Extension of the Town Environs of Maynooth

Caibidil: 
Volume 1 - chapters » 8 - Urban Centres & Retail

Maynooth has been designated as a Key Town as part of the Regional Spatial Economic Strategy (RSES) for the Eastern Region along with Swords and Bray. This designation has lead to Maynooth being allocated additional housing targets. In order for the town to develop in a sustainable way, consideration should be given to the extension of the town boundaries to the South of the Town encorporating parts of Ballygoran and Moneycooley. These areas should then be considered for zoning as part of the Maynooth Local Area Plan.

 

Main opinion: 

Town Environs of Maynooth should be extended to the South

Main requests: 

Parts of Moneycooley and Ballygoran, close to the R406 are part of the Maynooth LAP

Main reasons: 

For sustainable and equitable development of the Key Growth Town of Maynooth

Adequate Social Servicing of Towns and Villages

housing

With the need for additional housing throughout the Country and particularly in Kildare, it is vital that suffiecient land is zoned for housing. It is also vital that critical services are available for the increasing population. In cases where there are a lack of the below services, the Council should liaise with Governemental departments to ensure that they are delivered in tandem with new housing. 

1. Adequate childcare places

2. Adequate primary and post primary places

3. Adequate ASD and additional need educational units in schools

4. Space on the GP list

5. For towns and villages with a population of over 10,000 people, a Primary Care Unit

6. Playgrounds

7. Community Centre for all towns and villages of over 10,000 people

Main opinion: 

That key services are provided in line with additional housing
