Concerns Of More Illegal Dumping With Changes To Bin Charges
There are concerns that changes to the way we pay for our bins will lead to more illegal dumping.
The activity often takes places at Croke Villas in the north inner city.
Local Councillor Christy Burke says illegal dumping just beside Croke Park happens every day.
He explains that it’s not carried out by the residents but by people who drive by and throw their bags over the walls.
Christy says the flat complex is set to be demolished and redeveloped which is why illegal dumpers are abusing it.
He’s worried the changes to the bin charges will just see it happening even more.
The changes to the bin charges come into force this weekend, while the controversy will be debated in the Dail next week.
