I had to jump through a lot of hoops lately to get planning on our own land , shower of pricks

So the Greens have decided that part of the solution to the housing crisis is not to allow people build in rural Ireland and drive all house building into towns and cities.

thou getting numbers for a GAA team is hardly a reason for one off houses FFS

Dan Jaman

Want a team? Build your houses closer together, then.

Which seems to be what he needs.

It costs the state a fortune to provide for one off housing and they only get back about €2 in a week in property tax from each of the houses.

I built my house in the country. I have installed my own water supply, my own sewerage system - the state provided nothing for me. Explain to me how I am costing the state a fortune

The way this site now lets you see who's lurking on de forum 😜

Provision and servicing of broadband, electricity and roads to single houses. School buses needed to bus children to schools etc etc.

Who wants to live in Leitrim fulltime. Pre Celtic Tiger crash, Leitrim landowners were making a fortune seliing a few rushy fields with a ruin. Marinas and holiday house developments/ estates - come the crash and these were the sites/ ghost estates that nobody wanted to live in.

It's coastal areas in the likes of Wexford, Waterford, Kerry, Clare, Galway where the demand is.

As for the farmers, unfortunately some gave a bad name by farming sites. Applications for children given and sold on. Authors of their own problems in this area.

Did you build the road to the house yourself. Did you pay ESB networks the real cost to provide leccy. Will you pay the Nation Broadband the real cost of bring fibre to you. Broadband alone is costing funny money. J🙄ust sayin'

The council wont build a road for you!

You pay for the ESB to connect to your house. Was about £1500 20 years ago.

You pay a private firm for broadband.

No new road needed for my house, I drive my kids to school, I paid for my ESB connection ( all necessary wires were already in area ). Broadband already in my area too.

I accept that some areas are extremely remote and the above could be a problem but most new builds are within reach of other houses.

The establishment under the german green party are doing everything to make living in rural Ireland a total nuisance. every rural road in the countryside hasn't had the grass verges cut this year, makes driving extremely dangerous at this time of the year. Loads of accidents the last month. No money to cut the grass Yet every town in rural Ireland are getting brand new footpaths put in where they are not even needed.

funny i was cycling last sunday thinking it was so nice to see all the flowers and orchids in the verges (ok cut round junctions but leave the rest alone)

road to the house is in pieces and has not been fixed for years, I will be paying the ESB a connection fee for a connection that is beside the house. Neither school buses or bin lorries travel up the road because of the state it is in As you could imagine, broadband has not made its way up the road either

The Greens have changed - they now view rural Ireland as a place to plant industrial wind farms to power their woke urban lifestyles. And also of course a place to take a week or two staycation.

KaneToad

You can live anywhere you like in Ireland. The restrictions are building a new property that is contrary to housing development policy.

The argument about freedom of movement is nonsense.

show is sh1te but I'm getting to like new site

It's absolutely beautiful to see the wildflowers everywhere... of course except junctions.
