He expected to be told a list of services, like lighting, etc, but instead the person he spoke to said that "rates were used to make up the difference between what we take in and what we pay out."

So the only question now is - what you gonna do about it? You can sound off on a message board if you like. Or if you want to be a bit more constructive, you can get in touch with a local Councillor or two, get the relevant information, and push them to get it published. Your choice

It was lovely to take a spin out from Blackrock to Seapoint to DunLaoghaire to Sandycove. Now it is one way, with bicycle lanes taking up half the old road. There is traffic congestion everywhere along the route. Long delays. The next time I get a flyer in the door asking me to vote for them in the upcoming council elections I will tell each and every one of them what I think of them. They did not need to do what they did.
