Council permits temporary changing facilities at Lifford Celtic FC
Lifford Celtic obtains five-year permission for installation of changing rooms at the Lifford Common
Donegal County Council has granted temporary planning permission to Lifford Celtic Football Club for the installation of changing rooms at the Lifford Common.
A time period of five years has been granted to the club, which includes Shay Given as a former player, after it successfully submitted the application for the temporary installation of changing facilities, toilets, kitchen facilities and all associated site works at its club grounds.
A condition was set by Donegal County Council that the land would be “restored on foot of the removal,” after the granted five-year period.
Chairman of Lifford Celtic, Robert White, was the listed applicant for the application.
Lifford Celtic was formed in 1950, and plays matches at Green Brae Park in Lifford.
Donegal County Council granted the temporary permission, with four conditions, imposed to ensure orderly development and in the interest of the visual amenities of the area, the interests of safeguarding the River Finn SAC, and to prevent flooding, and in the interests of public health.
