Council Affairs: Mayor drops the dart The Admiral of Limerick City and County Council (LCCC), Mayor John Moran, took his naval fleet out onto the majestic waters of the River Shannon last Friday. However, what was supposed to be a routine voyage turned into a maritime mishap when the mayor accidentally dropped his ceremonial dart overboard.
