Planning application received: for a residential development scheme containing 21 no. residential units consisting of 14 no. 3 bed

Latt Properties Ltd lodged a planning application with Cavan County Council for a residential development at Swellan Upper in the town of Cavan, County Cavan. The proposal would see the erection of 21 new dwellings, of which 14 are planned as three‑bedroom units; the remaining seven units’ layouts have not yet been detailed.

The council received the application on 19 June 2026 and it is currently listed as incomplete in the planning register (Reference 2660344). No decision has yet been made regarding approval, transfer or any conditions that might be attached to the scheme. The applicant’s site address remains Swellan Upper, Cavan.

The proposal comes amid a series of other planning submissions in the county, including applications for agricultural sheds and single‑storey extensions elsewhere in Cavan. While these projects differ in scope, they all fall under the same local authority’s review process.

Separately, Cavan County Council has issued a public warning about algal blooms that can appear on lakes across the county during this time of year. The council advises dog owners and others to avoid contact with such blooms because they may cause skin irritation or be toxic if ingested. This advisory is unrelated to the residential scheme but reflects ongoing environmental monitoring in the area.
