Boatyard development delay
Kerry County Council is working on proposals to compulsorily purchase (CPO) the site for which there are plans to provide a €13 million arts centre and theatre. The council has already demolished buildings on the site which was once an eyesore but it is hoped to develop it as an amenity for local people and visitors.
According to the council, significant progress has been made in the past year, but a number of claims to the site have to be dealt with before the CPO process can be completed.
