An Bord Pleanála adds Kerry urban areas to RZLT after dismissing appeals

The residential-zoned land tax, the collection of which is deferred until 2025, is set to hit landowners at a rate of 3% of market value of any land that is earmarked for housing development

Land parcels in Tralee, Dingle and Milltown have been confirmed by An Bord Pleanála as suitable for residential-zoned land tax.

Parcels of land "in established urban areas" in Tralee, Dingle and Milltown have been confirmed by An Bord Pleanála as suitable for residential-zoned land tax in what is understood to be the final tranche of appeals against their inclusion in Kerry.

Appellants sought exclusion from the RZLT maps on the grounds the land was not idle, and or did not have current footpaths, or access, or water and wastewater infrastructure was not in place.
