Check out page 5 of this. It's some draft plan for the redevelopment of Richmond Rd. Tolka is marked as an area under zoning objectives as: To preserve, provide and improve recreational amenity and open space.
Does that reduce the value of the land?:confused:
Not sure, I think the plan was always to have recreational space there.
Hope it does though
Hugely. i would imagine land zoned like that is only worth a fraction of what it would if zoned for residential use.Quote:

Yes, very much soQuote:

there is 8 weeks for submissions from the public then there will be a manager's report. Will be intersting to see if Oily has anything to add..
Would Shels have enought money left to upgrade Santry Stadium to EUFA Licence standard? They have plans to knock down the terracing in Santry and build corporate boxes and a new bar.
My favourite bit from Bad Mongo's post on gypoweb - "I’ll leave it at that as I am sure there will be more in-depth discourse on this very topic over on Shelsweb." :DQuote:

No change there so.
Tolka Park hasn't been very densely occupied lately, even on Shels matchnights.;)
Obvious I know but I couldn't resist
Yep High density is where the money is. It will be great news for the residents of Drumcondra though. Funny how planning is done sensibly in Bertie's back yard eh?
iirc the Irish Athletics people broke off talks with Shels about Santry a couple of weeks ago due to Shels financial situation.Quote:

Shels to Tallaght then?
Once we've seen off the Thomas Davis bigots it'll be a straight race between Shels and Pats for the second spot in Tallaght.Quote:

Whether in the long term Bohs would let them rent their spanking new facilities in Harristown is very debatable. As regards Pats to Tallaght, I doubt it.Quote:

A. He'd probably have some excuse for not paying the rent.
B. He'd claim squatters rights.
WAR, surely you're not suggesting that the builder owner of Pats will want to move away from Inchicore, especially not now he can offer a remaining presence on Emmet Road in the form of McDowells as sop to the fans?
What builder/developer? ;)Quote:

The ground (or at least the long term lease on it) is owned by several people. None of which are builders. The club's majority shareholder is (thoughj not to the extent I previously thought, having looked into it more) Funnily enough the last 3 people who've talked to the board about "investing" have been builders. None of them hung around that long
