Local authorities are required to submit an annual return to my Department providing information on the implementation of the vacant site levy under the provisions of the Urban Regeneration and Housing Act 2015 in their functional areas. The most recent information provided by Kerry County Council in this regard is provided in the attached tables.

Under the provisions of the Act, local authorities are required to maintain a vacant site register in respect of properties deemed to be vacant sites in their respective functional areas. Under the Act, the register shall be kept at the offices of the planning authority and be available for inspection at the offices of the planning authority during office hours and on the planning authority’s website.

Further information to follow.
