Town manager won’t back rezoning

THE controversy surrounding the proposed rezoning of the Gleneagle Hotel property in Killarney has taken another turn, with Killarney Town Council manager Tom Curran announcing he cannot go along with the wishes of the council on the issue.

Against the advice of council management, the council decided last month in favour of rezoning the 20-acre site for town centre development - although it is more than a mile from the centre of Killarney.

Mr Curran told this week’s council meeting that he cannot act in accordance with the motion.
