Dear Editor,
It would be useful for the Minister of Housing to make a change for the sake of public convenience for application forms for house lots in Region # 2 to be made available at all the Neighbourhood Democratic Council offices in the district. Presently, these forms can only be obtained at the Regional Administration office at Anna Regina and from my own experience to get one recently it was not at all that easy.
All along, it was my honest belief that the Housing Department in the town was the proper place to uplift a form, but during a visit there it turned out to be a delusion when the advice was given to check some distance away at a given location.
Before reaching there, valuable time was wasted to get the form with much concern with the extremely poor showing and slothfulness by employees just gazing at me in a disdainful manner. Not even for the sake of courtesy did anyone see it fit to ascertain the reason for my presence there when it is within the line of their duty and not a favour to be of help to me.
In my humble opinion common sense should have prevailed in a logical way for these forms to be made available right at the Housing Department until consideration is given to the change with me being very optimistic that this will be done in keeping with all reasonableness.
This region stretches from Pomeroon to Supenaam and it is very expensive to travel all the way from either end just to get a form at Anna Regina when with the implementation of the change the unnecessary inconvenience and hardship would be eliminated once and for all.
Concerned applicant
