IDA Ireland received the decision to grant planning permission from Westmeath County Council on the 24th of November 2022 for the construction of a c.50,000sq.ft. Advanced Building Solution consisting of office and light industrial/production spaces.
Following receipt of a satisfactory outcome from the planning process, and the completion of the detailed design phase of the project, IDA Ireland plan to commence the public procurement process for the selection of a suitably qualified contractor to complete the development.
It is IDA Ireland’s intention to appoint a contractor for the construction of the Advanced Building Solution in Q2 2023 with a view to commencing the development shortly thereafter.
The Deputy will be aware that the above dates are subject to change and will depend on a satisfactory outcome from the planning and procurement process. The appointment of the contractor will also be subject to approval by the Board of IDA Ireland.
IDA’s Property Marketing team will market the proposed Advance Building Solution in Mullingar to potential overseas clients through their network of global teams. This new development is part of IDA Ireland’s Regional Property Programme funded by Government to develop property solutions in regional locations. The proposed new building will assist IDA in winning new investments in the Midlands Region.
