After 22 years on the oft-criticised Mayor and City Council and serving as its Deputy Mayor, Patricia Chase-Green is seeking a second chance at tomorrow’s election in Tucville-North Ruimveldt as she said she was “stifled” from performing.
Chase-Green representing the coalition government in Constituency 12 of Georgetown will go up against PPP/C representative Tricia Kippins, Royston Alkins for Team Benschop for Mayor, Team Legacy’s Linden Hinds and individual candidates Hubert Maloney and Clifford Fogenay.
Chase-Green is only on the coalition’s First-Past-The-Post list meaning that if she loses the election she will not be returning to the council.
For Chase Green, 64, participating in the elections means she has a second chance to improve her community. She says that while she was a sitting councillor, she and the council were stifled and couldn’t have done much for her constituency.
The former Good and Green Guyana council member said she has started to address roads and security issues in the constituency.
