Article removed from Ebay. What was it about? :confused: The topic title made me curious ; was it some nasty picture being sold on eBay or so?
It was a petition of sorts, about a property development issue. Posted on eBay. Duh.

Subject: Residential, commercial and marina development at North Beach Greystones Co. Wicklow
Dear Sir/madam
Residential, commercial and marina development at North Beach Greystones Co. Wicklow
I oppose the granting of permission for the above development and the confirmation of the compulsory purchase orders required to facilitate the development based on the Additional Information submitted to the Board on 25th October 2006 for the reasons set out below.
Greystones harbour is the heart of the town and important amenity for its residents and for visitors. The community is united in wanting a sensitive refurbishment of the harbour, which enhances the character of the area. This development fails to achieve this and precludes any such development in the future. It is therefore unsustainable.
The development will have significant negative environmental impacts and constitutes improper planning and unsustainable development of the harbour and north beach area.
The residential and commercial component is excessive in size and will severely restrict the views to the north and west from the harbour area thereby destroying the amenity of the area.
The size and scale of the proposed buildings are completely out of keeping with the existing buildings. This will destroy the character of the harbour area.
The development will generate volumes of traffic, both during construction and after completion, which are well beyond the capacity of the existing road network.
The development involves the sale of a public beach for commercial development, against the wishes of the community. This is undemocratic and unacceptable and sets a dangerous precedent for the rest of the country.
The proposal to dig up and relocate part the dump is unacceptable. The dump should be removed completely.
The proposed beach nourishment program is impractical, economically and environmentally unsound and will cause permanent, significant disruption in the town.
The modifications included in the revised plans submitted on 25th October 2006 do not in any meaningful way address the concerns expressed by the community in their submissions of the original development or the issues raised at the previous oral hearing.
I therefore request that the Board refuse permission for this development. I also request that the Board holds an oral hearing and that I be given the opportunity to make representations at that hearing.
