What happened to medium density, 3-5 floors, why the hell does Lyford Cay would need that. The services, small roads, lack of good public transport, lack of consistent power, and hurricanes show that tall permanently occupied accommodations isn't viable.

Who wants to walk up the stairs when your on the 9th floor. 6 story's is as high as residences should go in this country unless we solve these issues.

Yeah and a bajillion percent raise in rates as well

How much Taxi drivers does this tiny country need. The rates will have to go up for individual drivers if
1 They don't own their plates
2 More than necessary taxi drivers in the industry
3 Not serving the Bahamian Native market
4 Lack of commercial unionizing to form companies.

Unfortunately this stupid government just gave out 600 new plates for no good reason and refuse to regulate this long standing industry.

We all know the history but right now its going down the drain because of poor policy in Public Transportation.

Mr. Pinder you should put it as a stock investment on ArawakX, you'll probably raise the funds.

Yep I totally agree hats off to whoever idea it was to make the shift to online services. As well i would like to commend the development team of the project.

The reason why the 4 referendum bills were rejected was misinformation and lack of info. Either through negligence or intention the government refused to properly explain what each bill would bring. People were led to believe things about the bills that wasn't the case because of the government not informing Bahamians and muddying the waters.

All you needed was the PM to come on TV with a journalist asking him questions in relation to the bills and the properties and people would understand. The same bills would pass today and even possibly then if they explained the bills.

The reason why there isn't backlash to the bills being implemented now is because it was always popular enough but was very fishy and not understood by voters. Bahamians being a cynical electorate hate the wool being pull over their eyes and voted no in protest.

The government needs to stop building out and needs to build up eventually. Nassau is running out of room(green vacant land), we need to restore historic abandoned structures in Downtown and other vacant developments (brownfield sites) to build on and up.

All these run down place on the side of the road and especially downtown on Bay street that owners can't take care of that we leave there. Yet we take up more space and send people further out to have to drive to work making more traffic.

With the lack of invest in public transport, growing populations, and suburbs streching miles away for centers/services. Traffic is bound to get worse and the road can only get so much bigger. Just as you can only cut down so much forest.

This development strategy is unsustainable

1. Marijuana is the least of this countries concerns
2. Proper regulation laws aren't in place to legalize, if done without them chaos will ensue
3. Medicinal Marijuana usage is used as a trial period for legalization and is separate from commercial/industrial use. The way the government refers to this issue makes them look like they mean recreational use instead of medicinal use when it should really only get medicinal clearance.
4. The government needs to ensure that medical avenues for marijuana are strictly enforced and doctors don't hand out marijuana to those who don't need it.
5. The government needs a registry of users of medical marijuana
6. Marijuana farmers need to be vetted like doctors to not hand out their crop unlawfully and the legal sales take place to legal vendors.
7. Marijuana farming has to be restricted like the taxi or jitney industry so that too much land and resources are taken for a cash crop/non food crop.

Hopefully the Food Store has cameras.

There are only so many places you can load a boat on this island. What is so hard about looking at these few places. The Canals and gated communities are a great start.
