Everyone can vote in local elections in Ireland, no matter their citizenship. In fact everyone can run for local election too... If you live in a place you should have some say on how it is run, how your taxes are spent. It causes no problems. National and constitutional votes are a different story... I am much less in favour of letting citizens who live abroad vote... at the end of the day, they have no skin in the game.
