New criteria on building a home in rural Laois could knock out up to 90% of applications, a Laois councillor has said.
Updated planning guidelines for houses in rural Laois are to be introduced in 2021.
The Laois County Development Plan 2021-2027 is now being finalised, with the draft plan shown to councillors last week.
Some are not happy with the new rules on rural housing.
Cllr Padraig Fleming says a rule on longer sightlines at entrances will mean “getting rid of 80 or 90% of rural housing”.
New houses must have a clear sightline of approaching traffic, ranging from 60 metres to 120 metres on each side of their house entrance.
