Cork developer lodges planning application after complaints about unauthorised carpark

Progressive Construction Ltd, of which developer John Cleary is a director, has sought full planning permission to retain an existing car park, with capacity for up to 350 vehicles, which is on city council-owned land near the City Gate complex in Mahon.
Mr Cleary’s company, John Cleary Developments, has been credited with developing the sprawling City Gate complex during the teeth of the recession — a vast campus which is home to thousands of tech and software jobs.
