A final decision on plans for a three-storey nursing home in South Kilkenny now lies in the hands of An Bord Pleanála.
The plans were initially refused planning permission by Kilkenny County Council but the applicant has since lodged an appeal against that decision to the national planning body.
The site location for the proposed nursing home is Garrandarragh, Mullinavat, County Kilkenny.
Also sought is permission for a single storey ancillary services building, vehicular access, parking, sewage treatment plant, a private borehole well supply and all associated site development works.
An Bord Pleanála are expected to make a final ruling on or before March 21, 2023.
