1.
Section 15.9.1 (Rural Character) and Policy RCP 1 of the Monaghan County Development Plan
2025-2031 seek to ensure that new rural housing does not further erode the rural character of
an area, having regard to the existing pattern of development and the cumulative impact of
new development.
The proposed development would be located on a site comprising residual lands situated
beside existing and permitted residential development and which has been created as an
individual development plot.
Having regard to the concentration of existing and permitted dwellings in the area, the
incremental subdivision of roadside lands for residential development, and the cumulative
impact of such development on the character of the rural area, it is considered that the
proposal would cause a detrimental impact on, and further erode, the rural character of the
area.
Accordingly, the development would, if permitted, be contrary to Section 15.9.1 (Rural
Character) and Policy RCP 1 of the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031 and be
contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
2.
Section 15.22.5 (On -Site Wastewater Treatment Systems) and Policy WWTP 1 of the
Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031 seek to ensure that on -site wastewater
treatment systems are located and constructed to the highest standards in order to protect
water quality, including groundwater and surface water.
The Environmental Health Officer has raised serious concerns regarding the suitability of the
application site to accommodate an on -site wastewater treatment system and percolation
area, having regard to the low-lying nature of the site. In addition, the Environmental Health
Officer has advised that the necessary remedial works would be required over the entire site
area in order to satisfactorily demonstrate site suitability. Having regard to the information
submitted and the concerns raised, the Planning Authority is not satisfied that the application
site is suitable for the satisfactory treatment and disposal of wastewater arising from the
proposed development.
Accordingly, the development would, if permitted, be contrary to Section 15.22.5 and Policy
WWTP 1 of the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031, be prejudicial to public
health and environmental protection, and be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable
development of the area.

Section 15.10.4 (Domestic Garages, Sheds, Ancillary Outbuildings and Car Ports) and Policy
DGP 1 of the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031 require satisfactory justification
where a domestic garage exceeds 80sqm in floor area. The proposed garage has a floor area of
approximately 115sgm and no satisfactory justification has been submitted for a structure of
this size.
Accordingly, the development would, if permitted, be contrary to Section 15.10.4 and Policy
DGP 1 of the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031 and be contrary to the proper
planning and sustainable development of the area.
