Episode Details

Tensions are rising in Ballinasloe over a botched lawn-cutting contract, forcing council workers to fix the mess — and sparking a fiery political showdown. Councilor Alan Harney proposes ditching the contractor to hire direct staff, but rival Dermot Connolly calls it a PR stunt, blaming Fine Gael for chronic underfunding. Harney denies the political spin, claiming he’s fought for better resources. Council management adds realism: no overnight fixes, but they’ll review the idea for next year — while the grass keeps growing.
