“The Georgetown Mayor and City Council (M&CC)  will recommence an aggressive campaign which aims at the removal of all derelict vehicles and other encumbrances from roadsides, sidewalks, parapets and reserves belonging to the City,” it said in a press statement on Tuesday.

It noted that owners of the vehicles and encumbrances removed in this manner will be also be fined for the removal and storage of the material.
