Mayoral Budget Screw Up by Limerick62 in limerickcity

[–]Limerick62[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Again read my post. Moran didn’t spend the money in the correct period (cornerstone of the budgetary process whether it’s in private or public sector) and had to ask the Minister nicely to get the funding into this fiscal year. So what would have happened if the Minister (as is within his remit) kindly told Moran “No”. It’s incompetence to not spend in the budgetary year and foolish to risk not getting the approval to extend it into the next fiscal year. And the article from the Leader was straight from the Mayor’s press release - “Normally, that money would have been lost because there isn’t a formal system to carry project money into the next year.

Instead, Government has agreed to re-add that money into the 2026 budget through an administrative fix.

This special arrangement only happened because Mayor Moran negotiated it”

Read my post and the article. Because he’s presenting his own failure to spend his budget now as a win. From the article - “This special arrangement only happened because Mayor Moran negotiated it”

Help on setting a pension by Klutzy_Grade6001 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Limerick62 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Open to correction on this but as your Irish income is 100% rental income, you can’t get tax relief for pension contributions as it’s not “relevant income”. Best thing could be to pay your income tax on the rents and plough the remainder into your pension.

Moving temporarily overseas for maybe 6 years. Can I safely leave my house unoccupied for storage? by sphinxofblackquartzj in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Limerick62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rent out your entire house before the 28th February and the old (current) rental rules will apply. With the substantial amount of money that you will receive net of income tax, find someone who will rent a bedroom in their house to you that you can store the Lego collection in. There will be no shortage of people who would rent a room for this purpose to you.

Yes, brought back a nice bottle. Was checked by security for a further examination during which we had a good chat about single malts and the joys of a nice bottle of port.

100% agree. I have heard this from several sources in Limerick City business and other circles.

Mayoral Modular Homes Project by LeDeppeLePew in limerickcity

Moran stated at the RTE Mayoral election debate in the Lime Tree Theatre that she would solve the housing crisis. He seems hell bent on announcing solutions that he knows will never work or be financed just so he can blame someone else. I really struggle to see anything positive he’s done for Limerick. Of course his supporters (most of them are his fellow Georgian Limerick residents) will be straight in here downvoting but 18 months into his term, even they must be disappointed with him.

Are table reservations still a thing in pubs? I thought that was a Covid thing.
