On what dates are payments made to the Landlord?

Should I swim after heavy rain?

Heavy rain can wash pollution into rivers, lakes, and seas and in some instances overwhelm sewage systems. The impacts of these events are generally very short-lived lasting typically 1 - 2 days. Swimming after heavy rainfall is best avoided as it carries an added risk of pollution as well as a likely increase in the amount of sediment and turbidity in the water which would make it visually unappealing.

More information is available here.

Should I swim if the lifeguard red flag flying?

Never swim where a sign says not to or when the red flag is flying. The red flag is flown when there is a water safety risk like the presence of dangerous under-currents. The red flag can also be flown when there is an increased risk of illness if you go into the water or where pollution has been identified.

Should the tenant engage in Anti Social Behaviour (ABS) or cause a nuisance. What action is open to me?

The Council will have the responsibility for dealing with anti-social behaviour.

The ARV in 2010 was €69.20. This year it is €0.170. Why such a difference?

The reason for this is due to the revaluation process (Explained further below). In 2010 the total rateable valuation of all property in the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown area was approximately €1,287,000. The Council’s required rates income for the year was €89,060,500 giving an ARV (multiplier) of €69.20 (€89,060,500/ €1,287,000 = €69.20). 

Under revaluation all valuations increased to reflect open market rental values at the 30th September 2005. This means that in 2011 the total valuation of all properties in the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown area is €523,206,100. The Council’s required rates income for the year is €88,899,100 giving an ARV (multiplier) of €0.170 (€88,899,100/ €523,206,100 = €0.170).
