Following moves by a faction of the Georgetown Mayor & City Council (M&CC) to deter beautification works to the environs of the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC), Mayor Hamilton Green has informed that he is taking the matter into his hands in order to provide a peaceful outcome.The GPHC enhancement project has been a source of contention.During a telephone interview with this newspaper,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, the Mayor noted that although he is in support of the enhancement project being undertaken by the GPHC,Cheap Nike Air Max Plus, it was started through the wrong procedure and consultation via the wrong medium.The construction of concrete flower containers at the entrance of the facility’s New Market Street entrances commenced last week,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping, following permission granted by Town Clerk, Carol Sooba.According to the Mayor, upon granting permission for the project,China NBA Jerseys, the Town Clerk consulted with no one. “This is typical of her behaviour. She thinks she is imperial over the City.”He added that had the Clerk sought proper direction by consulting with the Mayor and the engineers’ section of the council (where applications are initially lodged for reviews and recommendations before being forwarded to the Works Committee for overall approval), the situation would not have occurred.The Town Clerk,Cheap Jerseys Store, along with approving the construction of the flower containers, had also indicated that the roadside vendors who sold food items and confectionary at the facility’s entrance should be removed.With that, constables of the City Council were sent to urge the vendors to remove from the location. When Kaieteur News visited the location,Cheap Wholesale Jerseys, vendors had complained of being ousted from their selling spots because of the ongoing construction.The project has thus far been halted due to an order given by the Council’s Building Inspector after it was established that no official application was tendered to have the structures erected.According to Councilor, Gregory Fraser, the Town Clerk has no authority to authorize such works and thus her approval is not valid. Repeated efforts to contact the Town Clerk for comment proved futile.Nevertheless, the Mayor indicated that during the coming week, he intends to consult with the hospital’s administration as well as the vendors to find a peaceful way to solve the issue and to satisfy both sides. |
