Local residents of the Dingle reacted angrily to the news that out of town contractors were used to rebuild the building after the trust promised residents that local contractors would be used. Many locals are also infuriated that many of the facilities for the youth of the local area have been scrapped as well as the high prices for use of the function rooms. Much of the funding that the trust were awarded may not have been awarded had they known that the local people would be "priced out" of using the facilities.
