New plans for the redevelopment of Dún Laoghaire baths have been put in motion with councillors last night agreeing to fund a technical examination of the breakwater at the baths. The plans were brought forward in response to massive opposition last year to a proposal for a high-rise development on the site. The new plans include a public swimming pool and the renovation and landscaping of existing walkways. They also suggest commercial uses such as a restaurant, tearooms and facilities for alternative therapies. They specifically exclude high-rise and residential development, which residents had opposed last year. It is stated that the height should not be greater than those of existing buildings.
