Re: Housing Development Plan
Planning application details ref: 2660126
Objections:
1. Existing Traffic Hazzard - the public road at the location of the proposed site. The
access road itself is a major traffic hazzard with inadequate site distance and roadside
development.
2. The provision of the site development access head with limited site distance at the
above location creating additional traffic movements would seriously exacerbate the
existing major traffic hazzard.
3. The failure to provide the necessary approval traffic management audit in relation to
this proposed development.
4. The failure to provide the necessary environmental management audit report in
particular to the protection of the existing established hedgerows and habitats.
5. The inadequate provision of the very necessary open space.
6. The unacceptable:
(a) overseeing (b) loss of privacy (c) property devaluation of the boundary property site Nos:
25 to 22 Killyconnigan from the provision of the proposed 3 storey houses.
1. The possible interference and destruction of the existing boundary hedgerows which
is not in the full ownership of the applicant.
2. The grossly excessive housing density proposal.
3. The misleading information provided on the site ownership.
4. The direct conflict with the directions of the Planning Authority that detached
Bungalows only be provided on the Killyconnigan site.
5. The great need for the retention of open space in this area.

Planning Permission Terms & Conditions - Gortakeeghan / Killyconnigan, Monaghan
The townlands of Gortakeeghan and Killyconnigan is deemed private residential only for
detached bungalows or 1.5 storey bungalows. They are not deemed for semi-detached or 2
storey buildings.
The owner must start building within 6 mths of the site purchase date.
The owner must live in the premises for 7 years before selling the property.
The sites in this area were made available to buy as starter homes or for people in council
houses who wanted to build their own homes as this would free up the council houses. There
were grants available to enable this.
Question asked: Can I build a terrace house on land zoned residential for bungalows?
Answer: Building terrace houses on land zoned exclusively for private bungalows is highly
unlikely to be permitted without a formal approved change of use through the local authority
planning permission process.
Such a development is considered a material change or a significant departure from the local
development plan which usually aims to protect the existing character of the area.
Bungalow only restriction if the land is subject to specific planning conditions or a zoning
designation that limits development to a single storey detached building a terrace or a row of
houses violates that restriction.
