Gov’t to build houses in cohesive communities

Jun 06, 2015 News

The Ministry of Communities is working towards constructing approximately 4,000 houses in cohesive communities over the next five years that would benefit over 4,000 households, and therefore more than 16,000 persons.
Minister within the Ministry of Communities, Keith Scott is working assiduously with his staff to “Renew the Dream” that will enable Guyanese to access improved community life. The Ministry is in the process of refining the strategy that would see the implementation of an holistic plan to provide for the shelter and social needs of the nation.
The houses will be built as part of the cohesive communities’ initiative, where there will be an emphasis on the provision of social infrastructure and other amenities, in addition to the regular services such as electricity, roads and water distribution networks.
The idea of cohesive communities is to ensure that the shelter and other needs of households are met, in an effort to address issues such as availability of daycare facilities, functioning playgrounds, proximity to jobs, schools and other amenities that are consistent with improved quality of life in communities.
In addition to this drive to house families and other eligible persons, house lot distribution will continue for persons who wish to build their houses. Minister Scott will be available to meet with the members of the public (Public Days), every Wednesday, commencing June, 10, 2015, between 09:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
