South Dublin County Council (SDCC) had no statement to make last night, but one senior official source said the appeals board was the "final arbiter" in planning matters, and it was now "inevitable" that an enforcement notice would be issued to have the unauthorised structure removed. A brief statement from Citywest Hotel described An Bord Pleanála's decision as disappointing.
