Kilkenny County Council
Planning Process
Overview of Planning applications
The main features of the Irish planning system are:
- making development plans,
- the need for planning permission,
- exempted development (i.e. minor works where planning permission is not required)
- appeals against planning decisions, and
- planning enforcement.
Information on those are available at the links above, or by choosing an option from the menu on the left hand side.

On-line Planning Application update 2022:
Kilkenny County Council has been working in collaboration with the Local Government Management Agency (LGMA) on the preparation of an e-planning portal.
It is envisioned that e-planning will go live in Kilkenny County Council before the end of Quarter 3 2022. From that time it will be possible for you to register as a user and submit planning applications online to Kilkenny County Council.
To this end the LGMA has prepared a short youtube video link below should you wish to familiarise yourself with the site prior to registration.
