Councillors speak out about Carlow residents 'haunted' by neighbours from hell
The matter came up at this month's meeting of Carlow County Council
Councillors have called for greater enforcement across Carlow County Council's social housing stock after they were contacted by people "haunted by people making their life a misery".
The matter came up at this month's meeting of the Council and Cllr Michael Doran said the Council were "seen as a soft touch" by tenants who "think they can do what they like" in local authority houses.
"There is a total lack of enforcement. These people walk all over the community. People start to move out and the place turns into a bit of a ghetto," he told the meeting.
Cllr Will Paton also addressed the issue and said: "One galloping gobshite can make life miserable for people."
He added that the Council needed to ensure they weren't putting "one of these yo-yos in a housing estate".
