Evidence
Only exact linked records appear here. A missing appeal, commencement or completion entry means that evidence has not been established on this page. It does not prove that the event never happened.
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.
It is considered that the applicant does not meet the requirements set out under Section 4.9.5 Volume 1 of the Wexford County Development Plan 2022-2028. Furthermore, the detached self-contained residential unit development is not in accordance with the policy as set out in Section 3.3 'Self-contained Residential Unit for a Family Member' contained in Volume 2 of the Wexford County Development Plan 2022-2028. This policy requires that the unit must be attached to the main dwelling house and must be accessible from the main dwelling house via an internal access door. The development is therefore contrary to this policy and contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
Official final decision · PDF page 2The proposed log cabin does not comply with rural housing policy and Section 4.9.6 of Volume 1 of the Wexford County Developmet Plan 2022-2028. The site has a total size of 0.19Ha which already includes the existing dwelling and two shed/storage structure. The proposal does not have its own site edged in red and does not comply with minimum site size requirements. The site is also not served by its own water and wastewater treatment system.
Official final decision · PDF page 2The proposed detached dwelling does not comply with the minimum site size for detached rural dwellings as set out in Table 3-3 of Volume two of the Wexford County Development Plan 2022- 2028.
Official final decision · PDF page 2As the applicant has proposed a separate dwelling it would require a separate and distinct connection to both water and wastewater treatment system. Connection to the existing water and wastewater infrastructure on site is not acceptable. As such the proposed development would be prejudicial to public health and therefore contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
