Ennis development has been approved for funding from the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government

CLARE County Council have put forward a proposal for 39 new apartments in one busy town.

Six one bedroom apartments, 10 two bedroom apartments, 19 duplex apartments and four three bedroom apartments have been proposed for Francis St in Ennis. 

"The intention is to sell affordable homes in the scheme to qualified applicants," according to the council.

The development has been approved for funding from the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government and forms a key part of Clare County Councils housing strategy to deliver new build homes in Ennis.

The necessary assessments have been completed, such as an archaeological impact and environmental impact surveys, which found that the proposed development location would not hinder either. 

In addition, Irish Water has provided confirmation that water and wastewater connections are feasible for the site. 

Plans and particulars of the proposed development will be available for inspection during office hours from Clare County Council, Áras Contae an Chláir, New Road, Ennis from: 

* Housing Reception from 9.00am to 1.00pm Monday to Friday (excluding weekends and Bank Holidays)
