Councillor Janice Boylan to host O’Devaney Gardens public meeting

Sinn Féin Councillor for Dublin’s North Inner-City Janice Boylan is to hold a public meeting tonight to discuss the future for the O’Devaney Gardens development plan, following Dublin City Council’s decision last night to defer the planned sale of the land.

Speaking today, Cllr Boylan said,

“Dublin City Council last night opted to defer the current proposed redevelopment of the land.

“Sinn Féin is now calling on all Councillors from a cross the political spectrum to work together to agree a new plan which can meet the community needs and deliver truly affordable homes from local families.

“We just have one opportunity to get this right. It is important that the local community are front and centre to the debate and the discussions on O’Devaney’s future.

“I am therefore encouraging people to come along tonight to the public meeting.”

ENDS//

Note to editors: The public meeting will be held in Prussia Street Parish Centre tonight (Tuesday) at 7.30pm
