1. Policy LDRP 1 / Section 15.8.8 of the County Development Plan 2025-2031 set out that residential
development on lands zoned as 'proposed Residential B' shall be low density. The proposed
development is considered of excessive density and contrary to the established character and
pattern of development in the area. The proposed development would therefore be contrary to
the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031, and contrary to the proper planning and
sustainable development of the area.
2. Policy RAP 1 / Section 15.22.2 of the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031 set out that
all developments must have regard to the potential impact upon the residential amenity of existing
and permitted residential land uses in the vicinity of the development. The proposed
development, by virtue of building line and proximity to neighbouring development, is considered
of poor layout/design and resulting in an overbearing impact and one which would be injurious to
neighbouring established residential amenity. The proposed development would therefore be
contrary to the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031, and contrary to the proper
planning and sustainable development of the area.
