(A) CONSTRUCTION OF DWELLING HOUSE WITH CONNECTION TO PRIMARY WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT

A planning application for a new dwelling house and garage at Figary, near Fahan in Lifford, County Donegal, has been refused by the local authority.

Sean McDonagh had sought permission to construct a residential property incorporating a connection to a primary wastewater treatment plant, alongside a link to the existing public sewer network. The proposal also included plans for a domestic garage and associated site works at the location.

Donegal County Council's planning department issued a refusal decision on 30 April 2026. The council did not provide specific reasons for the rejection in the available information.
