Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Dereliction and Vacancy: Discussion
Brian Leddin (Limerick City, Green Party) | Oireachtas source
What is the position where a property is put on the open market, somebody acquires it and it remains derelict? I refer to circumstances where the new owner does not refurbish the property. At what point will the council go back to the new owner and say that the only reason the previous owner sold the property was because it had been stated that a CPO was going to issue? How much grace does the CCMA give to people in those circumstances? I can think of many properties in Limerick city that have changed hands but in respect of which nothing has been done. It is disappointing to see that.
