Planning analysis

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

Refusal reasons

Zoning Contravention

Site is zoned 'existing residential'. The zoning objective permits small-scale home-based employment only where the primary residential use is maintained. The proposal does not maintain this primary use.

Clare County Development Plan 2017-2023
zoned ‘existing residential’ ... primary residential use is not maintained
Residential Amenity

The retention would constitute a predominantly commercial undertaking in an established residential area, out of character with the existing development pattern, seriously injuring the amenities of surrounding properties.

Clare County Development Plan 2017-2023
predominantly commercial under-taking in an established residential area ... out of character with the existing pattern of development ... seriously injure the amenities of the property in the vicinity
