Officer's Report
The Site
The site, defined as a red circle, represents land associated with Ballacroak Farm, situated to the north of the Mullinaragher Road, between Mullinaragher itself and Ballajeroi
Planning Status
The site lies within an area designated as white land, that is not designated for development.
Planning History
Two applications have been submitted in respect of this site:
PA 84/0193 - cubicle house, milk storage tank, conversion of cow house to milking parlour and formation of silage pit - permitted
PA 95/1715 - erection of agricultural building with lean-to extension - permitted on appeal.
The Proposal
Proposed here is the replacement of the existing windows in the farmhouse with new ones which are to be plastic framed sliding sash to match the existing except for five small square windows in the sides and rear elevation which are to be single light top and side opening casement windows.
Assessment
The property is some distance from the road but nevertheless the proposal is acceptable and will maintain the appropriate appearance of the property.
Party Status
The Department of Transport and the local authority are, by virtue of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2005, paragraph 6 (5) (c) and (d), considered "interested persons" and as such should be afforded party status despite the former not having submitted views in this instance.
