DublinTown Renewal

Dublin Town members will shortly receive ballot papers allowing them to renew the business improvement district for a further 5 years.

Click here to view the 2022 Renewal document.

  • Have someone to call when you need help
  • Have Christmas lights and additional street lighting
  • Encourage office workers and customers back to the city
  • Keep the street cleaning, graffiti removal and operations support that Dublin City Council will not do

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

2020/2021 Contribution Levies

Q: I heard that DublinTown is going to demand unpaid levies for the last two years.

A: This is FALSE.

For the sake of clarity so you can be confident in DublinTown’s support of you and your business:

We work with businesses based on their individual circumstances and we will continue to do so.

For 2020/2021 we only asked that people pay what they can, when they can.

We thank those who have contributed during lockdown, this has paid for Christmas lights, street cleaning and graffiti removal, marketing and promotion of the city and much more.

If you have any questions or comments, contact us at any time on 01 633 4680 or info@dublintown.ie.

We are here to support you.

Christmas Lights/Graffiti/Street Cleaning

Q: I have been told that Dublin City Council will do Christmas lights, street cleaning (and other services) and there is no need for DublinTown.

A: This is FALSE.

As has already been confirmed by Dublin City Council (Q136 at this link) they do not allocate budget for Christmas Lights on the 30 city centre streets that DublinTown covers.

DCC will only remove graffiti on their own (public) buildings. DublinTown removes graffiti from the walls and shutters of businesses in the city centre.

DCC has scheduled cleaning of city streets – however they cannot organise a rapid response to your problems the way DublinTown does. Human waste, needles, garbage bags – DublinTown’s Clean Team does this.
