Councillor Gogarty welcomed the development as "a much needed amenity building" and said he would "find it a useful location for holding public meetings" . Mr Gogarty said there is a large islamic community in lucan and south dublin , that he regularly attended events in the existing mosque which he found to be "quite cramped" .
Councillor Madeleine Johansson of people before profit said she welcomed this development in particular , that it would "enhance the local community and provide much needed facilities for the muslim community"
Local Parish Priest Fr John Laizer from the Church of Divine Mercy said it was "a fine development" .... "I believe this is a fine development not only for the islamic community but also for the greater community in the area , they are welcome to use our church car park at any time they need overflow capacity" said Fr Laizer
Michael O'Brien , CEO of the South Dublin Football League described the development as "exciting" , Mr O'Brien said the development would "greatly enhance the area" and the football league would support it in every way possible . ... "The news that the muslim community are engaging in providing facilities for their youth and community is very exciting and will greatly enhance the area . we will make our facilities and car park available to them whenever the need arisis and continue to support them in every way possible"
A number of objections were lodged against the proposed development including a petition signed by over 200 local residents .
An Objection from The Balgaddy Working Together Community group included a petition of more than 200 signatures from Local Residents opposed to the development .
The objection cited local concerns regarding traffic and parking congestion , loss of mature trees , visual impact on the area , noise pollution from call to prayer , overshadowing of properties , lack of sports facilites within the development for locals and limited public transport to and from area. The residents also expressed concerns about the availability of the mosque facilities to the local community such as the Childcare Centre , School , Library, Health centre and offices which they argue are for those of the Islamic faith. In a seperate objection one resident wrote they would have to consider moving out of the area due to traffic congestion .
