GEORGETOWN Mayor Patricia Chase-Green has questioned the city’s preparedness for a flash flood and called on councillors to meet and advise on the way forward.

“While we sympathise with our brothers and sisters in the Caribbean, I hope you are reading and following reports that there may very well be a flash flood coming to Guyana sometime after the hurricane,” Chase-Green said at the Council’s statutory meeting earlier this week.
“I would like to find out if there are any preparations; is there a committee set up? We are right on the water front. Our Stabroek Market is at a great disadvantage. I hope that the administration along with the councillors responsible for that particular committee that deals with that could sit and advise somehow or the other their preparedness for such an event,” she added.
