The Board of the Belair Community Council is organizing a pre-hurricane cleanup this Saturday in the Belair district.
The Belair district entails Belair, Little Bay Harmony homes, Spanish Fort Hill and homes located in the Belair area on Welgelegen road.
As the month of June is the start of the hurricane season, weather experts are predicting a very active year for storm formation coupled with the unusual weather patterns associated with the hot summer days we are currently experiencing, Belair residents have decided to prepare their neighborhood for the coming months of hurricane season.
The neighborhood cleanup will take place on Saturday June 26th. from 7am-10am.
The Belair Community Council is asking all residents to trim their over hanging tree branches that can fall and hinder traffic on the narrow roads, put out all old household debris and construction debris that is no longer wanted.
Construction materials that are still being used should be secured in the event of a approaching storm.
The Board is also asking residents to cut grass or over grown bush on the shoulders of the road in front of their property to help beautify the area.
Belair Community Council is grateful to Clean Sint Maarten N.V. that will place a second bin to collect all the debris collected.
Residents can gather at 7am at the garbage collection spot and collect trash bags and gloves courtesy of Sint Maarten PRIDE foundation and Meadowlands NV.
