Mayor of the City of Castries, Peterson D. Francis, has been commended for an incident-free 2017/2018 cruise season which resulted in no negative feedback being reported by cruise passengers during that period.
The commendations came via email to Mayor Francis from one of the island’s leading tour operators. Mayor Francis was also applauded for the work of the City Police Department and the general improvements made to the City of Castries.
Mayor Francis thanked all for the high praises given to him and to the council, and pledged his commitment to the safety and security of citizens and visitors to Castries.
“Despite ongoing security concerns, we were able to address matters of security especially that of our citizens and visitors. Praise is appreciated, but we also need to marry our efforts to sustain our successes in whatever way possible,” he said.
The mayor added that security needs to be a priority in order to make the City of Castries a safe and viable place to conduct business.
The Office of the Mayor aims to provide a vibrant and effective City Police Department, and appreciates the support of all stakeholders who benefit directly from the tourism industry.
