High Court Judge Jo-Ann Barlow has ordered the City Engineer to remove all encumbrances from in front of the Collections Boutique and Gift Centre located at 27 Water St, Georgetown.
This is according to attorney for proprietor of the business—Siand Dhurjon—who in a press release said that his client, Dian Balram, was being impeded from accessing her business premises by, among other things, vendors.
According to Dhurjon, the Court found favour with his argument that Bylaw 10 made under the Municipal and District Councils Act, places a statutory duty on the City Engineer to ensure that pavements, streets and parapets are unencumbered by persons placing things on them.
