Intent: There are many properties that are vacant for years despite demand for commercial premises. The Dungarvan & West Waterford Chamber wish to see vibrant urban centres where occupancy is priority and vacancy is discouraged. The D&WW Chamber believes that collection of rates on the vacant site levy and a rate on long term commercial vacancy would generate the additional revenue required by the Waterford Council for the inclusions in the 2022 budget

Details: Serious consideration be given to the collection (or non-collection) of rates by Waterford Council particularly in relation to the Vacant Site Levy (2017) which came into effect in Jan 2018 and to the Commercial Unit Vacancy Rate.
