The Mayor and City Council’s (M&CC) attorney Roger Yearwood has informed the council that their two major garbage collectors, Cevons Waste Management Inc and Puran Brothers Disposal Services, are in breach of their contracts after they chose to suspend their services last month.
Sharing his legal opinion with the council, Yearwood said that the contract makes no provision for suspension of works.
The two companies on November 26th, withdrew their services from the municipality after it failed to pay a total of $160 million for the work they have done since June. The two companies, not long after, issued a joint statement calling on Central Government to intervene in order for them to be paid.
