Retention of revised site boundaries to existing dwelling

John Hennessy has received conditional approval from Sligo County Council for retention of revised site boundaries at his existing dwelling in Ballinphull, near Cliffoney. The decision was made on 27 April 2026.

The application sought permission to retain modifications to the site boundaries of the property located at Ballinphull, Cliffoney, Co. Sligo, F91 FF61. The conditional nature of the approval means that certain requirements or stipulations must be met by the applicant before the permission becomes fully effective.

Planning applications of this type typically relate to boundary adjustments that may have been implemented on a site without prior consent, or to formalise changes to the curtilage of an existing residential property. Such cases require the local authority to assess whether the modifications are acceptable in planning terms before granting retention permission.

The decision represents progress on the matter for the applicant, though the specific conditions attached to the approval will need to be reviewed carefully to ensure full compliance.

For further details on this planning decision, the application can be viewed on Sligo County Council's planning portal.
