Dear Editor,
I was born in Lucea and attended Rusea's High School. I left Jamaica many years ago, but have been returning often to enjoy the sun and the beaches in Negril and visit with my brother and friend.
Before I left for Canada, Lucea was a clean and beautiful town. Last August I returned to Jamaica with my family and we drove to Negril. While passing through Lucea we noticed how dirty the roads were. There were mounds of garbage blocking the main street by Ronald Young's store.
The Lucea parish council and the mayor should be fired for allowing things to reach this state. I have never seen so much garbage blocking the main street. It is a shame. People of Lucea, fire your councillors. I am ashamed to tell visitors to Jamaica that I am from a place looking like this.
