There are a few derelict shells directly behind the Rubis Gas station, a picture of which is attached. In addition, the guy incinerates his rubbish right on site. It appears that no one in authority can evict him. I am therefore appealing to the above-mentioned authorities to implement the Laws of Dominica and have this mechanic shop moved elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Castle Comfort resident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&nbsp; The Editor Dominica News Online &nbsp; Dear Sir, As a resident of Castle Comfort, I am appalled at the untidy mechanic shop at the entrance of my community.
