Next Steps

A planning application will be lodged with Galway City Council in mid-April 2023 with construction of the new school planned to commence once the necessary consents have been received. Once the application has been lodged the plans will be available to view at the planning offices of Galway City Council.

Project Development: Next Steps

St Joseph’s Patrician College ‘The Bish’ intends to submit the planning application to Galway City Council in mid-April.

The application will include:

  • Application Forms and Public Notices

  • Planning Drawings

  • Ecological Impact Assessment Report

  • Natura Impact Statement

Notification of the intention to lodge the application will be placed in a relevant newspaper. Once submitted, all planning application documents and drawings will be available for viewing in the offices of Galway City Council. The information will also be available to view on website portals at https://www.galwaycity.ie/online-planning-system. This usually takes a few days for the information to be uploaded.

The project website will remain live.

Following lodgement of the application, members of the community can make submissions to the local authority during the assigned public consultation period. The project team will continue to be available to discuss any individual queries in relation to the application.
