Planning scale and individual notice or phase quantities remain separate. Notice quantities are not added into a development total or completion percentage.
The council’s formal grounds for this decision. Planner assessment and later appeal outcomes are separate.
Source note: The original final schedule repeats ground 1 as ground 3. All five numbered grounds are reproduced in their original order.
The site of the proposed development is located within the Area of Strong Urban Influence as defined in the Limerick Development Plan 2022-2028. On the basis of the information submitted it is considered that the applicants have not demonstrated that they come within the scope of the housing need criteria as set out in Objective HO O20 (Rural Areas under Strong Urban Influence) of the Development Plan and as such, the proposed development would materially contravene objective HO O20 of the Limerick Development Plan 2022-2028 in relation to rural settlement, militate against the preservation of the rural environment and would be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
Official final decision · PDF page 2The proposed development would result in a fifth house and the creation of an infill site within a continuous 250m section of road within a rural area which would constitute ribbon development in this rural area to the detriment of the rural character of the area and would be likely to give rise to demands for the provision of urban type services which would be both uneconomic and inappropriate to provide. The proposed development would therefore be contrary to the Sustainable Rural Housing Guidelines for Planning Authorities (2005), Table DM5 of the Limerick Development Plan (2022-2028) and the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.

Official final decision · PDF page 2In the absence of appropriate documentation and drawings the planning authority cannot be satisfied that the proposed development would not endanger public safety by reason of traffic hazard because the traffic movements generated by the proposed development where the sightlines are restricted would interfere with the safety and free flow of traffic on the public road.
Official final decision · PDF page 2The applicant is proposing to connect to an existing Uisce Eireann public water supply. In the absence of a pre-connection enquiry the planning authority cannot be satisfied that the proposal would not be prejudicial to public health and therefore would be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
