    Businesses in an industrial estate on the northside of Dublin say they are facing an uncertain future due to Dublin City Council's plans to redevelop the area for housing. Under the Ballyboggan Masterplan, the local authority plans to rezone 77 hectares of industrial land - between Glasnevin and Cabra - to develop 6,000 homes. However, some businesses say they are having trouble finding areas to relocate to and are calling on the council to help them source alternative sites.
