DWM seeking land on Tortola to store derelict vehicles & scrap metals
According to the Government Information Service (GIS) today, November 1, 2024, the land shall ideally be flat and not sloping, accessible to heavy and light equipment, and slightly hidden from mobile traffic.
In early October, controversy erupted over Government leased land in Pockwood Pond on the western side of Tortola.
Landlord blocked access to leased land over nonpayment
According to information reaching our newsroom, the Ministry of Health and Social Development was leasing land from M. Ashley Ritter to store derelict vehicles, but that lease expired over a few months ago and had not been renewed.
With the Government occupying the land without payment, the landlord used a large excavator to block access to his property.
It is believed that because of the Commission of Inquiry Recommendations, the land lease had to be tendered while the landlord had to do without payment even while the derelict vehicles remained on his property.
It is unclear if that matter has been sorted out.
