Newspaper article re Zoning

Parishioners may have seen an article in the papers about the Archdiocese of Dublin submitting proposals to Dublin City Council in relation to it's Draft Development Plan and the rezoning of many church lands from Z15 to Z1 zoning use. It should be pointed out that such a request was not run past any of the parishes involved, including our own, which was a mistake by the diocese. It should also be noted that decisions in relation to parochial lands can only be made by the Parish Priest of the day after consultation with the Parish Finance Committee, the Parish Pastoral Council and the Archbishop. There are no plans for the lands around St. Paul's Church. The Parish Pastoral Council and I have separately conveyed our concerns re the way this matter was handled by the diocese.      Fr.Eoin
