Common questions about Newtowncunningham planning

Do I need planning permission in Newtowncunningham?

The rules are national, so the same exemptions apply in Newtowncunningham as everywhere else. Many small projects, such as some single-storey rear extensions, are exempt under S.I. 600/2001. Donegal County Council decides applications here, and a site in a protected area or a protected structure has fewer exemptions.

Who decides planning applications in Newtowncunningham?

Donegal County Council is the planning authority for Newtowncunningham. It must decide within eight weeks of a valid application, unless it asks for further information.
