Planning decision on Kerry mosque stalls over ‘call to prayer’ query
The application, the second in recent years, was lodged with Kerry Council on behalf of the Kerry Islamic Cultural Centre in April.
The proposal concerns a 2.24-acre site in a business park at Killerisk, on the eastern edge of Tralee. The business park contains an Eircom exchange and is bounded by housing. The mosque will have an 18m high dome, 23.6m high minaret, parapets and assembly hall. It is primarily to act as a prayer centre for the local community, but accommodation for visitors is also proposed.
