How come? It's not right by the lake or anything from the looks of the mapA bunch of us objected to a group that wanted to turn these fields into an industrial solar farm
Many reasons. The sheer scale of it was a big one.How come? It's not right by the lake or anything from the looks of the map
Was I telling ye about the planning thing across the road from us? There was a half-burned down house there for a few years, someone bought it and got planning to knock it and build a different house set back from the roadMeath couple whose house was due to be demolished secure temporary reprieve
Property was built without planning permission more than 15 years agowww.irishtimes.com
Was your objection successful? "It's too big" seems a bit hand-wavey for a local authority to take seriouslyMany reasons. The sheer scale of it was a big one.
yes it wasWas your objection successful? "It's too big" seems a bit hand-wavey for a local authority to take seriously
Too big for our back yard.Was your objection successful? "It's too big" seems a bit hand-wavey for a local authority to take seriously
I said "this should be moved to a neighbourhood in Dublin" in my objectionToo big for our back yard.
This country should be absolutely plastered in solar panels and wind farms. We were in wales a couple of weeks ago and the scale of the offshore wind infrastructure around Llandudno is just incredible.

That was fair enough, nobody objected.
Then he half-knocked the house, and extended it into a bigger house instead, and in the process blocked up a stream that flows under the house which backed up field drains in every direction - there was even water flowing across the road, and a big flood outside the house itself. And then it turned out the extended house was split up into flats. So we all objected, and he applied for retention, and failed to follow up on questions the council had, so now the place has no planning permission
It was all made possible by the fact that he paid for everything in cash - normally this kind of planning thing is effectively enforced by the banks, who won't you let you draw down the mortgage without signoff from the council. And the reason he's paying for everything in cash? He's a criminal, as we found out when the place was raided by the guards and CAB. Lot of drama for a crossroads 6km from the nearest village
Was just over in Holy Island in Angelsey at the weekend and they're all yapping away in Welsh to each other. The language is everywhere.This country should be absolutely plastered in solar panels and wind farms.
