The purpose of this submission is, namely, to seek the: Rezoning of the lands at Dublin Road from their existing ‘Community/Education’, to ‘Objective G - Enterprise and Employment’ or ‘Objective J - Industry’.
The lands are underutilised and provide a major opportunity to support the growth and expansion of existing and new employment generating uses on the Dublin Road within the boundary of the Greater Carlow area.
In our professional planning opinion, appropriate rezoning of the underutilised lands at Dublin Road will serve to realise the policies and objectives of the Carlow County Development Plan 2022-2028 and the Draft Carlow-Graiguecullen Joint Urban Local Area Plan 2024-2030.
