“Description of Proposal First floor extension to existing single storey dwelling to provide 2 additional bedrooms Planning Assessment of Policy and Other Material Considerations Policy Consideration Planning History LA09/2025/0914/LDE - Retention of approved extension to existing dwelling to be used as a separate dwelling from main house - 1 Drumcoo Green, Dungannon – CLUDE GRANTED LA09/2017/1571/F - Ground floor gable bed/sit with bathroom extension to dwelling - 1 Drumcoo…”

“The site is located at 1 Drumcoo Green, Dungannon. The red line of the site includes a two storey end of terrace property located within a medium/high denisity residential area, with a single storey extension to side of it. There is a low level concrete wall providing the boundary treatment for the dwelling, with existing hedging along the northern boundary.”

“The existing extension approved under LA09/2017/1571/F extends from the gable wall and this proposal is to build up from that to create first floor bedroom accommodation. The materials proposed include dash finish to the external walls and uPVC windows to match existing. The extension proposed is considered suitable in terms of its size and scale as it will appear subordinate to the existing dwelling.”

“NI Water have been consulted and had originally recommended refusal, noting that there was no available capacity in the downstream Wastewater infrastructure, and no viable developer led solution available to achieve a foul connection. However, with reference to the recent CLUD approval they have reconsidered the application and in their most recent response have since recommended approval.”

“Members considered previously circulated report on planning application LA09/2024/0925/F which had a recommendation for approval.”

“Resolved That planning application LA09/2024/0925/F be approved subject to conditions as per the officer’s report.”
