2660687at the top, give your name and the address the authority should reply to, and confine it to planning matters — zoning objective, height, overlooking, traffic, drainage, heritage. What you say here is what you can later appeal on. - Pay the €20 fee.Every submission needs it; without it the observation is invalid and is returned. Waterford City and County Council takes it online with the submission or at the counter.
- Submit before 12 Oct 2026.Online through the register above, or in writing to the Planning Department, Waterford City and County Council. The test is the date the authority receives it, not the date you post it.
- Keep the acknowledgement.The council's receipt is your proof of a valid observation — see below.
Statutory basis. Section 34(1) of the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended) requires a planning authority to consider any submission or observation made to it in accordance with the Regulations. Article 29 of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001 (as amended) sets the window: a submission or observation must be received by the authority within five weeks beginning on the date of receipt of the application, and must be accompanied by the prescribed fee of €20. A submission received after the window, or without the fee, is invalid and the authority must return it.
What the site is zoned
| Code | Objective | Plan | In force |
|---|---|---|---|
| G1 Open space with recreation | OS: Preserve and provide for open space and recreational amenities. | wccc development plan 2022 2028 | 19 Jul 2022 → 18 Jul 2028 |
| R2 Existing residential | RS: Provide for residential development and protect and improve residential amenity. | wccc development plan 2022 2028 | 19 Jul 2022 → 18 Jul 2028 |
An application that accords with the zoning objective is hard to resist on principle; one that does not may be a material contravention, which the council can only grant by the s.34(6) procedure with its own notice and window.
