Roof amendment with first-floor accommodation, rear extension, and front elevation retention sought.
Incompleted application — declared invalid 21 May 2026; resubmission required.
Shane and Laura Maguire applied to amend the roof of their home at 26 Beechdale Drive, Clogherboy, Navan by increasing ridge height and roof pitch to create first-floor accommodation, along with internal alterations and a ground-floor rear extension. They also sought retention of alterations to the front elevation. The application was declared invalid on 21 May 2026 because the public notices did not correctly state the retention element—they should have read "retention permission and planning permission" rather than permission alone. The applicants must resubmit with corrected notices and a new application fee of €136.
