In the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa, the Jamaica Public Service Company Ltd (JPS) has made significant strides in restoring electricity across Negril, Westmoreland. However, for Dalton (Penny) Hill, operator of the Lighthouse Inn on West End Road, the progress offers little solace. Hill, one of Negril’s longest-standing businessmen, voiced his frustration during a JPS media briefing, emphasizing that the tourism sector, a major revenue source for JPS, deserves better service. ‘We pay a lot of money to JPS in this town. The West End pays a lot of money. There is no reason why you don’t have a lot of ground men around there doing some work as I speak,’ Hill asserted. He revealed that his monthly electricity bill was $150,000 before the storm and warned that continued delays could push businesses into bankruptcy.
