Calculation: 212 kWh/m²/yr × 109 m² = 23,108 kWh/yr (primary energy from the BER band). Primary → delivered uses SEAI DEAP factors (fossil ~1.10, electric ~2.08). Delivered kWh then splits 85% main fuel (Mains Gas) + 15% electricity (lighting + ventilation always run on grid), with standing charges added. The fuel choice is the mode from this Small Area's BER records — single-property accuracy isn't guaranteed.
PROTECTED STRUCTURE: We, Richmond Village Development Company Limited, intend to apply for planning permission for a Large-scale Residential Development (LRD) consisting of modifications to the LRD permission under ACP Ref.: 317438-23 / DCC Reg.

The site includes protected structures under RPS Ref. 2032 (St. Vincent’s Hospital), RPS Ref. 8788 (Richmond House) and RPS Ref. 8789 (Brooklawn). The application site also includes sections of public road and footpaths to facilitate service connections via Griffith Court, Philipsburgh Avenue and Griffith Avenue, part of Grace Park Wood to provide a pedestrian and cycle connection, and works along Richmond Road to facilitate services and associated upgrades. The site is bounded by Grace Park Wood, Griffith Court, Richmond Road and Convent Avenue.
The proposed development will consist of alterations to permitted residential Blocks C, DE, L, and J, to increase the total number of apartments by 27 no., from 354 no. to 381 no., all within the existing permitted building envelopes, with no increase in height, massing or site coverage. The amendments will increase the total number of residential units within the overall development from 779 no. to 806 no. units (37 no. studios, 391 no. 1 bed apartments, 328 no. 2 bed apartments and 50 no. 3 bed apartments).
The proposed modifications consist of the following:
• Block C – Internal reconfiguration to replace 55 sq.m of internal communal amenity space at ground-floor level to provide 1 no. additional one-bed apartment, together with the conversion of 1 no. permitted two-bed apartment to a one-bed apartment. Alterations to permitted landscaping and circulation areas. Associated modifications to the permitted west elevation to provide a new entrance. Net Change: +1 no. one-bed apartment.
• Block DE - Internal reconfiguration and partial replacement of permitted internal communal amenity areas at ground, first and sixth floor levels to provide 7 no. additional apartments (comprising 1 no. studio, 4 no. one-bed and 2 no. two-bed apartments). Works include a revised entrance foyer and provision of a management suite (relocated from Block J), at ground floor level. Associated modifications to permitted elevations including new balconies and revised window arrangements on the south, north and east elevations, omission of permitted external façade shading elements (brise soleil) on the south and east elevations and a new entrance and canopy on the north elevation, and associated alterations to permitted landscaping. Net change: +7 no. apartments.
• Block L - Internal reconfiguration and alterations at ground floor level to replace 1 no. permitted two-bed apartment with 2 no. studio apartments. At first to fourth floor levels, internal reconfiguration to replace 2 no. two-bed apartments and 1 no. three-bed apartment with 2 no. one-bed apartments and 4 no. studio apartments at each level. Associated modifications to permitted elevations including additional balconies and openings on the south and west elevations. Net Change: +13 no. apartments.
• Block J – Replacement of permitted amenity and management areas at ground-floor level to provide 2 no. two-bed apartments and 2 no. one-bed apartments. Internal reconfiguration to provide 2 no. additional two-bed apartments within permitted double-height space at first-floor level. Associated modifications to all permitted elevations, including the provision of a new entrance on the western elevation, alterations to façade articulation, and revised distribution of approved external materials and extension of communal open space. Net Change: +6 apartments.
It is also proposed to omit Condition No’s 5, 6 and 7 of the parent permission (ACP Ref.: 317438-23), which relate to Build-to-Rent (BTR) covenants, in respect of the permitted units within Blocks DE and F, as the proposed amendments seek to change the permitted development from a Build-to-Rent apartment scheme to a standard apartment scheme.
A Natura Impact Statement (NIS) has been prepared for the development and accompanies the planning application.
