Changes to housing project
A local construction company is seeking to alter previously approved plans for a housing project in Cavan Town.
Carrickane-registered Galrane Developments Limited, of which Desmond and Mary Brady are listed as directors, have sought to remove house number 14 from the proposed development map at Creighan Manor, located at Creighan and Burgess Acre, and make alterations to sites 1-13.
The submission to planners includes service road and all associated and ancillary works.
In 2019 Galrane Developments was granted permission to build 26 houses - 12 three-bed semi-detached houses of differing designs, and 16 four-bed semi-detached houses.
Permission was granted with a total of 19 conditions attached, to include that the developer pay €120,000 in levies (€5000 per dwelling), plus an additional €2,000 as security.
In 2018 Galrane Developments was given the green light in respect of a separate application for the same site.
Granted in August 2018, the permission provided for two semi-detached houses on sites No. 61 and 62 at Creighan Manor.
Storage unit
Meanwhile, Ballyhale Properties has also sought to alter previously approved plans, this time in respect of a storage unit at Moynehall and Cornagleragh (or Oldtown), Cavan Town.
In 2021 Ballyhale Properties were granted conditional planning pmerission to build a new storage unit to rear of Moynehall Retail Park, together with connection to all existing services and ancillary site works.
The alteration seeks to change the site layout and boundary, as well as extending the floor area of the proposed development. Furthermore, the alteration seeks the installation of a dock leveller and associated alterations to elevations, with connection to all existing services and all ancillary works.
Moynehall Retail Park is anchored by Clarkes of Cavan Superstore, with all other units privately operated and under owner management.
Drumgola development
Separately, Tully Developments Ltd, of Hillside House, Drumcrave, has submitted plans to the council to build 15 houses at Drumgola Wood, Drumlark and Latt, Co Cavan.
They include one three-bed detached dwelling, six three-bed semi-detached, and eight two bed terraced dwellings, with access via existing service road, connection to the public foul and storm water sewers, public watermains and all ancillary site works.
Decisions on all applications are due mid August.
