House extension and redevelopment with new wastewater treatment system
Three separate housing projects have progressed through the planning process in the Castlebar area of County Mayo, each incorporating wastewater management infrastructure.
Shane Kavanagh has received approval for a new house and garage at Lisgowel in Breaffy, near Castlebar. The development includes a treatment system for wastewater alongside necessary services and site works required to make the property operational.
In the Ballyvary area, Michelle Simon Dey has submitted plans to extend and redevelop a house at Lissaniska, also near Castlebar. Her proposal involves installing a treatment unit and percolation area to manage wastewater from the property. The application has recently been lodged with Mayo County Council and awaits assessment.
A third project sees Ciaran McCann seeking to extend his house at Gortjordan in Shrule and install a new effluent treatment system. However, this application remains incomplete, with Mayo County Council currently awaiting additional information from the applicant before the proposal can proceed to full evaluation.
All three developments reflect growing attention to proper wastewater treatment in rural areas around Castlebar, moving beyond traditional septic tank solutions.
