It seems from the interview with the Chief Town Planner this evening Cummins called Bynoe a liar.
[…] Paul Bynoe (B’s Recycling) Story […]
Bynoe’s problems could have been solved if he had made a donation to the DLP’s election effort.
Who Bynoe think he is? He has to pay the bribes like everyone else to get by. Nobody is concerned that his project is good for Barbados.

That is the reason for the holdup. No palm greasing, no easy passing. Especially when the black mout 5&10 % conman has a say in the matter.
Thanks to Andrew B for making it a public issue. B’s Recycling should soon see its venture approved by those crooks and scumbags posing as administrators of the country’s affairs. Loads of talk in Samoa no action in Bim!
If that memo represents the quality of communication among public sector officials may God help poor Barbados.
Whoever wrote that piece of crap needs to be sent for training in the use of Crystal English by Public Sector workers.
speaking about efficiency and in the public interest ! right on the ball Director , now just watch how the BLP yardfowls try to make pig belly outta barnyard fowl
ac who is more of a yard fowl than you. God help us!!!!!
Can anyone focus on the topic sometimes and ignore predictable comments?
It is interesting to observe how CP Cummins has been flushed out to make a comment.
Wonder if Campus Trends should have been made to jump through the same hoops … in fact all the flipping stores in town … Cummins is as big an ass as there is available in the public service
that is why there was a trendz, a codrington /brittons hill disater , no rules ,no regulations, small minded selfish a.ss holes wanting to get everything they way, every body wants to be in charge until when the sh..it hits the fan, then the question is why govt did not do their job, Getting issues of relevancy and those that will affect the long term interest and security of society should be crucial and of importance ,and not what is best for one person .The asses are those who still want to support mediocrity and “shotgun political policies.
Under General Comments section 2 of the letter to Mr. Bynoe mention is made in figure 3 to involve input from all businesses in the area. BU understands there are 6 businesses 4 which exist on paper.
Did the Williams group have to jump through the same hoops as Paul Bynoe for their plant in St Thomas? Just asking!
The truth is that the Bynoe’s have come up against an opposing force, a force much stronger and wealthier than them. In Barbados the most valuable thing is not a ‘project’ but rather an ‘exclusivity/monoply’.
Pick sense.
The purpose of parliament, government and the civil service is to legislate, regulate and facilitate. Cummings knows how to frustrate until he gets his payout. And the minister in charge of planning who is supposed to be setting him straight is his unwavering supporter. Paul Bynoe’s saga has been played out hundreds of times during the rule of CTP Cummings and numerous investors have been chased from these shores, the public just doesn’t hear about it. Bushy Park was developed and built without planning permission by people who ‘know how to get things done’. He is a megalomaniac just like COP Dottin but with no PSC to reel him in. Who guards the guards?
The Town Planner needs to do his research and respond with information and not speak ofthe cuff.
CORRUPTION REIGNS……. did I mention that I’m expecting a new supply of AK47’s next month, FREE to the right buyers………
The above sounds radical, but, but, but just possibly what Barbados needs is a Fidel Castro and a Che Guevara
Has the environment impact study been completed as promised by Cahill waste to energy people?

Seems that Bynoe has upstaged the government and that cannot be tolerated by the government. How dare he look at a Waste to energy plant?
Didn’t Sinckler et al give the green light for Bynoe to buy his 7 million piece of equipment? Is it not a reasonable conclusion for the Bynoes to make that the government was onboard? Is Bynoe’s business a forex generating concern? Is it a Black owned business? If this was a Mark Maloney or Bjerham issue, SOLVED!

Barbados in the 21st century is something to behold and be truly ashamed of in almost every respect.
David is it that there is concern that Barbados may not be able to provide enough waste for 2 plants?
@Hants
BU is going with the Bynoes, we must support homegrown FIRST! Both political parties have messed this man up.

Are the TPD concerns warranted?
Does the CTP make planning decisions?
The idea to ask Bynoe to consult with businesses whether 4 or 6,existing or non-existent is folly. Why not just write the businesses and ask for their position–object,support or no response?
Also note in the letter there is an acknowledgement that it was a tardy response. Why delay a project of such importance based on a non critical a lazy bureaucrat.

Oh boy, the nastiness with which business and politics is practiced in Barbados. We need a new vision that gives renewed confidence. How far the mighty has fallen, a dale about Barbadso,past and present.
I bare shite they doing to the Bynoe fella. Mark Malonely and Bjerkhamn does flout the laws of the land and don’t get these hassles. If he paid off a minister or someone from Town Planning he would not have these problems.
Mark did not address the issues in the letter

“David is it that there is concern that Barbados may not be able to provide enough waste for 2 plants?”
Should B’s Recycling get going and become a viable project it could have serious implications for the Cahill WTE (imaginary or otherwise).
Would the economics regarding the reliable supply of garbage for burning still stack up with B’s just around the corner?
It might just be necessary to import garbage for burning. Where would the imported garbage come from? Trinidad or Florida via Haiti?
@Miller….

Try China. They are now taking a lot of our “garbage”. Any and all of our old iron, copper of lead ………and aluminium. Fair exchange……….

