Core Planning Reasoning
The proposed development for retention is consistent with the 'RS' - Residential zoning objective for the site and its planning history. The works are considered to be of a scale and nature that do not negatively impact the residential or visual amenities of the area or the character of the Architectural Conservation Area.
Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The amendments and alterations to the main dwelling are relatively minor and do not give rise to new or additional impacts on the amenities of neighbouring properties beyond what was previously deemed acceptable under F22A/0245.
- The as-constructed garden room and the new garden shed are of an appropriate height and scale for a residential area and do not result in excessive overbearing or overshadowing impacts on adjacent properties.
- The development for retention is generally compatible with the architectural style of 'The Rise' and complies with the objectives for Architectural Heritage set out in the Fingal Development Plan.
