Déan Iarratas ar Chead Pleanála

We will send your planning decision letter by registered post, usually 8 weeks from the date the application is received.  If we ask for additional information on your application, you have up to 6 months from the date of the additional information request to send the response.

You, or any objectors have the right to appeal the decision to An Bord Pleanála within 4 weeks.  If we grant permission and no appeal is made against the Council’s decision during the 4 weeks, we will then issue the final grant of planning permission.  It should be noted that to allow for possible delays in An Bord Pleanála notifying the Council that an appeal has been lodged, it is Council policy to issue final grants of permission on a weekly basis 5 to 6 weeks after notification of decision to grant permission was made. As the final grant is an important document, therefore, you are advised to store it safely.

Forbairt Dhíolmhaithe

Is ionann Forbairt Dhíolmhaithe agus forbairt nach dteastaíonn cead pleanála uait lena haghaidh.

De ghnáth, áirítear léi forbairtí beaga cosúil leo seo:

• Síneadh le foirgneamh, scioból, garáiste, ballaí teorann, etc., a thógáil laistigh de chúirtealáiste tí chónaithe faoi réir coinníollacha agus teorainneacha (féach thíos)
• I gcás Déanmhas Cosanta agus/nó déanmhas i limistéar Caomhantas Ailtireachta féadfar forbairt dhíolmhaithe a dhéanamh d’oibreacha nach ndéanann difear do shainghnéithe déanmhas áirithe nó do chodanna sonracha de dhéanmhais áirithe nó do shainghnéithe sonracha laistigh d’fhearann comhghafach déanmhas áirithe. Mar sin féin ba cheart duit iarratas a chur chuig an Údarás Áitiúil chun Dearbhú i scríbhinn a fháil maidir leis na cineálacha oibreacha a mheasann sé a dhéanfadh nó nach ndéanfadh difear do shainghnéithe an déanmhais nó d’aon ghné den déanmhas.
• Roinnt athruithe ar úsáid, cé is moite de dhéanmhas atá faoi chosaint. 

Tá na sonraí iomlána maidir le forálacha d’fhorbairt dhíolmhaithe lena n-áirítear coinníollacha agus teorainneacha le fáil i Sceideal 2, Cuid 1 de na Rialacháin um Pleanáil agus Forbairt 2001, I.R. 600 de 2001 atá ar fáil ar www.irishstatutebook.ie.

Exempt development is development for which Planning Permission is not required.

It generally relates to developments of a minor nature such as:-

• Works of improvement, maintenance or other alterations that affect only the interior of a structure
• Works that do not materially affect the external appearance of a structure
• Building of an extension, shed, garage, boundary walls, etc. within the curtilage of a house subject to conditions and limitations
• Certain changes of use of commercial premises

In the case of a Protected Structure and/or structures in an Architectural Conservation area: 

• It is important to note that most exemptions do not apply to structures that are included on the Council's Register of Protected Structures or that are situated in an architectural conservation area.
• However, works may be exempted development if they do not affect: a) the character of particular structures, b) or specific parts of particular structures c) or specific features within the attendant grounds of particular structures .
• However you should apply to the Local Authority for a written Declaration as to the type of works which it considers would or would not materially affect the character of the structure or of any element of the structure.

Mura bhfuil tú cinnte an bhfuil díolúine ag d’fhorbairt. Is féidir leat iarratas a dhéanamh ar dhoiciméad uainne, ar a dtugtar Deimhniú maidir le Díolúine, ina ndeimhnítear an gcaithfidh tú cur isteach ar chead pleanála. Is féidir é sin a dhéanamh ach an fhoirm thíos a líonadh isteach agus í a sheoladh chugainn in éineacht leis an liosta doiciméad agus an táille.

• Íoslódáil Foirm um Dheimhniú maidir le Díolúine ó Chead Pleanála (Leasú G)
• Cuir táille €80 léi
• Líníochtaí atá scálaithe go leordhóthanach agus léarscáil de shuíomh an láithreáin ina bhfuil an láithreán marcáilte
• Aon sonraí riachtanacha eile

What is a letter of consent and what does it cover?

A letter of consent is part of the pre-planning process. It gives the applicant permission to submit a planning application that includes Fingal County Council lands however it does not give the applicant ownership to the land.

What is the Letter of Consent Process?

1. Applicant must submit description of proposed development and map outlining site.
2. The Property Services team confirm ownership of the lands in question and any other relevant checks required.
3. The application is then circulated to the relevant service departments within the Council to review.
4. If no objections are received within the specified time frame, the application is put before Senior Management for final approval.
5. Once approval is received the client is issued with an official Letter of Consent which can then accompany the planning application
