Proposed Salthill apartment development subject of appeal

Galway Bay fm newsroom – The development of an apartment block in Salthill has encountered a setback. Galway City Council granted planning permission to Foxfield Inns in June for the apartments at San Antonio Terrace. That decision is now being appealed by a third party to An Bord Pleanála. The development at San Antonio Terrace would involve the demolition of an old building and the construction of a new apartment block. It would have 4 ground floor apartments and 4 duplex apartments overhead. In an appeal to An Bord Pleanala, a third party claims that the rights and amenities of local residents will be seriously curtailed if the development goes ahead as currently outlined. More at 1
