Refused plan for crematorium at ex-Tayto site challenged

A High Court challenge has been taken against An Bord Pleanála's refusal to grant planning permission for a crematorium at the site of the former Tayto factory in Coolock, Dublin.

However, DCC's decision to give the proposed electric crematorium the go-ahead was overturned by the board last February on the grounds that the crematorium would"materially contravene" the zoning of the site, as set out in the Dublin City Development Plan 2022-2028. The proposed crematorium would be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area, An Bord Pleanála concluded.The applicant claims in judicial review proceedings challenging the decision that the board made"a fundamental legal error" in its finding that the crematorium contravenes the development plan.

The applicant said that the decision is unlawful, because it allegedly relied on non-statutory guidance from the UK. It had claimed that the applicant failed to properly assess the development's impact of the crematorium on the food production facility.
