Cork Council Eyes Rent Hikes for Social Housing | Cork News
Description
Cork City Council is eyeing rent hikes for some social housing tenants to fund a major maintenance overhaul, but tenants are furious — arguing the council already takes in millions and “poverty proofing” is just code for more money from struggling families. With heating, mold, and dampness still rampant, residents say they can’t afford higher rents while basic repairs go unfixed. Budget talks resume post-summer, with councilors balancing urgent infrastructure needs against tenant hardship — and consultations are set to ensure all voices are heard.
