A Monaghan councillor says the council and Irish Water are failing residents
of two local housing estates
Fianna Fáil's Seamus Coyle says the residents of Alders Housing Estate on

The works to the estates will cost significant capital spending, but the
council hope to have an outcome early next year.
Councillor Coyle received support for his motion asking for the expedition
