Objective SHO 4 of the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031 seeks 'To promote and facilitate
development that is commensurate with the nature and extent of the existing villages and to support
their role as local service centres and locations for housing.' Additionally, Policy RSDP1 and Section
15.8.10 of the Monaghan County Development Plan, requires the submission of evidence to the
satisfaction of the Planning Authority that there is demand for the proposed residential development
taking account of the extent, nature and status of extant permissions for residential development, and
vacant residential properties in the settlement. Section 15.8.10 also notes that the Planning Authority
may favourably consider proposals for social housing developments which are outside the defined Tier
4 settlement limits where a clear demonstrable need is proven to the satisfaction of the Planning
Authority, and where lands are contiguous to the settlement limit and can be adequately serviced.
The site of the proposed development is substantially located outside the settlement envelope of
Doohamlet village and would not represent a coordinated and consolidated pattern of growth.
Additionally, the applicant has failed to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Planning Authority that
there is a demand for the proposed residential development, either private or social, within the Tier 4
settlement of Doohamlet in accordance with the provisions of Policy RSDP1 and Section 15.8.10.
Consequently, the development, if permitted would be contrary to the provisions of the Policy RSDP1
of the Monaghan County Development Plan 2025-2031 and to the proper planning and sustainable
development of the area.
