Sinéad Ní Mhaoláin has submitted a planning application to Galway County Council for the construction of a dwelling house, a drainage system, a garage and all associated works at An Lochán Beag in Indreabhain, Co Galway. The proposal was received by the council on 14 May 2026 and carries the reference number 26106. According to the council’s planning portal, the application is classified under the decision code “CONDITIONAL”. A decision on the matter was issued on 25 June 2026, with a deadline for final determination set for 8 July 2026.

The site at An Lochán Beag lies within the rural district of Indreabhain and falls under the jurisdiction of Galway County Council’s planning authority. The application file, which includes detailed drawings, observations and decision documents, is available on the council’s ePlan website for public inspection. Applicants are required to comply with local development plans and environmental regulations when proceeding with construction.

The council has recently considered several other applications in the surrounding area, including a residential development at Toberbrackan in Clarinbridge (application 2660721), a project at An Carn Mór Thiar in Oranmore (application 2660722) and a cottage at Barnaderg in Tuam (application 2660740). These decisions illustrate the council’s ongoing review of rural development proposals across County Galway.

While the decision for Sinéad Ní Mhaoláin’s application is now final, the conditional nature of the approval suggests that certain conditions must be met before construction can commence. The applicant will need to address any stipulated requirements and may have to submit additional documentation or amendments in line with council guidance.

For further information on this planning application, including access to the full file and related documents, readers are encouraged to visit the Galway County Council planning portal and consult the localnews.ie coverage of the decision.
