What the Bible thumpers fail to remember is “do unto others as you would have them do unto you” If the “gays” protested outside of the church there would be “hell” to pay. Lol.

Hubert, you had five years and you failed miserably. Please just go away, never to be seen or heard again.

If that were my daughter the owner would do well to go to the police and asked to be taken into custody for their own protection. The law has some mercy, Fox Hill is a safe space in this situation.

One notable area brimming with opportunities for investment lies in the demand for additional housing and accommodations

Ms Miaoulis is correct, there is a severe shortage of affordable housing for Bahamians. The govt is doing everything in it's power to assist foreign investors but what incentives are offered to Bahamian investors to invest in the housing market?

While the rampant pace of development continues, what is the govt doing to ensure that a Haitian with a gardeners work permit isn't running a property management business?

Foreign land owners are allowed to build their own homes; I would imagine this policy was put in place to encourage development decades ago when things were a lot slower, and allowing an individual the opportunity to own their dream cottage in The Bahamas. Nowadays you have people buying land, building a house (often with little to no Bahamian labour) and immediately putting it on the market.

There is an environmental price to pay for all this development as well, please see recent letter to the editor from Fred Gottlieb in the Nassau Guardian. It would appear to me that the govt is solely focused on one side of the equation, bringing in investment but they are completely ignoring the other side, what is happening to these island and their inhabitants? What are the real impacts of all this development?

There's a lot that can be said on this subject but I honestly feel it's falling on deaf ears as administration after administration continues to do the same thing and that is operate in secrecy and not give local boards any real decision making power on local affairs.
