“Decided” counts applications granted, refused or part-granted — withdrawn and invalid applications are excluded. Categories with fewer than 30 decided applications are not listed, because a rate over a handful of applications would not mean anything.

Appeals to An Bord Pleanála

13%

of 45 decided appeals changed the council’s decision, 2015–2026.

Decision upheld
39

6 of 45 decided appeals reversed the council either way. Withdrawn and invalid appeals are excluded, because nothing was decided. Appeals are self-selected — only decisions someone chose to challenge appear here — so this is a record of appealed cases, not a measure of the council’s decisions overall.
