Kerry County Council recently got approval for funding from the Department of Housing for 38 social housing units in Cahirdown Wood Estate, where there are 80 houses.
Patrick Scannell, who owns a number of houses in the estate, says residents would support 20% of houses in the estate being given to social housing tenants but strongly oppose current council plans.
