Tipperary County Council is now being urged to issue a dereliction notice on the complex in an effort to get the Defence Department to take action.
Councillor Seamie Morris who has raised the issue before, feels its time to step up their action
While Councillor Morris feels it could address some of the housing shortages in Nenagh others like Councillor Michael O’Meara believes it should be restored fully given its historic significance.
