Inspection and Updates
Minister of Housing Melissa Poponne Skerrit, Member of Parliament for the Soufriere Constituency Denise Charles, and Cal Murad, Project Director of MMC Development Ltd, visited the site on Friday for inspection.
According to Melissa Poponne Skerrit, the site is one of the most beautiful housing developments on the island due to its breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. She expressed her happiness for the imminent completion of the remarkable housing initiative in Scott’s Head.
The Minister of Housing told the media that the development is the first of ten planned sites to welcome deserving families soon. She emphasized that the Ministry of Housing is working diligently to bring this vision to life, providing new homes just in time after Hurricane Beryl’s impact on the island’s southern tip.
