Garbage disposal in the city has been affected by bad weather at the current landfill site at Haags Bosch on the East Bank of Demerara.
Georgetown Mayor Alfred Mentore, along with Deputy Mayor Denise Miller, Solid Waste Director Walter Narine, and the Chairman of the Finance Committee Lelon Saul, held a press conference yesterday to address criticisms by PPP/C councillors.
These councillors had visited the Princes Street facility earlier in the day to assess what was happening at the Municipal Solid Waste Management Department and to find out why garbage around the city was not being picked up.
