Cabinet convened to address the construction of new homes in Barbuda, specifically at the Louie Hill site.
The discussion focused on the ongoing preparations for the land designated for the housing project, which aims to transform the area into a thriving community.
While the boundaries of the Louie Hill site have been established, officials noted that detailed surveys of the blocks and parcels have yet to be completed.
The Cabinet reached a consensus that these surveys will be conducted progressively, ensuring that all necessary assessments are in place before proceeding further.
Furthermore, the Cabinet stipulated that the removal of vegetation must align with a defined survey plan to protect the local environment during the development process.
