Sando business association says no to wrecking in city

“What I have found with this administration is that we get no communication from central government and now it is the same for local government,” said Bartlett.

“They never requested a meeting with us and they just decided that this was best for the city.” The decision to reintroduce wrecking was announced in a statutory meeting of the San Fernando City Council one week ago. Bartlett said she has no problem with wrecking being done for the Carnival season to make room for passing bands, “But after Carnival, the mayor and his team has to look at what is being offered to the shoppers and commuters in the city. Have you offered a car park for the shoppers?” Bartlett said that unless an alternative car park is created for the inner city of San Fernando, wrecking people for parking would only deter them from shopping and will ultimately harm business.
