A PLANNING application has been submitted to Cork County Council for a major new housing development in Schull.
The application from Carmina Properties Limited seeks permission to construct 57 residential units at a site just off the Colla Road south of the village.
The development would include three, four, and five-bedroom houses as well as one and two-bedroom apartments.
The application also seeks permission for vehicle and pedestrian access on to Colla Road via Chestnut Grove and a pedestrian connection to the Copper Point residential estate. The proposal also includes footpaths, lighting, parking, drainage, landscaping, amenity areas, bin and bike storage, an ESB substation and under-grounding of overhead power lines.
A decision is due on June 27th.
