Point Fortin Mayor Clyde James is appealing for urgent Government assistance as the borough prepares for its Borough Day celebrations, which face significant financial challenges ahead of their launch.
Flanked by members of the council, James said in a video posted on social media that the Borough Corporation had been burdened with a $300,000 debt after its main sponsor, Heritage Petroleum, withdrew support following last year’s general elections.
