<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Fifty-one (51) families of the Roseau Central Constituency received keys to their new apartments on Thursday.<\/p>\n
The apartments dubbed, \u2018City Breeze Apartments\u2019 are located at Upper River Bank in Roseau.<\/p>\n
The apartments are 1, 2 and 3 bedroom units, spacious and are promoted as being of a superior design. There are also 9 commercial business spaces, two of which will be used for arts & craft and a tech centre.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a heartwarming occasion for these families who have waited long for the blessing of a new home which offers peace, comfort, security and constant river breeze,\u201d Parliamentary Representative of the Roseau Central Constituency, Melissa Poponne-Skerrit said while addressing a handing over ceremony.<\/p>\n
According to her, while there were hundreds of applications for these apartments, she is confident that the most deserving have been selected to receive “this blessing today.”<\/p>\n
\u201cOften times looking from the outside, we are quick to cast judgments because we do not have first-hand knowledge of the true circumstances of the people who live and work among us, but I do,\u201d Poponne Skerrit noted. \u201cAs Parliamentary Representative, I have a good relationship with my constituents and as a friend to my constituents, I know of their joys and I know of their hardships and I understand how these new homes will brighten their circumstances\u2026,\u201d<\/p>\n
She said that in addition to the apartment complex at the upper River Bank the government has refurbished dozens of private homes in Roseau under its\u00a0 housing revolution and several senior citizens have benefited from this initiative.<\/p>\n
Poponne-Skerrit revealed that over the next months, the government will pursue more urgently the construction of a second housing complex near the promenade near the River Bank.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot only will this boost our housing stock and improve the socio-economic conditions of more of our constituents, but it will further beautify the area and will help fulfill our vision for the enhancement and beautification of the City of Roseau,\u201d the Roseau MP stated.<\/p>\n
Meantime, Project Manager of Montreal Management Consultants Est (MMCE) Cal Murad describing MMCE as partners in Dominica\u2019s development, said the apartments are not only beautiful, but were built and engineered to withstand a category 5 Hurricane,<\/p>\n
\u201c\u201cWe want to ensure that all our projects are built to standards\u2026 so we guarantee that you are receiving the best,\u201d the MMCE representative said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fifty-one (51) families of the Roseau Central Constituency received keys to their new apartments on Thursday.
