And aside from the Tides in the downtown STREETS, Pollard says that they are also wary of the conditions of the streets in the Kings Park area, particularly St Thomas Street, one of the busiest sections. He says that they have joined forces with other entities to see how they can address the problem.
Allan Pollard, Deputy Mayor, Belize City
"St Thomas Street is long overdue as you may know we have more streets that we are doing the city has mostly been either government or city council this one is kind of a mix it is city council it's government and we've involved the utility companies as well. As you know, there has to be some level of paperwork to ensure that each participating body is getting their fair share of the deal so we have had to liaise with BTL we have liaised with Belize water services, also with the ministry of infrastructure and also with the Belize city council, so we had a lot of contractual setbacks in terms of getting the proper contract and getting the contractor to agree to the terms that we usually provide, and also to get us to agree as well and of course, the other stakeholders to get in there as well, but I am confident that after the September celebrations, we should start that project very soon. I know the resident clamor for this to be done. I know who also travel the area, but I can assure the community that it will be done very very soon."
