Report: Car wash, food van “unbearable challenges” for Wickham’s Cay Development
According to the 2011 Annual Report provided by the Wickham’s Cay Development Authority that was laid in the House of Assembly on July 24, 2012, it was disclosed that businesses and unauthorised entities that are situated in the vicinity of Wickham’s Cay tend to pose as challenges to its development.
According to the report, the owners of a car wash operating their business in the parking lot adjacent to Bobby’s Supermarket, constantly damages the plants around the development and has also destroyed one of the lights that was in the area. An excerpt read, “the owner of the business that is unauthorised to operate in the area has not accepted any responsibility for the damages.”
The report further stated that another business in the area, which continuously threatens the survival of Wickham’s Cay, is a food van operating in the area of the taxi stand by Bobby’s Supermarket.
“They continue to operate without permission from the authority and have contributed to lots of garbage on the ground and in the area.”
Close to the food van, the report indicated that another threat/challenge, is a garage in operation out of a little shed. “That area is also unsightly.”
The report added “trailers, pallet boards, derelict vehicles and garbage have created an unsightly scene on Wickham’s Cay. Persons who own boats in the area, have also kept the place very untidy, with lots of garbage on the ground.”
Management of the Authority noted that despite these challenges, they continue to work with various departments and their maintenance crew to assist with their existing challenges.
“Overall, we have been able to keep the authority functioning as well as it could despite the many challenges.”