Correct … One man one vote favours big White business …
Ahhh boy, Bim sweet for the fortunate few. A crying shame.
Isnt it funny Paul Bynoe has to run his operation on his own with not a cent in consolidation tax (aka the garbage tax) from the Govt but is finding all hell to continue to the next level BUT we have another company that we have to pay money to and they havent received a thimble of garbage as yet.
You know that a Minister getting a cutback from the next operation to come. The DLP has become so corupt and lying before our very eyes. What a SHAME!
How many observed when Future Trust advocate Kammie Holder wanted to raise the issue of the Bynoes and their challenge to the Town Planner moderator Corey Layne quickly shifted the conversation? We will wait to see if Town Planner Cummins delivered next week as he promised.
David
It does matter what the CTP does or does not do, when ‘something’ in Barbados is ‘not for you’ (political speak) then there is no way to swim upstream as it will be waterfall and waterfall after waterfall until you tire and eventually give up.
In raw political language the Bynoes appear to be being ‘frozen out’ and it talks along time for the ‘boys’ to bring back from ‘Siberia’ once that is the case.
@Postage Paid
Why did Paul buy the 7 million pieace of equipment if he was not given some assurance from an authority? Bear in mind he operated without TP under the BLP government as well. Everything must be political in Barbados.

Paul Bynoe must understand if the rumor is true some will share a cut of $6M in the Waste To Energy plant. Unfortunately no one gets anything from the Bynoes Politics is big money in Barbados
@David,I heard how Corey quickly changed the topic when the guy from the future centre trust was on Brasstacks. It amazing how Cupid can talk about penis size on his love show but the issues that affect people are not allowed to be discussed.
@Wesly
There is a lot of politics and interest to be protected. It is clear Corey was given a directive last week to try to keep the program positive. What these guys don’t realize is that in a democracy people criticize because they want better because they love what they have, it should not be always construed as negative. Imagine it the same we we discipline our children.

Alternative energy sector budding
10/7/2014
THERE has been an aggressive push towards renewable energy in Barbados so far this year, with major companies leading the way by implementing photovoltaic systems and generally making attempts to go green to save money and protect the environment.
Major companies in Barbados such as BICO and Red Advertising have joined those looking to save electricity cost and finding greener ways to do business.
Ralph “Bizzy” Williams, Founder and Chairman of Williams Industries Inc. has widely discussed the importance of Barbados going towards alternative forms of energy as he has led many discussions on projects such as wind farms, waste to energy plant, etc. A few months ago at ‘Red goes Green’ he commended individuals and companies for realising the benefits of PV technology both from an environmental and financial stand point.
It has been said in many forums that there has been an explosion in renewable energy in Barbados. A few months ago Adrian Carter, 2014 De La Rue Scholar and Former Central Banker stated, “the development of the renewable energy market and photovoltaic energy requires regulation but also solutions to deal with this growing market and how it will impact the country. The growth in photovoltaic penetration is phenomenal, we expect this area of the market to continue to grow, but this growth will also bring challenges to the market, that has to be addressed using unique methods because of the uniqueness of our market.”
The step towards photovoltaic technology is expected to improve business. A renewable Energy system has been installed at BICO at a cost of around $900,000 which is intended to have pay back in three years, thus reducing demand of fossil fuels and improving profitability. Speaking recently as the new system was unveiled to local media and industry associates, BICO’s Executive Chairman, Edwin Thirlwell said “The PV system installed and commissioned by Emera Caribbean Renewable is expected to shave thousands of dollars per annum off BICO’s energy bills, thereby having a significant impact on the company’s operating costs especially in the Harbour Coldstore Division.”
Managing Director of Red Advertising & Marketing Limited, Jevan Jutagir echoed similar sentiments as they too have commissioned an energy saving photo voltaic system through Williams Solar, “going green just makes financial sense for the company and generally for the Barbadian economy, and renewable is where Barbados needs to go. This system is probably over 100 thousand dollars, and in terms of savings our light bill was probably over 2000 a month, so the savings will quickly add up. In five years we would pay off for our system and the rate of return on investment (ROI) is approximately 16 per cent.”
Gleeson Roach, Project Manager at Williams Solar indicated, “The interest is relatively high but many people are struck with the upfront cost and that plays a significant role in the decision to go forward with the system, but there is still a high demand for renewable [energy] in Barbados. The volume in terms of the number of queries actually come from residential but commercially there is still major interest.”
This market is definitely opening up for Barbados, but the question of sustainability is still a point of concern as the debate on the cap continues. Some have stated that other industries have been planned in an adhoc manner and that we need a master plan in this budding field. Also, in Barbados there should focus on different forms of alternative energy.
Heiko Stieber, Senior Product Manager of Hybrid Energy Solutions by German firm, SMA Solar Technology AG believes, “There should be a master plan to decide how much renewable energy to integrate from year to year [as it] is important for countries moving in this direction. Germany now produces 20 per cent of electricity from alternative energy. We have to rely on a mixture of alot of renewable energy sources, it is not just wind or solar, it is also thermal energy using storages may also be an idea. It has to be a mixture of everything to stabilise the system, you can’t just rely on one source.”
“Some of the suggestions that I have for the Barbados master plan is that you have a lot of sunshine but there is also availability of wind, but this would not be the only two sources. I would also look at conventional sources but efficient systems, also there may be a chance for thermal power if you have the availability here. Generally, what I am suggesting is the mixture of different production systems.” (NB)
While 90% of what happens in Barbados appears to be “negative” we should not lose sight of the 10% that is positive.
Seems the Nissan Leaf is the Electric car making its presence in Barbados.

If I could I would……?
Install an off grid solar power electricity system and buy a Nissan Leaf.
