CityWest centre gets the green light

Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2004 / November 11 2004: CityWest centre gets the green light

South Dublin County Council last night voted to allow a €50 million convention centre, previously rejected by An Bord Pleanála, to be built at CityWest in Dublin. As part of a special meeting of the council, members voted by 21 to 3 to allow Mr Jim Mansfield, the property's developer, to conclude construction of the centre, which is already half built. Mr Mansfield's associates, building firm HSS, has had two convictions in relation to planning successfully brought against them by South Dublin County Council. Opposing the development, Green Party councillor Mr Fintan McCarthy said that the infrastructure was not in place in the locality to support such a project.
