An Bord Pleanala has given the green light for plans for a €190m build to rent scheme on lands formerly owned by a nuns’ order in Dundrum, south Dublin.

The appeals board has granted planning to Lioncor Developments in spite of recommendations by its own inspector and Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council to refuse planning permission as the scheme is on lands zoned as “Institutional Lands’ and didn’t provide sufficient open space to comply with that designation.
