If the government made crown land available south of Marsh Harbour, i'm sure the town would grow that direction. But over the past years, there is no land available to acquire. Heck i'd pay fair value for a 1 acre parcel to develop right now but it isn't available. Mr. Lewis may want to spend more time doing some homework before speaking out on matters which he is unfamiliar.
All of Downtown Nassau needs to be relocated too. its all at about 3 feet above high water mark. Once could argue that Marsh Harbour has more elevation than Nassau...
Jokes. just seen yesterday one guy building a massive covered balcony over and into the neighbors yard probably using looted lumber. another one putting up a concrete block wall to expand the building which is 1 foot from the boundary fence on the road. so much for setbacks and Property ownership much less building code. How can this be enforced when there are no boots on the ground in Abaco. saw the MH port building was finally demo'ed yesterday, finally after 5.5 months.
well when the adjusters are using inaccurate construction costs then of course everyone is going to be under-insured. Such a racket. It should be the insurance companies responsibility to ensure the homeowner has adequate coverage. not the other way around. is that really fair business? does this open up a dialogue on consumer protections from predatory insurance companies? How about insurance companies denying coverage on wood homes when the wood homes held up better in many instances than the concrete ones. Until you have a mechanism to cover the cost of insurance for the indignant, the under-privileged, destitute or just retired without income persons then mandatory coverage is unethical at best.
With the extortionate cost of living in the Bahamas it is not unexpected that the majority of people can't afford insurance...
The Bahamas Government and Central Bank should consider whether forcing persons to sign the Conditions of Average Clause as unconstitutional. If the insurance agent or broker is too lazy to ensure that their client has adequate coverage then something is wrong with the industry.
How do you arrive at the conclusion that an elected politician has the wherewithal to design and engineer electrical infrastructure? are you that blinded by the PLP political rhetoric?
