Planning sought from Donegal County Council for Bundoran daycare centre
Daycare centre planned for people with intellectual disabilities
Planning permission is being sought from Donegal County Council for a day care centre for people with intellectual disabilities in Bundoran.
Listed applicant, Bundoran Rentals Ltd, has applied for the change of use of Unit 6A at Bundoran Retail Centre, from a play centre to a day service centre for people with intellectual disabilities and alteration to the internal layout of the unit.
Included in the proposal are the construction of windows to the side and rear elevations, and a fire escape/access door to the rear, construction of an access ramp and external step to the rear of the building to create access to the lower external level, and all associated site development works.
Paul Doherty Architects Ltd, on behalf of the applicant, stated: “As this application is for a change of use of an existing vacant unit to provide a daycare centre, and as the number of people attending the daycare centre, and the number of proposed employees will be greatly reduced from the number of daily visitors to the previously approved use, the car parking requirement for this proposal will be considerably less than previously granted.”
Donegal County Council has set a decision due date for the application for April 22.
