STOP THE RENT HIKES

SDCC is pushing through a rent hike that will hit thousands of families across South Dublin. They are proposing a 25% increase in the core rent rate. For low-paid workers receiving Working Family Payment, the hike could reach 53% while a couple both on the state pension face a 41% rise.

This does not just affect council tenants. If you receive HAP, Homeless HAP, or live in an Approved Housing Body home, you will be affected too.

We need to fight back now. A similar rent hike in DCC was passed by just one vote. If we organise now, we can stop this. In the Autumn, Councillors will vote on the Council budget and whether it should include rent hikes or find a better way to fund local services.

Sign the petition calling on Councillors to oppose the rent hikes.
