Core Refusal Reason
The development is premature as the site is zoned 'Strategic Reserve' and the application failed to demonstrate adequate servicing for water and drainage.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The proposal is premature as the site is zoned 'Strategic Reserve', which is intended for long-term expansion and should not be brought forward for development until April 2027.

- The applicant failed to provide sufficient technical information to satisfy the Planning Authority that the site can be adequately serviced regarding storm water management, foul services, and water supply.
