Social Housing proposal for 64 No. residential units including provision for Traveller accommodation
• Local concern regarding provision of Traveller’s accommodation and access arrangements.
• Potential for planning prematurity issues to arise due to current objections to the greenfield lands in the draft area plan.
We were commissioned to prepare an outline planning application for a social housing development scheme on a greenfield site in Bessbrook. This included providing design and planning advice to the client and architect, co-ordinating supporting environmental information and preparing and managing the planning application.
We also prepared briefing material and organised a public information evening to inform the local community about the proposal, to gauge public opinion and obtain feedback. This information was then compiled and presented the Clanmil Board for consideration.
