Councils will get targets for specific types of homes this year. Should they use zoning to meet them?
By Laoise Neylon Verified| Dublin Inquirer Verified Close to four years ago, Dublin city councillors voted to rezone a sprawl of lands at Jamestown Business Park in Finglas so that new homes could be built on the site. In March 2023, Dublin City Council put out a masterplan for the lands, envisioning around 3,500 homes, together with businesses, a primary school, green space and cultural and community space.
By Laoise Neylon Verified| Dublin Inquirer Verified The Minister for Housing, Fianna Fáil TD James Browne, and the Taoiseach, Fianna Fáil TD Micheál Martin, both said recently that councils need to rezone more land so developers can build more homes. “Councils will be instructed by the minister to rezone, to do their county development plans pronto, get more land available for housing,” said Martin, in an Irish Times podcast earlier this month. “That is an important enabler for many, many builders out there,” he said.
