Almost 100 homes approved for Clonmel
An Coimisiún Pleanála has given the green light to the development earmarked for Abbey Farm in Clonmel
The go-ahead has been given for the development of 96 houses in Clonmel.
An Coimisiún Pleanála has given the green light to the development earmarked for Abbey Farm. Tipperary County Council had given planning permission for the development in December and that decision was appealed to An Coimisiún Pleanála.
The development is located in the townlands of Inishlounaght and Ballingarrane South, to the south of Cahir Road (R707) and to the west of the Gort Na Manach estate.
The applicants are Melclon Unlimited Company and the development consists of 96 (semi-detached, detached and terraced) houses, comprising seven two-bed houses, 53 three-bed houses and 36 four-bed houses.
It also includes a two-storey childcare facility and an associated outdoor play area.
There is also provision for two potential future access links on the southeastern and western boundaries.
Planners making the decision said that, subject to compliance with 21 conditions attached , the proposed development would be acceptable in terms of traffic safety and convenience and would not seriously injure the residential or visual amenities of the area or of property in the vicinity. The proposed development would, therefore, be in accordance with the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
