Planning analysis

Refusal reasons and planning conditions extracted from the public decision file.

Refusal reasons

Traffic Sightlines

Intensification of commercial activity and additional traffic on a narrow cul-de-sac road with poor horizontal and vertical alignment endangers public safety and injures adjacent amenities.

Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended)
narrow nature of the public road and its poor horizontal and vertical alignment would endanger public safety by reason of traffic hazard.
Visual Amenity

Elevated, exposed site with bulk/scale of building and yard would be visually obtrusive in the rural landscape, setting an undesirable precedent for similar commercial developments on unzoned lands.

Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended)
proposed development would represent a visually obtrusive feature in the landscape that would be clearly visible when viewed over a wide area
Other

Existing unauthorised infilling, regrading, and open machinery storage on site means permitting further development would be contrary to orderly development and seriously injure area amenities.

Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended); Schedule 2, Planning and Development Regulations 2001 (as amended)
existing unauthorised development which has taken place on site to-date, it is considered that to permit further development on this site would not be in accordance with the orderly development of the area
Wastewater Percolation

Poor percolation, high water table, ponding issues, and reliance on off-site effluent removal on a vulnerable aquifer would constitute disorderly development prejudicial to public health.

Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended)
poor onsite percolation properties, the high water table and ponding issues, the dependency on a foul effluent holding tank... would constitute a disorderly form of development, which would be prejudicial to public health
