Agenda item :  1 Requesting a Special Meeting of Dublin City Council on Monday 8th July 2024 at 6.15pm, to discuss the proposed prices of the Affordable Purchase homes at Oscar Traynor Woods.

Agenda item :  2 We the undersigned are requesting a Special Meeting of Dublin City Council meeting on 8th July 2024 at 6.15pm to discuss the following motion; "This City Council notes with dismay the communication sent to Councillors from Dublin City Council Housing Development section on 24 June which confirms that the so-called 'affordable' homes in Oscar Traynor Woods are to be sold at prices which cannot be described in any way as affordable. This is in clear breach of the commitments given at the time of the sale of this formerly public land that homes would be affordable and that this scheme would offer to working people the opportunity to purchase homes denied to them in the open market. We request an urgent meeting with Housing Minister Darragh O'Brien to address this issue which raises fundamental questions about the Government's affordable housing policy which it has tasked Dublin City Council to implement."
