Cork County Council is to seek “urgent legal advice” in an effort to prevent it “losing” a proposed €100m Kildare Village-type retail outlet centre which would create 850 jobs at a site in East Cork.
Many councillors reacted angrily to news that Local Government and Planning Minister Peter Burke supported the view of the Office of the Planning Regulator (OPR) that development of the retail outlet centre shouldn't proceed in Carrigtwohill.
