Plan for new City Hall admin dep’t being finalised – Town Clerk

The construction of a new building to house the city’s administrative department is feasible and the details are being ironed out, acting Town Clerk Sharon Harry-Munroe says.

During the consideration of the 2019 budget estimates, Minister of Communities Ronald Bulkan announced that $75 million will be allocated to the Mayor and City Council of Georgetown to construct a building that will house staff currently occupying the dilapidated City Hall building, which is expected to undergo renovation.

In an interview with Stabroek News, Harry-Munroe explained that with City Hall’s unstable financial status, they are unable to rent a building to house staff.
