The horrendous noise that emanated from the Queen's Park Oval (at the western end) was again a noise abomination. Will any attention be given by these mercenaries to the residents and nursing home et al? This was the Michael Bolton concert hosted by another mercenary or mercenaries. Why are these events not held in enclosed areas with the sound level controlled, like the Centre of Excellence or NAPA? Why give the Queen's Park Cricket Club (QPCC) more funds?
The mayor of Port-of-Spain and/or the police administration need to also have traffic wardens on the streets as there were traffic violations in abundance. Indiscriminate people parked on the sidewalk. Isn't it an offence to block the public footpath according to the Summary Offences Act? To add insult to injury, the booming noise that emanated from the Oval together with the passing vehicles were enough to send residents into cardiac arrest. Where was the Environmental Management Authority?The QPCC has advised that promoters are told that the noise level must be controlled at all times. However, since this cannot be done, why does the QPCC continue to have events at the Oval? One understands the income gained from these events. Each time there is an event and one complains, an excuse is given, yet the same nonsense continues.
Does anyone have any connection to the people at the QPCC who give permission for these events? I am simply asking for telephone numbers of the QPCC personnel who authorise these events, so that I can call them during these concerts to let them hear the abominable noise.The mayor is trying his best, but he is overlooking the QPCC. Again, a reminder: this is the 21st century. However, I thank the mayor that King George V has been saved.But it is now time to save the neighbours/residents/nursing home from the QPCC. Or is this establishment grander than the mayor's office and has more colonial power?The next event scheduled for the Oval is a mystery. I will probably just hear the preparations the night before, which is what occurred on the Friday night prior to the above.
The EMA is trying its best but the Oval committee is messing up big time.I wonder whether Michael Bolton is aware of the discomfort he caused. Maybe he believes it is a jungle out there, that lights and stage were set up in an open field with no residents around. Maybe he should be Facebooked and advised, if that is politically correct.To all the mercenaries, please do not be blinded by the dollar sign. Oh, I just remembered, I am living in the 21st century. What an oversight on my part.
