Call for action over vacant Limerick store before €9.1 revitalisation works begin

DUNNES Stores has been asked to take action on its vacant store in O’Connell Street before work on the €9.1m revamp of the thoroughfare begins.
The unit has lain largely idle since 2008 when the company moved from three city centre stores to just one.
While the University of Limerick has bought the former outlet at Sarsfield Street and plans to develop it, the old O’Connell Street branch remains empty, despite planning approval for a restaurant on site some years ago.
With the €9.1m revitalisation of O’Connell Street set to commence in the near future, Labour councillor Joe Leddin pushed the issue at this month’s metropolitan meeting asking whether Dunnes had been charged for the empty retail units.
