Recession stalls development projects

Addressing the last session of a full council here this week, the Chairman of the Central District Council (CDC) Lesego Raditanka said it has not been possible to implement all development projects and programmes for the plan period owing to the global recession and certain unforeseen constraints.

Deferred projects include the construction of a school for the disabled in Palapye; an abattoir, a park and a fire station in Serowe; a warehouse in Letlhakane; and internal roads, a drainage system and a new bus rank in Mahalapye.
