Planning and development law / Garrett Simons.

Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Planning and Development Law is an up-to-date expansive practitioner's guide to the Planning and Development Acts 2000 to 2002. It is a must-have for those who require an analysis of the legal issues arising in relation to town planning. Providing exhaustive coverage of this continually evolving area of practice, it is a unique and authoritative work on the subject. It combines a comprehensive overview of the Planning and Development Acts with a detailed consideration of the areas of greatest relevance to legal practitioners and students, namely appeals and referrals to An Bord Pleanala; judicial review proceedings; and enforcement proceedings. The practice and procedure in relation to making a claim for compensation under the planning legislation is also dealt with. It also contains individual chapters in respect of development plans and local area plans; development and exempted development; the application for planning permission; the decision; and the grant of planning permission. Matters such as protected structures; areas of architectural conservation; quarries; events and funfairs; and strategic development zones, are addressed in a separate chapter on special controls.
