AT 5:48 P.M. the Town Board has announced it will close the ONLY way to reach the North Side of the Island for Tuesday and Wednesday the two days prior to THANKSGIVING WEEKEND.
The weekend that all tourist accomadating and serving business, resorts, residents and Belizian EMPLOYEES and their families have been waiting for !!
I spoke with Mayorees Paz and she stated this is required to allow the contractor to complete the project on a time schedule.
They would not agree to postpone the project until after the holiday or to proceed with a half and half schedule to allow at least the golf carts to pass.
I was also assured that the bridge WOULD be open early Thanksgiving Morning.
Happy Holidays best wishes to our employees who will have to sit home and NOT get a paycheck because there will be no tourist to accomadate on the north end that travel from the south.
Respectfully,
Scott Harnish, Business Owner
