Planning Circular 3/89
The Department's policies on the renovation of buildings in the countryside
the conversion of existing redundant buildings where such conversion complies with planning circular 3/89 - Renovation of Buildings in the Countryside. Alternatively the Department may accept the expansion of existing facilities which have shown a positive previous contribution to tourism in the area. However, no approval will be granted to any development which would result in an adverse impact on the countryside whether this be from visual intrusion, the impact of traffic or car parking or inadequate arrangements for the servicing of the development.
