Appeal lodged against housing development in Tallanstown
An Bord Pleanála to decide
The decision by Louth County Council to grant planning permission for a new housing development of eight houses in Tallanstown has been appealed to An Bord Pleanála.
Louth County Council granted planning permission to Rainberry Limited in December for the development at Rathbrist Rd, Tallanstown, Co Louth.
The proposed development comprises eight, two-storey, three bed dwellings, six of which are semi-detached, and two detached. The planning application also provides for items including connection and extension to existing road and footpath network and all associated siteworks.
Significant further information provided to the local planning authority ahead of the planning decision included an amendment to the site layout, boundary planting and landscaping; revised dwelling plans; and amended drainage details to the layout. Planning permission was granted for the development on 2 December, subject to 13 planning conditions.
A third party appeal against the decision was made to An Bord Pleanála on 7 January by Dianne & Aidan Crosby, for reasons including the loss of privacy due to fears that two of the proposed houses would overlook their property.
