I am still waiting on the Ministry of Housing to deliver

Jan 13, 2017 Letters

Dear Editor,
In May of 2015, my dream of becoming a homeowner was finally in sight when the Central Housing and Planning Authority called and told me that I had been selected for the award of a house lot as part of their one stop shop initiative. I was so ecstatic for my fifteen years’ wait for a house lot has finally been over. I saw many faces as gleeful as mine when I went down to the Convention Centre where the one stop shop was held. I paid the required deposit and subsequently the balance within two months. I was told that the house lot to be situated in Cummings lodge would be ready in six months since the CHPA is still in the process of developing the lands.
In four months from this date, it would make two years since I had done this transaction and am yet to receive my house lot. I had made several attempts to enquire about the delay but on all occasions was told that they’re awaiting a board decision or a budget to be approved. I am, like many others still waiting and I’d like to ask the Honourable Minister responsible to follow up on this matter so that closure can be brought to this project.
