Town council must expand revenue base

 

Dear Editor,
I NOTICED in the press recently that member of the National Assembly Mr. Bernard Rajkumar M.P, Attorney-at-law, Representative for Region Number 2, Pomeroon Supenaam, has suggested that a minimal fee be charged for using the Anna Regina car park.

I am in support of this venture, since the council is cash-strapped and has to expend monies to maintain the physical environment and ambience of the town. The suggestion was rejected by many, and I and many others found it surprising, since the car park can be used to generate finances to help alleviate some of the expenses.

I wish to urge the committee to once again re-examine this proposal, and as well to examine other means of bringing in more money to the council so as to help eliminate some of its burdens.
Yours truly,
Andrieko Basir
