New Shed - Planning?

arctictree

Thinking of building a new shed for lambing. About 250sqm.

Anyone know if I'd need planning for this? I've had a search and it all seems very confusing. Shed would not be anywhere near existing dwellings. Thanks.

This link may be useful but you would need to double check the regulations before getting the digger in

Thanks - yes, I found that but it is a bit confusing. Page 1 and 2 talk about exempted structures and then Page 3 talks about site notices and planning fees. But I am looking at building an exempted structure.

I thought it had to be under 200m2 to qualify for exemption?

How much is it to go for planning on a shed now?

Tyson Lannister

around here its e80 for 200m2, 1 euro per metre then for anything over that but the min is e80.

eg. 200m2 = 80
240m2 = 80
285m2 = 85
300m2 = 100
300 is the max fee for building, unless you are going for retention/demolition.

is there also a rule about the height limit or distance from other buildings to be considered?

That size will require planiing permission.

Type 1 exempt "A roofed structure housing cattle, sheep, donkeys, horses, deer or rabbits,provided that its floor area does not exceed 200 square metres and that the total floor area of all Type 1 structures within the farmyard complex (or 100metres of it) does not exceed 300 square metres"

Would say that 90% of slatted shed in Ireland are illegal as not have pl permission when require it. They might be under 200 sq metres but doubt that second part of the condition I put in bold is met on most farms ..

Haha they tried to charge us crazy money for a good size shed a few years ago. An bord plananna reduced it because coco had no agri development fees. Gotta love Dublin cocos

So if it is planning exempt, do you still pay the €80, and who do you pay?

The €80 is the minimum charge for that type of planning application. If you meet the requirements for a shed exempt from planning and want to apply for a grant you will need a declaration of exemption from your planning authority staying the proposed shed is exempt, known as a section 5 declaration. The application fee for this is €40 I think and involves making an official application to the planning department. You should check with your local planners for their requirements to be honest as I came across a couple of surprise conditions recently.

Section 5 is e80 here

Sorry, €80 here too, I just checked the cheque book stub.
