Wicklow golf course site central to Irish government rezoning push for 1,600 homes

The Irish government's initiative to compel councils to rezone land for housing has turned a golf course in Greystones, County Wicklow, into a flashpoint, with 1,600 homes proposed. The move reflects a policy shift toward increasing housing supply, but faces local opposition and planning hurdles. The outcome will signal the government's ability to execute its housing agenda amid community resistance.
