The deadline for submissions is the 24th May.

The Draft Kildare County Development Plan 2023-2029 has been published.
 
Kildare County Council are now inviting and encouraging submissions from citizens, communities and businesses alike during this important consultation phase, to have their say on the future development of the County.
 
The County Development Plan outlines the future development of County Kildare over its six-year lifespan. 
 
The Draft Plan seeks to address the physical, economic, social, and environmental needs of the communities and residents of County Kildare.
 
The council has said it will be implemented by supporting and encouraging sustainable development at suitable locations in tandem with new and improved amenity areas and social infrastructure such as schools and childcare facilities while protecting the environment, enhancing valued amenities and heritage assets.
 
Members of the public can view the draft Kildare County Development Plan here.
 
People will be guided through each area of the Draft Plan; from delivering healthy and creative communities, to greater access to recreational facilities and amenity areas, as well as sustainable housing delivery, improved access to public transport and provision of sustainable travel infrastructure, all in support of the transition to a low carbon climate resilient environment.
