The Mayor of Georgetown, Alfred Mentore, has extended an apology to residents in the vicinity of the Promenade Gardens on New Market Street in Georgetown for the noise nuisance that plagued their neighbourhood as a result of a “White & Gold” Toga Party that was held over the weekend.

The event was held by Hits and Jams Entertainment. Several residents in the area are still very upset as they described the event as traumatizing since the once quiet neighbourhood has now become a hot spot for events that infringe on their peace and tranquility. The recurring noise nuisance has become a matter of deep concern for those residing in the areas surrounding the Gardens. Moreover, they have noted that this was the worst experience they have ever had since living in the community.
