The government yesterday announced that 600 house lots are to be developed for Bartica.
A release from the Government Information Agency said that following
President Bharrat Jagdeo’s commitment during a recent visit to Bartica, Region 7, for the housing programme to be expanded, Minister of Housing and Water Irfaan Ali and a team of officials visited and inspected the site at Five Miles.
The release said that work will commence as soon as today as a team of surveyors will be on location to complete the Block Survey where more than 100 acres of land is set to be developed for approximately 600 house lots.
Minister Ali explained that the initiative is in keeping with the administration’s drive of ensuring that each Guyanese attains his or her dream of home ownership.
GINA said this move comes as an extension of the housing programme at Four Miles Bartica where a scheme was developed recently.
