Planning query housing need

    I am looking for some advice on this in louth county.

    myself and my husband want to purchase a site less than 1km from his mother subject to planning. I purchased a two bed apartment 650 square metres in louth by myself in 2007 and rented it and only moved in when got married 1 yr ago. My husband lived with his mum prior to that for 34 years and has strong ties with community such as gaa so local needs should not be an issue.

    Will the fact that I own a property hamper our chances in getting planning ?? I am expecting a baby and the property is not big enough I don't plan to sell as in negative equity, mortgage is not an issue as have been approved in principle.

    Do 'you' need to apply for planning?

    Would he be able to apply for planning on his own saying he currently lives at his mother address? Or would I have to be on the planning too?

    There is no legislation that says you must apply jointly for planning. Where he suggests he resides in not for me or this forum to say. He signs a declaration as part of the planning submission which covers that item. Speak to your planning consultant.
