On Tuesday, August 23, 2022, the Kingston and St. Andrew Municipal Corporation (KSAMC) held a groundbreaking ceremony for the rehabilitation of Maverley Park in North West St. Andrew, to transform what has been a dust bowl into a recreational park and green area for the residents of Maverley and surrounding communities.

Transforming spaces adds to the social and economic development of communities. This KSAMC transformational project is geared towards improving community life and providing employment for residents.

The municipality will be aiming to plant some 100+ trees inside Maverley Park, as part of this project. More details to include plans for rainwater harvesting and other environmentally friendly measures will be shared by the KSAMC momentarily.

Special thanks to the Most Hon. Andrew Holness, ON,PC, MP Prime Minister; Hon. Desmond A. McKenzie, CD,MP,JP, Minister of Local Government & Rural Development; Hon. Nigel Clarke, DPhil, MP, Minister of Finance and the Public Service & Member of Parliament NW St. Andrew;  all KSAMC Councillors, managers and staff members; all stakeholders within the local government sector, all CBOs, CDCs, businesses and residents in Maverley and surrounding areas for your support and commitment to this project.
