KINGSTON, Jamaica — The Kingston and St Andrew Municipal Corporation (KSAMC) continued its drive to remove illegal signs and billboards on Sunday, targeting plazas in the Half-Way-Tree area.
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the KSAMC, Robert Hill, said the municipality has seen an increase in compliance but noted that the KSAMC will still write to delinquent business operators to urge them to settle outstanding arrears.
“I believe that there’s a general increase in understanding amongst business owners and persons who are responsible for signage, and we would have seen that in terms of the increase in compliance throughout the January-to-March period, as well as when we have gone into the enforcement action period. So there is some amount of increase in the compliance rate and the comprehension around that, but we still have to be out here doing the enforcement bit, and once we’re doing the enforcement bit, I suppose the numbers would increase because persons are understanding why we have to do this,” Hill said.
