Planning sought to increase permitted nursing home outside Dundalk to 128 beds
Planning permission is being sought from Louth County Council to increase the number of bedrooms in a nursing home outside Dundalk, for which planning permission was granted in 2019, from 106 bedrooms to 128 bedrooms.
Abortree Investments Ltd are seeking planning permission for modifications to the previously permitted 106 bed two storey nursing home at Knockshee on the Old Golf Links Road, Blackrock, Dundalk, to allow for the provision of 22 additional bedrooms in the nursing home.
They had been granted planning permission in July 2019 to construct an elderly care centre consisting of two storey, 106 bed nursing home and a two storey apartment structure containing 12 two-bed assisted living units. The applicant says that no alterations are proposed to the permitted assisted living apartment building.
A decision is due on the application by 10 May, with submissions due by 19 April.
