High Court refuses an application for leave to appeal its previous judgment which upheld An Bord Pleanála's decision to grant planning permission for a 232-unit apartment development. The Court found no points of law of exceptional public importance that would warrant an appeal. The applicants had challenged the decision on several grounds, including the interpretation of development plans, adequacy of reasons provided by the Board, and enforcement of planning conditions. The Court determined that the principles applied in the substantive judgment were well established and did not involve any uncertainty or exceptional public importance that would necessitate an appeal.
