Property tycoon fails to comply with order

MULTI-MILLIONAIRE property tycoon John Byrne has failed to carry out extensive site finishing works at a housing estate in Fenit despite being served with an enforcement order by Kerry County Council.

The Ansbacher account holder, who has been a witness at the Moriarty and Mahon tribunals, responded to the enforcement order by lodging a fresh planning application for a revised schedule of works on the road in the coastal village of Fenit in Kerry.

Mr Byrne originally received planning for the site 11 years ago and it remains unfinished with an unpaved road, no lighting and no footpaths.
