IT’S COMES AS no surprise that the world of property is fast-paced, so it’s understandable that having our fingers on the pulse, constantly, isn’t always possible. That’s why each week, we put together a five-minute round up of the week’s biggest stories.
Here’s what’s been happening…
A new Dublin city centre hotel beside department store Arnotts has been given the go-ahead.
Property developer Noel Smyth applied for permission to develop the tourism complex on land across Abbey Street Middle and Henry Street, which also includes the top three open-air levels of Arnotts’ car park.
US firm Equinix has purchased a new €5 million site in the city, but it is not yet known when development of the new data centre will start.
The 8.2 acres of land is north of the city in Ballycoolin, where the company already operates an existing centre.
A contract worth €5 million has been put out to tender by Irish Rail to deliver a bus service when required to customers.
The tender is looking for “competent bus/coach operators to provide transport for both bus hire as alternative transport to complement rail services during planned works and in the event of unplanned rail disruption”.
Cork County Council say that developing a 23km greenway along a disused railway line will boost the local economy, according to the Irish Examiner.
Proposed for East Cork, the Midleton to Youghal greenway, documents were published this week as part of the planning process.
The Revenue Commissioners sent letters to 12,000 homeowners, reminding them that short-term letting income is liable for income tax and that failure to pay could result in prosecution, according to the Irish Independent this week.
The letters came after the website provided details to the tax authorities of payments made to its customers over the past few years.
