Residents of West Ruimveldt Front Road are peeved at the actions of the Mayor and City Council (M&CC) which they deem as ‘beastly’, ‘unreasonable’ and ‘unjust’, following the demolition of their fences and homes.Reports are that the M&CC visited the area since Friday last and begun to break down fences and structures which were preventing excavators from accessing the area to clean the nearby trench and drains.A number of disgruntled residents complained on Tuesday that the M&CC should have issued notices about their plans.“Them tell we that we got to move. We get letters from housing because we apply. I get two letters. Them say how them will call we back. But them never did. If we get land to build on we would but them treating we like them don’t care ‘cause is not them,” said one woman.An excavator belonging to the M&CC entering the West Ruimveldt Front Road area to clean the canal while breaking down the homes and fences which “stood in the way”Another residents explained that she watched her neighbors’ fences and even some of their homes being destroyed.

The fences gone and walls break down. What about safety? They don’t have a heart?”Earlier last month, Public Relations Officer of the M&CC,NFL Jerseys Supply, Royston King,Cheap Jerseys China, in a press release stated that squatters along the embankment of the East and West Front Road Canal, Georgetown, are impeding desilting works being executed.Their reallocation to developed housing establishments is desired by the Council, said King.According to King, the City Engineer’s Department Report 2010 revealed that those squatters contribute to 80 percent of the waste in the North Sideline Canal. The inability of the Council to clear those waste and desilt the canal contributes to flooding, especially in the rainy season.The living environment of those squatters poses several public health concerns. King emphasised that some of them do not have the rudimentary elements of sanitary blocks and much of their waste are disposed in the canal.“Even those who have latrines have the effluent flow into that canal, consequently the ammonia support aggressive aquatic growth. This combined with the garbage restrict the flow of water in that channel, allowing mosquitoes to breed,” King stated.A few years ago the Council met with representatives of the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CH&PA) to discuss the relocation of squatters from along that stretch, which goes from Hunter Street to Mandela Avenue.From then to date, the squatters have built permanent structures on their limited land space.
