The additional units are facilitated by the omission of internal tenant amenity spaces at ground and first floor level and reconfiguration of bicycle parking and plant areas. - Blocks B & C: An additional 13no. residential units (4no. 1-bed apartments, 6no. 2-bed apartments and 3no. 2-bed duplex units) at ground floor level in each block; Amendments to the layout of 1no. permitted unit at ground floor level and 3no. permitted apartment units at first floor level; associated adjustments to elevations per block; omission of podium structure (including all undercroft car parking) with communal open space now proposed at grade and increased bicycle parking provision per block. The additional units are facilitated by the omission of internal tenant amenity spaces and the undercroft car park at ground floor level and through reconfiguration of increased bicycle parking and plant areas in each block. All ancillary and associated site development, infrastructure and landscape works including: - reconfiguration and minor increase of on-street car parking and associated adjustments to landscaping; change from pre-cast concrete to aluminium/steel frame system to feature balconies on the eastern and western elevations of each block; adjustment to selected balconies onto the courtyards of each block; overall height reduction of Block A by 1225mm; overall height reduction of Block B & C by 1150mm; minor adjustments to drainage alignment and underground attenuation tank to the east of Block A; minor change to alignment of pavement to the east of Block A and addition of access paths from Blocks B and C east toward the linear park pedestrian / cycle path and additional crossing points on Woodbrook Avenue. The proposed works take place within a development area of 2.52 Ha, which forms part of the wider Phase 1 site of 21.9 Ha. The scheme is as otherwise permitted under An Bord Pleanála Ref. ABP-305844-19 – Woodbrook Phase 1 and would increase by 35no. dwellings from 682no. dwellings to 717no. dwellings overall at Woodbrook Phase 1. Minor amendments are proposed to the site development works of the consented scheme (An Bord Pleanála Ref. ABP- 305844-19) as part of a concurrent planning application under DLRCC Reg. Ref. LRD24A/0382/WEB. None of these works overlap with the work now proposed as part of this amendment to Block A, B and C of An Bord Pleanála Ref. ABP-305844- 19.
