Help SAVE Little Harbour, Abaco, Bahamas
Help us SAVE the beautiful Little Harbour, in Abaco. Join the Responsible Development for Abaco (RDA) team and #savethebays as we demand that the Government respects the LOCALS! On May 23rd, 2016 the RDA, was granted leave “to issue a motion seeking Judicial Review” of the Abaco Club’s proposed development of this bay. RDA initiated the proceedings on the grounds that both developer (the Abaco Club) and the Government have failed to engage in “adequate consultation” with residents and affected parties in Little Harbour.
ISSUES: Apart from the 44-slip private dock, the Abaco Club’s planned supporting facilities include a supplies shop, private restaurant and 6,000 square foot covered parking lot.
RDA fears that if the project goes ahead it will completely change the environment and character of Little Harbour, a 50-home community that runs almost entirely off solar power.
QC Fred Smith said "the action was based on what he described as the Government’s consistent failure to properly consult local residents, and others, who will be most affected by development and infrastructure projects approved from afar in Nassau."
