Questions for Officer

2.          Councillor Phelim Mac Cafferty was concerned regarding the impact on neighbours. The Councillor was informed that the proposed roof scape allows light into a bedroom window and the rooflights would not be seen from the street. It was noted that the proposal affords a better proportioned roof with screening to the side elevation and no objection has been raised by the Heritage team.
