Planning Notes: 3Arena appeal increased capacity plan at Citiwest

The operators of the 3Arena are among appellants in relation to recent permission for increased audience capacity for concerts at the Citywest centre in south Dublin.

South Dublin County Council gave conditional permission for the expansion of capacity from an upper limit of less than 4,200 to 6,000 patrons at the Citywest Hotel and Conference Centre in Saggart.

The application of Cape Wrath Hotel Ltd last December was supplemented by significant further information in April, in response to local authority request.
