failure and that the matter would be resolved the following week.
8) Transparency
The treasurer assured residents that the highest level of transparency would be adopted by this
administration. He also commits to regular updates in the form of quarterly statements and
encourages feedback from residents where clarification might be necessary.
9) Nuisance
Residents complained about the inconsiderate stance by some residents, where their dogs are left
to roam freely, becoming a messy nuisance to their neighbours. Mention was also made of the
burning of garbage which has proved to be a serious health hazzard to persons suffering from
respiratory illnesses.
Residents are asked to be considerate to our neighbours by having these animals confined to the
owner’s premises and also to desist from the burning of garbage.
