ZONING

The entire is within the village of Cutbush and we estimate that circa 6 acres are zoned for ‘Settlement Expansion’ with the balance ‘agricultural’ as contained in the Kildare County Development Plan 2017 – 2023. The Agri lands have potential long-term value. A previous planning application for 43 dwellings was made on the lands in 2008 and refused (Planning ref:07141). This was upheld by An Bord Pleanala in 2008 (ref:228487).
