Dear Cllr. Baker,

Over the last couple of days I have had distressed and irate neighbours in my area call to my door and hand me Christmas Cards that were sent to them by you.

As you are fully aware you and Eugene Regan canvassed, lobbied and subsequently voted FOR the Monkstown Ring Road in spite of huge local opposition.


As you are also aware, per your own EIS Study, this road will have severely detrimental effect,"........... in terms of noise, health & safety, visually" on the residents of Brookville/Rowanbyrn.

Our residents are extremely worried; those who-have been trying to sell their houses have found it impossible to, and indeed their houses have devalued up to 40% as a direct result of this.


The children's play areas and green spaces have been taken away, their lives put in danger and their Christmas ruined with the atmosphere of fear and trepidation.

YOU, Cllr. Baker see fit under these circumstances to send them a Christmas card wishing them a Joyful and Peaceful Christmas when by your own actions you have ensured that this will DEFINITELY NOT be the case.


Is this your idea of a sick joke?

On behalf of the Brookville/Rowanbyrn Residents Association and the Alliance I hereby return to you your Christmas Cards and request that you no longer subject our residents to your sick sense of humour.


Yours sincerely,

ALAN O'REILLY
TREASURER
BROOKVILLE RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION
