The authorities should deal with this furniture manufacturer
Stabroek News, Monday, October 15th 2007

Dear Editor,

For over one year residents of Lusignan West, East Coast, Demerara,
have been writing letters about the discomfort they are going through
because of the noise and dust emanating from furniture manufacturers in
that area.

There were investigations but to this day regardless of all the
investigations even by the Honourable Minister of Home Affairs, this
illegality continues.

What are the issues here? The issue is that no business of this nature
should operate in a residential area.

There was a letter by a resident (07.10.11) where the editor advised
the writer to seek legal help to solve the problem. Why should persons
have to pay legal fees to see that illegality is stopped? Justice for
those persons affected must not only be done, but must appear to be
done.

Where are those who are responsible to stop such a hazardous situation?
It would seem that the only way our people can have their grievances
heard is by coming out on the streets.

Yours faithfully,

Murtland Slugger Williams
