The money to provide Council services in the Greystones district has not expanded even though the population has grown massively. I have researched the council finances and the other areas get more than 50% more per resident. This is why the roads, footpaths and litter are such issues in the Greystones District.

A lot of property tax is raised in the area but much of it is going to provide services in other areas. This has not improved since last year and if it does not improve in future I will be voting against this unfair treatment.  The same is true of Capital spending which is less than a tenth of that in other areas.
