Council deal sees hotel get ‘town centre’ rezoning

THE multi-million euro Gleneagle Hotel complex, in Killarney, is to be rezoned in a compromise agreed by Killarney Town Council.

A year ago, a controversial “town centre’’ zoning had been sought for the 20-acre property, but Killarney Town Council has decided to zone the property for “tourism and associated facilities.

The zoning is substantially the same as what had been sought originally, but excludes office headquarters, major retail outlets and financial institutions.
