SDCC — Resident-Permit In-Process Defence
SDCC operates Residential (€20/12 months), Visitor (€30/12 months) and Commercial (€60/month) permits administered via info@sdps.ie. Where a resident has applied for a permit and the application was in process at the date of the FCN — but the permit had not yet issued — the appellant has a strong mitigation ground.
Legal basis
South Dublin County Council Control of Parking Bye-Laws 2021; SDCC parking-services policy (info@sdps.ie).
How to identify this in your case
Resident FCN holders with an in-process residential permit application supported by an email confirmation from sdps.ie.
