Challenge to Permission for Scrap Metal Facility at Cobh Dismissed
#RushbrookeScrap - The High Court has dismissed a challenge to An Bord Pleanála’s grant of permission for construction of a scrap metal processing facility at the former ship-building yard in Cobh, Co Cork.
Mr Justice Seamus Noonan rejected the challenge by local residents aimed at overturning the March 2013 permission for a scrap metal processing facility, waste storage facility and quayside storage at Cork Dockyard, Rushbrooke Commercial Park, Cobh.
There was nothing unreasonable or irrational about the board’s decision, he said.
After Cobh Town Council refused to grant permission for the project, that decision was appealed to An Bord Pleanála.
