Castlebar – The Mayo County Council has granted conditional approval for a new housing estate at Garryduff Park West site 2 in Snugborough, Castlebar. The application was submitted by MGB Land Holdings Ltd and received on 13 July 2025. The council’s decision, recorded under reference 2560464, was issued on 4 June 2026 after a review period that had been scheduled to conclude on 8 June 2026.

The approved scheme proposes the construction of 68 residential units, comprising two‑ and three‑storey dwellings. The conditional nature of the decision means that certain conditions must be satisfied before work can commence; these typically cover matters such as site access, environmental mitigation and compliance with local planning policies, although the specific conditions are not detailed in the public record.

The development will be situated on a site within Snugborough, Castlebar, and is part of the council’s ongoing efforts to increase housing supply in the area. The decision was made following an assessment of the application against the county’s planning framework and local development plan.

Residents and developers can now move forward with preparations for construction, subject to meeting the conditions set by the council. Further information on the application file, including drawings and any additional requirements, is available from the Mayo County Council planning portal under reference 2560464.
