Owners of former Coca Cola site facing large tax bill

The owners of a site earmarked for Cork’s biggest-ever student accommodation development are facing a large tax bill, having lost a challenge to it being placed on a list of vacant sites.

An Bord Pleanála has confirmed the validity of Cork City Council’s decision to place the former Coca Cola bottling-factory site, on the Carrigrohane Road, on the vacant site register.
