The Barbuda Council on Wednesday July 23rd hosted a meeting with Caribbean Development Bank (CDB), British High Commission (Bridgetown) Infrastructure Advisor (UKFDO), Ministry of Finance representatives (MoF) and the Project Implementation Management Unit (PIMU) officials to discuss the progress of ongoing projects related to continuing relief efforts and resilience building following the 2017 Hurricane Irma disaster.
Funding for these projects came from Global Affairs Canada in 2017 and Restoration and Rehabilitation loans from the CDB as well as a grant from UK CIF. The projects include:-
Barbuda Council Administration Building repair and refurbishing
Community Centre repair and refurbishing
Disaster Management Centre – construction of new facility
Under-grounding of critical electrical transmission lines
Installation of Solar Power systems including battery storage at the community centre, Hanna Thomas Hospital, and the Barbuda Council Administration Building
The projects listed above have been completed and are now due for final official handing over.
Additionally the initiative includes the construction of a new Disaster Management and Community Centre to serve the Mulatto Quarter area of Barbuda and assistance to complete 9 kilometres of concrete roads. The proposed additional road works include:-
- From the end of the present concrete section of River Road (vicinity of Sand Ground Coconut Grove) heading north to connect with the Council built concrete road at BK Fuels gas station.
- From the Council built concrete road at James Corner heading west through Madison, passing the post office and Council Administration Building to connect with the concrete road at the end of Lagoon Drive in the vicinity of the Fisheries Complex.
- From the end of the Council concrete road heading north along Two-Foot-Bay Road, passing the new Disaster Management and Community Centre, to the Solar Power Plant (and beyond depending on availability of resources).
- Section of road connecting the asphalt road ending at Sir McChesney George Secondary School to the Two-Foot-Bay road.
The Council takes this opportunity to inform and update all Barbudans about these projects and to publicly thank the various agencies and their representatives for their assistance and look forward to continued cooperation for the benefit of all concerned.

Sure the have acquired balls from the tainted money they greedily grab from the same “white” people they accuse of exploitation. What a bunch of niggers!
The council should get the black Barbuda their beach front lands before Gaston sell all, keeping the people in one location as the slave master did is just power devolve to black skin from white skin, empower the people before Gaston use all Barbuda lands to empower PLH with a major financier from south Africa name Oppenheimer.
Gaston Browne “aka@ Faithful National #1/POS
When you grab it’s always an honest grab; and a result of innocent and hard work grab.
At no time are you the beneficiary of “white people money”, for you are a confused Oreo.
It all shows in your hypocrisy envy and hatred which knows no bounds.
