In the case of the Scotts Head project, it is almost concluded, and only the finishing touches are pending, that is to say, it is 99% complete, she said, adding that 21 families will soon be able to move in.

The Eggleston housing project is almost 95% complete, and 16 homes are ready to be handed over to their respective residents.

“Stay tuned as we continue to deliver safe and modern homes for families across Dominica,” Poponne expressed, as quoted by the Associates Times website.

These houses are designed to withstand hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes and all kinds of natural disasters.
