To construct dwellinghouse, garage, treatment plant and percolation area and associated

Oliver Delaney has applied to Galway County Council for permission to build a dwellinghouse, a garage, a treatment plant and a percolation area at Cnoc Tua Mór in Lackagh, Co Galway. The application, reference 2660704, was lodged on 7 May 2026 and the council set a decision date of 1 July 2026. On 25 June 2026 the council issued a conditional decision allowing the proposed works to proceed subject to the conditions outlined in the planning file.

The site at Cnoc Tua Mór is situated within the rural landscape of Lackagh, an area that has seen several recent planning applications across County Galway. Nearby proposals include developments on Toberbrackan in Clarinbridge and An Carn Mór Thiar in Oranmore, as well as a cottage project at Barnaderg in Tuam. These applications illustrate the council’s ongoing engagement with residential and infrastructure projects throughout the county.

Delaney’s proposal includes a dwellinghouse that will provide new housing accommodation, accompanied by a garage for vehicle storage. The treatment plant is intended to manage on‑site wastewater, while the percolation area will facilitate water infiltration in line with environmental standards. Associated services such as drainage and access roads are also part of the plan.

The conditional nature of the decision means that Delaney must comply with specific requirements set by the council before construction can commence. These conditions typically cover matters such as site layout, environmental protection measures, and compliance with local planning policies. Once satisfied, the applicant may proceed to the next stages of development.
