SAVANNA-LA-MAR, Westmoreland — Councillor Warren Lyttleton (People’s National Party, Grange Hill Division) is appealing to the police high command to resume issuing permits for entertainment events in the area.

According to Lyttleton, a significant reduction in crime should translate into an opportunity to revive a sector that was once a source of income for many residents.

Lyttleton made the appeal to Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Othneil Dobson during Thursday’s monthly meeting of the Westmoreland Municipal Corporation (WMC), noting that Grange Hill residents have been unable to legally host parties and entertainment events for the last three years.
