Officer's Report

Approval was granted in 2004 for the construction of a single storey extension to the side of Ballaleece Farm, St Johns. This application proposes the construction of an extension of differing design but in the same location as that granted approval. The extension would be constructed to the side elevation with pitched roof to the front elevation and flat roof to the rear. The proposal is considered to be acceptable.

The Department of Transport Highways Division do not oppose the development and the MEA request that a standard note be added to any subsequent approval.

It is considered that the Department of Transport Highways Division accord with the provisions of Planning Circular 1/06 and are accorded Interested Party Status.
