Tour Operators Association Supports New Fuel Depot in Caye Caulker

On Tuesday, two Caye Caulker residents wrote to the police to voice their objections to a proposed fuel depot in their area. However, today, a group of tour operators on the island took the opposite stance. The Caye Caulker Tour Operators Association publicly supported the project, led by Petrol Alliance Group Holding Company Limited. The association, which includes several tour companies on the island, issued a brief “No-objection letter.” In it, they stated, “we understand that the company plans to build a fuel station on parcel 957, Block 12, in the Caye Caulker Registration Section, on the northern side of the village. We have no objections to the proposed construction, as it will benefit all residents in the area”.
