New housing plan for Nenagh

A development company planning to build 31 residential units in Nenagh has lodged its planning application with Tipperary Co Council.

Baile Ard Developments Ltd is planning construction of the units on a site adjacent to a protected structure at Silver View (upper Silver St/Ciamaltha Road). The plan is for 15 two-bed houses and 12 three-bed houses in six two-storey terraced buildings, and four one-bed units in a two-storey building. Agreement in principle has been reached to provide seven units to the council under Part V of the Planning & Development Act.

A new vehicular and pedestrian entrance is also planned, together with all roads, footpaths, underground services, connection to public services, surface water attenuation, car-parking, public open space, public lighting and associated site boundary and site development works.

The council informed the developer that the application was invalid as an incorrect townland was indicated on the public notices for the development. The correct townland is "Nenagh North."

The developer has since submitted a new application and it has been validated by the council. A decision is due by May 18 next.
