded by officials, dubious comments should be ideally identified and withdrawn”. The Fingal councillors changed the site zoning which prescribes the intended land use from “Dublin Airport” to “community infrastructure”. The former objective aims to facilitate air transport infrastructure and airport related activities, while the latter guides a site for community facilities or spaces.

The airport authority included councillors’ statements about “supporting” ALSAA to get it “ready for the next stage when the DAA are going to come along and try to take that building off them”.
