South Dublin County Council are commencing the review of the current South Dublin County Development Plan 2016-2022 and are preparing a new County Development Plan (the Plan) that will set out the framework to guide future development up to 2028.

Join the conversation and help shape the future development of Your County, Your Neighbourhood.
What is a County Development Plan?
The County Development Plan is a document that guides the future growth and development of the County.
How to Join the Conversation?
This is YOUR opportunity to contribute towards the first steps in shaping and directing the future growth and vision for YOUR County, YOUR Neighbourhood.
Join the conversation and let us know your views for the next South Dublin County Development Plan 2022-2028.
This is only the first stage of the plan making process. The conversation at this stage is strategic in nature, looking at the big picture issues when it comes to delivering a balanced land use plan – the County Development Plan - for South Dublin County and your neighbourhood. Eight key strategic issues have been identified, set out in the following pages as setting a framework for the future development of your County/Neighbourhood. We are looking for your views on such issues.
At this first stage of the Development Plan process submissions in relation to land use zoning cannot be considered. This will happen at the later Draft Plan stage, see the process timeline in this booklet.
