As part of the county and town development plan, housing demands will obviously be a significant issue. Your own figures and projections no doubt will highlight a need for additional housing and zoning of suitable lands in Baltinglass.
In our view our land is suitable for zoning to residential for several reasons:
• 60 acres (24 hectares) of suitable land for development
• Adjacent to existing town boundary lines – natural progression as town population and economy expands
• Immediate area has existing residential developments (19 bungalows directly opposite)
• Several lands in immediate area granted planning permission for dense residential development
• Several existing vehicular access onto the L4015 local primary road
• Lands are within 1km of the town centre
• Existing footpath adjoin lands leading to town circle – ideal for pedestrian and cycle access
• Not near any of the flood zone sites or areas of concern
Please find attached a map from the existing Baltinglass Town development plan with our site marked.
