The procedure for making a retention planning application is exactly the same as for a normal planning application. Because of this, the cost of preparing a retention application is equivalent to that of an ordinary planning application.
Outlay Costs for a Retention Planning Application
The outlay costs associated with a retention application are as follows.
Planning Authority Fee
The statutory fee to the Planning Authority for a domestic extension or alteration is €102, or €2.50 per sq. metre of floor space, whichever is greater. For all other types of development, the retention fee is generally three times the normal application fee.
Ordnance Survey Maps
There is a fee payable to Tailte Éireann (formerly Ordnance Survey Ireland) for the required maps, of approximately €60.
Newspaper Notice
There is a fee to advertise the application in an approved newspaper, which can be up to €150 depending on location.
