Core Refusal Reason

Decision Maker's Conclusion
- The positioning of the waste compactor creates significant safety hazards for pedestrians in the vicinity.
- The development is considered contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the Ballyhit area.
- Retention permission cannot be legally granted as the subject infrastructure was found to be absent from the site during inspection.
