Tax exile Bono looks for mansion revamp
According to the plans submitted for approval to the Dún Laoghaire/Rathdown County Council, Bono and his wife, Ali Hewson, want to add a floor to their mansion, which, at 130sq m, is ample room to swing a basketful of cats.
Not having to pay the taxman has its obvious advantages — no sooner does one member of the band submit a planning application than another follows suit. The Edge, Larry and Adam, and Bono himself, have all been involved in many — and costly — home re-designing projects over the years.
