Owners of the apartments from Parkwest claim the department 'made promises' to establish an emergency fund for the buildings
RESIDENTS OF THE Crescent Apartment Building in Parkwest, Co Dublin have called on the Minister for Housing Darragh O’Brien to provide them with emergency funding after fire defects worth over €68,000 were found in 2020.
In October, the apartment owners voted “overwhelmingly” against a proposal to pay the levy to fix the fire safety defects which could allow a fire to spread rapidly through the development, according to the Dublin Fire Brigade. One resident, Lorcan, said: “We’re here today to find out where our funding is so we can get communal areas and our apartments, our homes, back without being impacted.”Lorcan told The Journal outside the Dáil today thatthe group was promised by the Housing Minister that the department committed to funding “within weeks”.
According to the statement given to The Journal, the working group that was set up to establish these codes of practice is “nearing completion” and will publish a draft in the “coming weeks”.
