We got your back! – Falmouth’s Mayor says measures are in place to protect residents from COVID-19 spread
Mayor of Falmouth, Colin Gager,
says the Trelawny Municipal Corporation, which he chairs, has put a number of
measures in place to protect staff and members of the public against the
Coronavirus (COVID-19).
The safeguards, he said, include
the setting up of sanitisation stations at office buildings operated by the
Corporation.
“We also do regular cleaning of areas like the doorknobs and ensure that they are sanitised properly,” he said.
The Mayor added that hand washing
units have been installed at the entrance to the parish’s two markets in
Clark’s Town and Falmouth and that the facilities are sanitised on a regular
basis.
“At the markets, we have our
systems in place. Markets open at 6:00 am and are closed at 2: 00 pm and we try
to make sure that they are closed at the time specified … so that the place can
be sanitised,” he added.
He noted that vendors are
encouraged to use the hand washing units “so that we can make sure that we are
all protected.”
