Residents want bush cleared

RESIDENTS OF Syndicate Lane, St Lawrence, Christ Church are concerned about a patch of bush which they are calling a health hazard.

One man, who requested anonymity, said the bush had been growing for months and the person who usually cut it had not come.

The bush is behind a house occupied by an elderly woman and her disabled son, neither of whom can cut it themselves. As such, residents are hoping Government could lend a hand.

“It’s not good to have all this bush around here, which harbours aedes egypti mosquitoes and rats. And with all the chikungunya talk, I want to know if Government can come and do anything because it’s a health hazard,” he said.

The bush is located in a corner and partially blocks the vision of drivers. (CA)
