The Water and Sewerage Company Inc. (WASCO), will now move ahead with plans to improve water distribution to residents of Bouton, following a judgement in its favour, handed down by the high court this week.
On Nov. 5, the High Court of Saint Lucia dismissed court actions filed against WASCO concerning the Belvedere/Bouton Water Supply Project. The land earmarked for the project had been vested in the crown, however, as a result of an injunction filed by the previous land owner in April 2018, preparatory works on the project came to a halt, until the matter was resolved in court. The high court actions commenced in April and May 2018 respectively which prevented WASCO from completing the Belvedere/Bouton Project within the estimated time frame.
