Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council and the Land Development Agency welcome the decision of the Elected Members to approve the disposal of part of the lands at Shanganagh to the Land Development Agency, for the development of 306 cost-rental homes. A total of 597 new homes will be developed on the site, including 200 social and 91 affordable sale.
