Permission To Construct A Dwelling House

Sinead Cooney has lodged a planning application with Mayo County Council to build a new dwelling house at Tonregee West in Westport. The proposal also includes a detached garage, a proprietary effluent treatment system and a soil polishing filter or percolation area, together with all associated site development works. The application was received on 17 October 2025 and the council has set a decision date of 21 May 2026. A conditional decision was issued on 18 May 2026, indicating that the council has reviewed the submission and will grant permission subject to any conditions that may be imposed. The application is listed under reference 2560728 on the council’s planning portal. The proposed development is intended to provide a single‑storey residence with modern waste management facilities that would treat domestic effluent on site and allow treated water to infiltrate safely. The garage is to provide secure parking and storage for the occupants. No further details on the conditions or the council’s reasoning have been released at this stage. Residents of Westport can view the full application file, including drawings and any conditions, on the Mayo County Council website. For the complete planning notice, see the council’s public record (reference 2560728).
