Cork County Council's decision to deny planning permission for small housing estate overturned

A decision of Cork County Council to refuse planning permission for a small housing development because of its proximity to the proposed route of the M28 Cork-Ringaskiddy motorway was not “tenable,” according to a senior planning inspector with An Bord Pleanála.
The board overturned the council’s decision in the case by upholding an appeal made by developer, Fastnet Recycling, to be allowed to develop 15 townhouses at Ring Port Business Park near the centre of Ringaskiddy.
