NI Water said there was a public foul sewer within 20 metres of the proposed boundary which can “adequately service these proposals”, and plans should be approved “with condition”.

“NI Water public sewers traverse the proposed development site,” the response added. “No construction is to be made or trees placed and a diversion may be necessary."
