   92 5.1 worked EXAMPLE Drawing on the advice in the previous sections of the guide this chapter illustrates how the key points already discussed can be incorporated into a new house in the Co Monaghan countryside that is contemporary in its appearance and meets the needs of a family in the 21st century but also forms part of a continuum with the past drawing on and reinforcing the identified strong signature characteristics of traditional rural houses in the county: Traditional roof pitch 35o Simple linear form e.g. no dormers or bay windows Two storey house fronting onto a forecourt L shaped grouping of house and garage Flat roofed porch Unfussy detailing Natural slate roof Self finish off white render Timber windows, painted There is generally more wall than window Shape and position of windows is deliberately modern Narrow access lane, single track Traditional countryside hedges interplanted with native species deciduous trees on all boundaries MARY KERRIGAN ARCHITECTS

   97 The site that has been selected is located on the east side of and on the lower slope of a typical Co Monaghan drumlin. There are good views to the south west and north west but an unfortunate grouping of unsightly farm buildings to the east mars the view in this direction. In creating this site the client purchased additional land to form a traditional access laneway from the north. There are no problems with achieving the required sight lines where this lane meets the County Road. The length and width of the house have been kept to a minimum to allow siting of the house parallel to the contours in a way that minimises any need for extensive cut and fill and associated unsightly scarring.

    00 5.2 making a planning APPLICATION Once the design has been finalised a planning application must be submitted together with the appropriate fee to the planning authority for your area i.e. the County Council or Town Council- (Monaghan, Clones, Castleblayney and Carrickmacross). Consider arranging a pre-planning meeting with the Council where you will have an opportunity to discuss your proposal and raise any concerns or queries you may have. Pre-planning discussions are an effective means of keeping all parties informed and can prove to be an extremely helpful step in the determination process. For full details of plannng application procedures please contact Monaghan County Council or visit www.monaghancoco.ie. You must have a significant legal interest in a site to carry out the proposed development, or the written consent of the person who has that legal interest. If a prospective purchaser or tenant makes a planning application, the owner’s written consent must be enclosed with the application Planning application forms come with explanatory notes. You should read these carefully before completing the form. The planning authority can give you advice, or you could appoint an agent (e.g. planning consultant/engineer/ architect) to make the application on your behalf. Either the applicant or the agent may sign the application form. A sample form is included in this chapter. A fee is payable with the planning application. A flat rate fee is payable for an application to construct a new house. Details of fees can be obtained from the Department of the Environments website at http://www.environ.ie In general six copies of the following documents will need to be submitted along with your planning application and the appropriate fee- Location Map (not less than :2500) Site or layout plan (not less than :500) Other plans and elevations (scale :200) Copies of public notices You must give a public notice of your proposals concurrent to making an application. This must be done both: by a notice in a locally circulated newspaper (the planning authority will have a list of approved papers) and by erecting a site notice, which must be on a durable material, erected in a conspicuous position on the land or structure, so that it can be clearly visible and legible from outside. These must identify the name of the applicant, the location of the site, the type of permission sought, and the type and extent of proposed development. It should also contain a statement that the application is available for inspection and purchase and that submissions or objections should be submitted within FIVE weeks of lodgement of a valid application. A sample notice is included in this chapter. One copy of each notice must be provided to the authority along with your application. For the newspaper notice you must give the planning authority the full page showing the date of publication. The date of erection of the site notice must also be given and it must be in position, in a legible and visible condition, on the site for at least FIVE weeks. It is very important to note that the application will be declared invalid if the notice is not on site when it is inspected by the planning officers. Applications must be received within 2 weeks of publication of a newspaper and the erection of a site notice
