The proposed amendments relate to the ground floor units, podium car parks and plant areas and not relating to any residential unit. The proposed amendments include: 1.Amendments to the permitted Ground Floor of the Northern Podium (below Blocks A1, A2, A3, B1, E1 & E2) as follows: •Revisions to car park to include revised access route to apartment stair cores, access to bin stores, rearrangement of plant rooms, fire rated enclosure to electric scooter storage to meet fire certificate compliance. This results in an additional 1 no. car parking space in the northern podium bringing total to 164 no. spaces (inc. 2 car club and 6 accessible spaces). •Amendment to permitted access doors, below Block A1, to East Road frontage to include for recessed entrance doors to meet DAC compliance. •Amalgamation and change of use of units (identified as Office Units 1 & 2) of permitted commercial units to Tenant Management Office & Co-Working Space of 217 sq.m. •Removal of unused comms room and external plantroom. •Change of use of unit (identified as Office 5) from permitted commercial space to a tenant amenity space to accommodate a gym of 202.9 sq.m. •Use of previously identified mechanical plant room below Block A1 as staff facilities including, a kitchenette, locker room, accessible bathroom and accessible shower room. •Subsequent revisions to external facade doorways on the southern elevation of the Northern Podium as a result of the above changes. 2.Amendments to the permitted Ground Floor of the Southern Podium (below Blocks D1, D2, B2, C1 & C2) as follows: •Relocation of access stair route to podium level of Blocks D1/D2 and C2. •Relocation of permitted ESB Substation, meters and switch room from ground floor of Block D1 to ground floor of Block C2 and replacement with dry good store related to food hub unit and addition of additional ESB substation and switch room under podium between Block C1 and B2 resulting in a minor reduction in the floorspace of permitted office space. •Amendments to car park to include fire rated enclosure provided from electric scooter storage and charging, rearrangement of plant room below Block D1/D2, addition of wet riser room below Block D2 for fire certificate compliance. The addition of the wet riser room has resulted in the removal of some bike parking at this location however this has been accommodated in other locations so there is no reduction in permitted cycle parking provision. •Removal of unused comms room resulting in a minor increase in the tenant amenity space below Block C2. •The reconfiguration of the internal podium layout results in the loss of 5 no. car parking spaces bringing the total in the southern podium to 66 no. spaces (inc. 5 accessible spaces). •Subsequent revisions to external facade doorways on the southern elevation of the Northern Podium as a result of the above changes. The above minor amendments have resulted in some alteration to permitted floor areas in the ground floor units however there is no increase in overall permitted floor area.
