RESIDENTS OF BELLEPLAINE, St Andrew are prepared to step up their action, notwithstanding the refusal to meet with them from the highest official in the land.

The residents are speaking out against the intention to incorporate the Belleplaine police station into District F in Horse Hill, St Joseph. As such, they sent off a petition, with more than 300 signatures, to Governor General Sir Elliott Belgrave asking him to intervene.

However, a source close to the matter told the MIDWEEK NATION a reply from the Governor General’s office indicated there would not be a meeting.

“The Governor General has notified the persons who submitted to him a petition from the people of Belleplaine against closure of the Police Station that he is unable to accede to their request for an audience with him.  .  . (CA)
