Dear Sir,
Recently the Upper Corentyne Chamber Of Commerce and Mr. Bankay were on CTV Channel 19 (a local television station in Corriverton) to promote a housing area at No. 75 Springlands Garden, Corriverton. During the programme, which was impressive, I decided to visit the area with a view to purchasing a lot. However, what I discovered was very disappointing because of the following:
1. The lots need massive developmental works (filling).
2. The drains on the northern and southern side of the access way are too small to take the waste water, which would be derived from the intended houses.
3. The access is far from completed.
4. No paals are available to determine the size to the lots.
Mr. Bankay claimed that the first and second certificates for transport for building were issued for the development. If this is true then the office of the Mayor and Town Council of Corriverton and the Environmental Health Officer who recommended the first and second certificate should be disciplined, since these certificates cannot be issued before all the works are completed. I have worked with the Housing Ministry and I know of the procedure.
The programme is misleading to the general public and the Central Board of Health, which is responsible for issuing the certificates, should send an officer immediately to look at the area and cancel the certificates in the interest of the public.
