Planning application 2660743

Galway County Council has issued a conditional decision on a planning application submitted by the Children’s Language Development Project CLG for a new facility on Garraí Glas, Tuam Road in Athenry, Co Galway. The application, reference 2660743, was received on 14 May 2026 and the council released its decision on 2 July 2026, with a conditional status pending further compliance.

The project is aimed at creating a dedicated space for children’s language development. According to the council file, the proposal includes signage, internal alterations, a stand‑alone store, a canopy over a play area, and the construction of a free‑standing sensory room, together with all ancillary site and development works required to support the new centre.

The decision code is listed as CONDITIONAL, indicating that while the application has been approved in principle, certain conditions must be met before full implementation can proceed. The council’s authority over the matter remains unchanged, and the project sits within the broader Tuam area of Co Galway, with its site address recorded as Garraí Glas, Tuam Road, Athenry (H65 PW95).
