Developer accused of ‘irregular’ mapping

A LIMERICK property developer yesterday dismissed claims by Junior Health Minister Tim O’Malley that new apartments built by him do not qualify for tax breaks due to mapping irregularities.

The site on which the apartments were built was at the centre of major controversy and Mr O’Malley had previously demanded an investigation into how the developer, Reidy Civil Engineering Ltd, had acquired it.

The site was part of the People’s Park, and contained maintenance sheds.
