We need a plan for the 150,000 of us experiencing continuous power outages summer winter spring and fall, even post commissioning of miracle focol generators
The people are correct. What we advertise globally for the Bahamas is peace and quiet but only for the lucky and some tourists.
After this business makes one dollar the ministry of tourism/finance will start talking about compromise and balancing economic activity. The Bahamian public need access to unobstructed views of the ocean with sand not littered with shanty shacks or other people selling wares
Dont give in to one inch on the beach space on land sea or air
Clear Hold and Build is looking an awful lot like Saturation patrols. Recall the last time they ran into problems after willy nilly pushing down houses without notifying the owners. But if they're starting again perhaps they can push down the buildings on east Bay street.
Did they count the man whose teeth they knocked out or the woman that the ASP punched in the eye with enough force to detach her retina after she rebuffed his obscene sexual advances? In the end he had her arrested for the crime of *walking down the street* with instructions to the officers to "*bring her to **his** station*"?
Still no info on what happened to that officer, it wouldnt matter of the lady were a drug dealer, prostitute or serial killer. That's some serious sex slavery like behaviour that should have been taken very seriously. But wasnt. (Abuse of prostitutes is a serious issue by the way, they're often targets of serial killers). The only news outlet that even reported it was the Tribune everyone else said and acted like, "*not touching it*", not even to acknowledge the incident happened.
True but even if an island has as little as 1000 people a shelter built for 200 wont suffice. We need to distinguish between damage by a hurricane and damage simply due to our poor *disaster waiting to happen* decisions. Like why has the Sunshine group not been made to relocate all of Pinewood? If God forbid one day 100 people die from electrocution during a storm in that swamp what will we say? *Wow, what a bad hurricane*, *climate change* or *noone should have been allowed to sell that property for residential developmemt*
"*After the incident, police urged all drivers and passengers to ensure they wore seat belts.*"
I sometimes wonder if police are blind. Are they the only ones who havent seen those overloaded golf carts? How will 10 people, including children in laps of adults? each get a seat belt? Its probably over a year now that Erin Greene has been asking *someone who cares in authority*, maybe JoeBeth Coleby Davis, to address these open vehicles being used by tourists
