M&CC granted construction permission for reserve land – Eddie Boyer
City businessman, Eddie Boyer, has confirmed that the Mayor and City Councillors of Georgetown (M&CC) granted him a lease and permission to construct on a piece of reserve at the Ruimveldt Industrial Site.
Construction is currently ongoing at the location with employees working on a metal frame for a building.
Yesterday, Boyer, the main principal of National Hardware, said that he had applied and waited a long time for a reply from M&CC.
“We have many customers coming to National Hardware and a parking area would have assisted in making their shopping experience more enjoyable,” the businessman said.
The ongoing construction at the Ruimveldt industrial site.
There have been questions about the structure as the land is reserved for M&CC.
National Hardware had applied for it for parking, fencing it along the way, Boyer said.
He also disclosed that M&CC was not interested in selling the property and was prepared to lease it.
“I think it is at least 10 years that the lease is for.”
Last week, Mayor Hamilton Green referred this newspaper to City Engineer, Colvern Venture, after saying he has learnt that an application was made for a building and permission was granted.
Venture also disclosed that permission has indeed been granted for the building by the City Council. This, he said, was based on an application.
Venture referred this newspaper to Town Clerk (ag), Carol Sooba, for more details.
Yesterday, Sooba refused to comment on the matter.

Mr Boyer, I would like to suggest that you provide the newspapers with a copy of your signed approval because having read the story it looks like your approval was signed by someone who did not have the authority to sign such a document.
Alternatively you might want to be the first one to make use of the corrupt PPP/C government “I paid a bribe hotline”
