'Not enough support from Gov't for clean up efforts'- First District residents
These sentiments have been expressed many times during community meetings and during interviews with our newsroom.
'District Rep cannot do it alone'
Speaking to a resident of Carrot Bay on Monday, November 6, 2017, they expressed that the District Representative is trying to help but it is not enough when he is unable to receive support from Government.
"I've been helping with a number of the clean-up and sometimes we run out of supplies to actually do the clean. There is a lot of work to be done but we need the help in getting what we need to rebuild. The District Representative cannot do it by himself," said the frustrated resident.
Pamela B. Harvey, resident of Zion Hill commented that she is "tired of all the talking and more is not being done to rebuild the first district and the territory on a whole."
"I support the clean-up efforts in my community because we can't wait on government to start doing for us. I would want to see more support but I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon," said Mr Francis P. Johnson.
The First District residents are, nevertheless, continuing their clean-up campaign to help with the rebuilding of the territory.
Great job!
Meanwhile, Hon Fahie said Monday November 6, 2017 "was the end of a two day community clean up of Carrot Bay by the Carrot Bay Community. Anything is possible when a community works together. Great job."
