The Talvern Housing Development in Babonneau, launched by the UWP in March 2021, aimed to provide affordable land ownership with 220 lots at just $6 per square foot. This visionary project was halted by the SLP when they took office later that year. When it finally resumed in 2024, the new SLP price was a staggering $14.50 per square foot, more than double the original cost.
A project designed to empower ordinary Saint Lucians has been turned into a profit-driven scheme, making land ownership harder for those who need it most. #UWPDelivered
