Councillors ignore planners’ advice by voting to rezone land

MEMBERS of Kerry County Council are continuing to ignore their county manager and senior planners by voting for the rezoning of land in An Daingean, Castlegregory and Killorglin.

The rezoning will enable the land to be developed for holiday homes, business purposes and light industry.

And, in the face of huge growth in holiday homes in An Daingean and surrounding areas, a local group yesterday called on the council to halt such building.
