FLOOD MITIGATION IN VISTA DEL MAR

Vista Del Mar, on the outskirts of Ladyville in Belize Rural Central is one of the communities that has been experiencing flooding and drainage problems over the past couple years. It is a matter that will require some studying and engineering of a long-term solution. But for now, the National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) has teamed up with Area Representative Beverly Williams to quickly address the immediate need for the existing drains to be cleared, thereby facilitating the movement of water and mitigating the situation. Back in August of 2016, Vista Del Mar was one of the communities that experienced the most flooding caused by Hurricane Earl.
