THE BROWN'S Town municipal bus park in St. Ann is losing thousands of dollars monthly, but St. Ann's Bay Mayor, Councillor Delroy Giscombe, is formulating a plan he hopes will both stop the financial haemorrhage and allow for the facility to be properly utilised.
The park lost over $3,000 in May, and Mayor Giscombe disclosed in a statement today that much of the ongoing loss was accumulated by huge garbage clean-up bills.
He says the excessive garbage results from too much illegal selling at the bus park, which is also being used as a prime illegal municipal garbage dump.
Furthermore, the mayor pointed out, the bus park was neither properly fenced, nor its entrance/exit adequately secured and monitored situations he plans to amend shortly.
Mayor Giscombe describes the Brown's Town bus park as "a viable proposition but it is too small, and under no control whatsoever."
