Kerry County Council 'open to idea' of modular housing for locals

Independent councillor Donal Grady said 'not a single house' was currently being built in Killarney and people were being 'hunted out' to outlying towns and villages to housing they could not take up because they did not have cars. Picture: Don MacMonagle

The development of such housing "could pave the way for locals to have a key to their own property", a council meeting was told, but planning permission would have to be sought.
