Population and Housing
Closed24 Feb, 2021, 9:00am - 7 Apr, 2021, 4:00pm
The Core Strategy of the Draft Mayo County Development Plan 2021-2027 provides for a population allocation of 2,347 persons for Castlebar over the plan period, which equates to approximately 917 new houses. Mayo County Council are required to identify and reserve an appropriate amount of land in the correct locations to meet housing and population targets.
The current town and environs plan promotes a housing supply to meet the varied needs of the community and to provide an acceptable standard of living. Future housing supply in the town must be provided in a sustainable manner, aligning with the provisions of the Core Strategy of the County Development Plan, and having regard to established and sustainable settlement patterns and the natural environment.
