Dublin City Council's ballot measure includes good government reforms but fails to transparently disclose extended term limits, creating a dilemma for voters.
Although provisions against councilmembers accepting gifts and lobbyists on commissions are positive, the lack of clarity in the term-limit increase is concerning.
The term-limit provision, allowing a combined 12-year limit rather than the previous 8 years, was not properly communicated to the voters.
The council should be commended for not applying the term-limit change to themselves, yet their lack of transparency raises questions about integrity.
