Planning being sought for three storey apartment block on Spoutwell Lane

Planning permission is being sought for a 20 unit apartment building in the centre of Mullingar.

The planning application submitted by Spoutwell Developments includes details for the construction of a three storey 20 unit apartment block on a site on Spoutwell Lane. If given the green light, the development will consist of 16 two bedroom apartments, three one beds and one three bedroom unit.

The application also includes details for the demolition of the existing commercial buildings on the centrally located site. The decision due date for the application is March 2.

Meanwhile, the people behind plans to build a 15 unit apartment development on the site of the former Lane Nightclub and its neighbouring building should find out tomorrow, Wednesday January 12, whether their application has been given the go-ahead.

The planning application submitted by Meeting House Partners includes details for the demolition of “buildings and structures” to the rear of 39 and 41 Oliver Plunkett Street, the reconfiguration of the retained structures and the construction of a new structure between two and four storeys high.

The developers propose that the retained buildings will house two duplex apartments over ground floor retail space, while the new structure will comprise 13 apartments (five one-bed and eight two-bed) over more ground floor retail space.
