Not in my golf course
People deserve amenities.
It is baffling that there are any, let alone so many, golf courses inside the M50.
Privileged arseholes.
Reserving prime Land in or near the city for a golf course is height of bad land usage. All golf courses should be built well outside the city. They are just too big to be an efficient use of land.
Housing is far more important.
It’s met eireann fault the weather warnings didn’t mention flooding and not the government’s fault they didn’t push ahead with flood defences.
It’s golf clubs fault that the government have a hopeless housing policy.
Folks stop falling for the distractions.
Housing is the government’s fault.
Theres some very central golf courses that would be perfect places for housing in Dublin. Stepaside isnt one of them.
Is this the golf course they bought a while ago with members getting significant payouts?
All golf courses within Dublin should be made available for housing, or converted to open parks, ideally a combination of both
A tinge of Greta Thunburg “how dare you” off this rather than the opposite.
Golf courses are some of the worst use cases for land there is
Its not even like they’re spaces that are open to the public as parkland. They’re essentially closed off the the use of a relatively small number of people.
Sorry if you do enjoy golf but having the course surrounded by or situated next to built up areas is a waste of space. The golf courses should be far out in the countryside and the former golf courses turned into housing and public parkland
Stepaside is an inexpensive course any can play. Of course it’s a target over the likes of Milltown where rich people play
A Nintendo Wii and some Wii sports for these C*nts and get to building
Miltown, Castle golf club, the Grange, Clontarf and Royal County Dublin are all much more aggregious misuses of land within the city.
We don’t need our little island covered in concrete! Who are these houses for!? there was just a post about people not having kids, so is there any point in building houses for a generation that isn’t going to be replaced?
Stepaside is a brilliant public course. Very friendly staff, quite cheap, driving range on site also. Went quite regularly over the summer when I took up the sport. Massive difference in price compared to full length private courses, which makes it accessible for anyone to play.
They’ve already built a ton of new builds and apartments up in the surrounding area already- personally I think it would be a shame if they got rid of course
Designating land outside the M50 on the slopes of the Dublin mountains, for what will be apartment blocks, when there is vast amounts of low-rise and derelict housing in the city centre is completely nuts. These parts of the city should be mostly kept as amenities and not coated in concrete sprawl – it’s not just golf, it’s hiking, mountain biking, horse riding, pitch & putt, somewhere to bring grannie & whatever else. Not to mention the public transport nightmare it all causes.
The new amenities for enmities policy.
GAA pitches take up far too much space and could be used for housing.
