The appeals board approved the apartment plan in spite of the strong recommendation by its own inspector to refuse planning.

An Bord Pleanála has given the go-ahead to the Gillick brothers to construct around 450 build-to-rent apartments on the former Chivers site at Coolock in Dublin.

The appeals board approved Andrew and Maurice Gillick’s Platinum Land Ltd for their apartment plan in spite of the strong recommendation by its own inspector to refuse planning.
