Limerick posters are ‘misleading’

It is with a very heavy heart that I write to you and ask that you reconsider the posters which you have installed in locations around the country, alarming visitors and residents.

Safety of both are paramount to me and I find these posters to be misleading.

For a great number of years, Limerick was acknowledged to have challenges with regard to the incidence and profile of crime in the city. This situation attracted national headlines, significantly damaging the image of the city and were responsible for compromising the feeling of safety of residents and visitors. There is a need for positive action, through which we can develop a more positive image for the city.
