Another Fire, In Spanish Town
The Brunswick Early Childhood Development Centre was destroyed by fire recently. This school is on Brunswick Avenue in Spanish Town, which caters to approximately 100 students, one parent said.
Bystanders were quick to blame JPSCo for the fire, but fires don't just start like that. We have had a few market fires, and my understanding is that these fires are due to the stealing of electricity. Minister Desmond McKenzie alluded to this while speaking on a visit to the Buff Bay market, which was destroyed by fire. The market is now being rebuilt.
There is a danger to those who make illegal connections and those who might accidentally touch electrical wires illegally connected to JPSCo lines. JPSCo mains can become overloaded due to numerous illegal connections, and that can cause fires.
Our leaders and our people will continue to blame JPSCo for unstabel power supply, electrical fires, and injury to citizens rather than deal with the challenge of illegal connections. If we cannot hear, then we must be prepared to feel it.
The government must work out a plan with JPSCo and the people in the various communities to reduce the incidence of electricity theft and the danger resulting from this.

Live and Work in Snow!
My brother Gregory Smith sent me this picture showing outside his home in Canada. We talk about working conditions in Jamaica, and if it rains, we cannot go to work. I wonder what we would do if we had winter in Jamaica.
KSAMC Getting Ready For Carnival
Richmond Park Needs KSAMC's Attention
The KSAMC now needs to take a serious look at the commercialization of Richmond Park and what some residents claim are illegal businesses going on in the community. We must support our council in ensuring that the laws are maintained, especially in areas like Richmond Park.
The traffic is horrendous in the area, especially in the mornings and the afternoons. The elderly residents cannot sleep in peace. Dr. Peter Phillips, are you still the MP? I understand that the new councillor is not sure which division she won in and apparently she cannot locate the area.
Cars are parked on the sidewalk, impeding pedestrians from using it and cars are parked on both sides of the road, reducing the road to one lane.

Richmond Park has been a sore talk and point.
ReplyDeleteFor decades people have been . complaining as far back as the 90s when all sorts of garages and businesses started to open up.
Back then that could have been controlled.
Now that the sore for has become a cancer that has metastasized to other areas near and far what kind of therapy will the inept KSAMC and other authorities apply.
????
The authorities need to do them job and act against all these businesses places popping up in Richmond park. When citizens make report the mayor must act
ReplyDeleteAutorities have fallen down on their duties. Why are people able to breach zoning laws and put anthing just about anywhere without consequences. Haveing developed their properties people deserve peace and quiet and to be able to enjoy the fruits of their labour. Their quality of life declines with the commercialisation.
