City chief urged to rebuild trust with politicians
The call came last night as Ann Doherty, the council’s first female chief executive, attended her first full council meeting at the end of her first day at work in the organisation.
The meeting heard examples of how councillors have lost trust in some senior officials over several issues, including the Deanrock landbank sale, the management of the housing maintenance department, and a decision to proceed with a controversial bike lane on the Lower Glanmire Road.
