ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Note: A pre-application consultation did not take place. You and/or your assigned agent should liaise
with Planning Section prior to the preparation and submission of this Further Information.
1. Flood maps indicate that a small area within the host field may be at risk to pluvial flooding.
Accordingly, please submit an assessment of the flood risk, which clearly demonstrates that
the development would not be at risk of flooding, nor would it exacerbate flooding elsewhere.
Should any residual risks to the development and/or area be identified, please demonstrate
how same would be acceptably managed.
2. In the interest of appropriate design and visual amenity, it is considered that the proposed
house design should be reviewed. Paying specific regard to the proportions and openings,
please submit (a full set of) revised structural drawings indicating a closer reflection of the
design and fenestration features of a “glebe” or small country style house.
The draft rural design guide (available online at www.monaghan.ie/planning) illustrates some
typical steps that can be used to suitably refine the design of a “glebe” or small country style
house.
3. To better integrate the house into the site/setting (see Section 15.9.2 and Table 15.3 of the
County Development Plan 2025-2031), please submit a revised site layout plan showing the
house (measured from the main northwestern gable) relocated a maximum of 15m from the
mature trees and hedgerow defining the northwestern site boundary. This revision may
necessitate a relocation of the proposed wastewater treatment system.
