Dublin councillors again vote for 15% LPT reduction

Council management had asked instead for a 15% increase, which would raise an extra €24m, to maintain services.

Councillors have the power to reduce or increase the rate by 15% and Dublin City Councillors have voted each year to apply the maximum reduction. The 15% reduction was supported by amendments from Sinn Féin, Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and The Independent Group. She pointed out that houses built since 2013 are exempt, leading to a loss of €16.5m for the city council.

Some good news at last

Ridiculous decision. They want to promise services but not to have the money to pay for them?

Reduce it by 15% nationwide.

The appropriate response would be for central government to also reduce the subvention to DCC by 15%

Well done them.

Incredibly short sighted but unfortunately not surprising.

To every lockdowner, pay up now and get used to it... no grumbling you know it was the right thing to do.

MayoCoCo why did you increase yours?

Well done. They know who votes for them
