The old Nausori market

The Nausori Town Council is embarking on a Public Private Partnership deal to develop the old market area.

Acting Chief Executive Deo Narayan, made the revelation during the Council’s submission to the Public Accounts Committee.

Narayan says all the paperwork has been completed and they are waiting for the final approval from the Local Government Ministry.

“The council is interested to have a Public Private Partnership arrangement to develop the site and the Ministry of Local Government has been dispatched with relevant papers last week for a decision to be made on an earlier PPP arrangement as agreed.”

Narayan confirms the Council has also acquired the civic lease of the car park area adjacent to the old market.

Narayan says they will continue to do whatever it takes to develop the state of Nausori town.
