Residents on the Essequibo Coast in Region Two were recently allocated house lots as part of the government’s “Dream Realized” housing initiative
The land allocation drive took place at the Anna Regina Town Council building over a two-day period (last Friday and Saturday), where the Minister of Housing and Water, Collin Croal and Minister within the Ministry, Susan Rodrigues, assured residents of Region Two that as the government continues to work toward its goal of 50,000 house lot allocations across the country, the people of Region Two would also benefit. Rodrigues said that the Ministry has thus far processed applications for Region Two allocations from as far back as 2019. She referred to this effort as a “huge accomplishment” as it tackles the backlog of applications which are coming in daily. “There were 70,000 applications when we took office and this number is growing.”
