Section 2.8.2 |
| Proposed Material Amendment | |
|
Amend Section 2.8.2 ‘Population Projections’ under Table 2.6 with the following body text: The population projection for Meath is therefore 227,500 in 2026. The difference between the projected 2026 population for the county and the projected 2031 population is 4,000. When this growth is divided across the five-year period, it results in an annual increase of 800 people per year. This results in the population projection for Meath being 228,300 in 2027 (with population figures to be reviewed on the publication of the 2022 census). The consequent additional population for 2027 has been directed into Navan as this reflects the County Town and Key Town status of this settlement. Changes to Table 2.11 ‘Core Strategy Table as follows:
- Accommodate additional population (for 2027) The amendments to this table shall be reflected across the different sections of the development plan as required. |

Table 2.11: Core Strategy Table, Population and Household distribution to 2026
37 This figure does not include the units completed 2016-2019. The calculation of the household allocation has factored in the ‘pent up’demand for housing which has resulted in an increase in the average household occupancy rate for existing households. As the housing market continues to normalise and supply begins to meet demand it is anticipated that the average household occupancy rate for both existing and new households will begin to decrease.
38 This includes both greenfield and brownfield sites in the built up area of each settlement and consists of lands zoned for town centre, mixed use, and residential development. For clarification these units have been included in the Household allocation.
39 This does not include the 38.1ha SDZ at Clonmagadden. This SDZ will span over multiple Development Plans. Taking this into account in addition to the fact that a review of the Planning Scheme is required, the SDZ has not been included in the Household allocation for Navan.
40 Half of this population allocation (500 persons) is taken from the MASP allocation. This is provided for in section 5.7 of the Dublin MASP ‘Housing Delivery’. This is a preliminary figure, with the final figure to be agreed with the MASP Implementation Group. At the time of writing the MASP Implementation Group had not been established.
41 Under a Strategic Housing Development application permission was granted for 913 units. This is a 10 year permission where it is envisaged the lands will be developed across multiple Development Plans . Taking this into account 600 (two-thirds) of the 913 units have been included in the Household allocation during this Development Plan.
42 Includes provision for 30 no. social housing units

It is noteworthy that the yield from mixed use developments over the 2013-2019 plan period is relatively small at approximately 128 units. It is not anticipated that the quantum of lands zoned mixed use as part of the Draft Plan will lead to a significantly higher yield of housing outside of that provided for in Table 2.11. An assessment of the existing residential lands in the 2013-2019 plan period resulted in a yield from the existing residential lands of c.949 units. It is considered that the delivery of residential units on lands zoned existing residential will be low as development will be restricted to backlands and gap sites in existing residential areas. The expected number of units to be delivered has been accounted for as part of Table 2.11 and is consistent with the On foot of the above amended Table 2.11 and Section 2.8.2, further changes are required to the following sections
