Council ignores executive in hotel zoning decision
The unprecedented decision has been taken by Killarney Town Council to rezone the 20-acre Gleneagle Hotel complex, despite being strongly advised not to do so by town planner Fiona O’Sullivan.
Gleneagle managing director Patrick O’Donoghue is a Fianna Fáil member of the council. He remained in the chamber while the debate was taking place, but abstained in the vote.
