New chapter beckons for Cork commercial property rates

The old days: Women march to Cork City Hall in 1957 to protest over domestic rates. At the time, valuation levels had not changed for a century
A SIGNIFICANT and long-awaited transformation of commercial property rates is officially underway in Cork city and county, following the formal signing of a valuation order by Tailte Éireann.
This landmark order marks the commencement of a comprehensive revaluation process for all commercial and industrial properties in Cork, aimed at modernising and ensuring greater equity and fairness in the local tax base.
