Development Strategy
There has been considerable housing development in Clashmore over the last Plan period, particularly in the Ballyheeney area, to the south of the village. The zoned area is shown on the attached Map.  There is sufficient lands zoned for residential development for a considerable time into the future.  It is important that housing development takes place at such pace and density so as to fully integrate with the existing community without creating unbalance. It is the policy of the Planning Authority to ensure that any development in this location should be connected to the public sewer.

The area along the river has been reserved as open space, which may facilitate its use as a river walk. Development of Residential zoned lands to the east of Clashmore Bridge and just outside the speed limit area, will only be considered where it can be sewered by gravity, and where access is provided to lands to the rear.
