Derry City and Strabane District Council’s Planning Committee today approved a number of applications in relation to the Ebrington site.
The first one related to an application for Listed Building Consent for the alteration and extension of the former military building at Building 40, Ebrington, to provide a bar/restaurant, landscaping and associated works.
Members of the committee attending their monthly Planning Committee meeting heard how the proposed extension to the rear of Building 40 will include a three storey extension stepping down to a two storey extension to the rear that will nestle into the step created by the retaining wall at the boundary of Building 40 and 44 – 46.
The \ Sylvan Wye\ at Glasbury. PLANNERS will have to consider the level of phosphates a development might produce, in planning applications near both the rivers Wye and Usk. Last week the Welsh Government environment body, Natural Resources Wales published new stricter targets for phosphate levels in rivers that are Special Areas of Conservation. Of the nine in Wales, two flow in Powys, the rivers Wye and Usk. Following the review, NRW said phosphorus breaches are widespread within rivers in Wales conservation areas, with more than 60 per cent of water bodies failing against the challenging targets set. The river with the highest level of phosphate failures was the Usk with 88 per cent of its water bodies failing to hit the target.
