A planning application has been lodged with Meath County Council for a residential development on lands forming part of “The Hollies” at Athboy Road, Ballivor in Co Meath. The proposal concerns the construction of four two‑storey, two‑bedroom dwellings. Each house will have its own private amenity space at the rear and will be allocated two car parking spaces within the curtilage. Vehicular access to the site is planned from Hazelwood.

In addition to the housing units, the application includes the provision of new road services and footpaths that will connect the development with the existing permitted road network in “The Hollies.” The plan also covers all ancillary works required to enable the project, such as a revised open‑space layout, landscaping, boundary treatments and sustainable urban drainage system (SuDS) details.

The application was received by the council on 8 June 2026. A decision is expected by 2 August 2026. The proposal falls under Reg. Ref. 21387, which previously approved a residential development to the east of the site.

While another planning matter in Co Meath has attracted media attention – a couple whose illegally built home was demolished – that case remains unrelated to this application and is not part of the current submission.
