Greene Tells St. Paul’s Constituents to ‘Judge Me by the Work’ as He Seeks Re-Election

E. P. Chet Greene used a meet-and-greet with constituents to highlight his record over the past three years while outlining plans for healthcare, infrastructure, youth development and business support ahead of the general election.

Greene told residents the meeting was intended to both report on progress and strengthen engagement with the community.

“It’s about me not only reporting to you on my stewardship… over the last three years… but also to see the continued bonding,” he said.

Among the key areas highlighted was healthcare, with Greene confirming that an expanded clinic is underway and additional services are planned.

“We have an expanding new clinic that comes to us,” he said, adding that future development will include “an eye-care clinic” and a dental facility to improve access to services within the constituency.

On infrastructure, Greene defended ongoing roadworks and said improvements are part of a planned national programme rather than a last-minute push.

“We are not rushing to finish roads… we are starting roads on a planned approach,” he said, pointing to ongoing work across the constituency, including major routes.

Youth development and technology also featured prominently, with Greene outlining initiatives aimed at preparing young people for the digital economy.

“This year, 2026… is a year of youth… a year of youth in education… in promotion of their skills,” he said, adding that new Wi-Fi zones and training programmes will support that effort.

He encouraged greater use of technology for entrepreneurship, telling residents, “Everyone with a phone in their hands can use their phone to make money… to do their business.”

Greene also addressed economic concerns raised by residents, pointing to government-backed financing aimed at supporting small businesses.

“There is a fund… where persons can apply for loans up to $250,000,” he said, noting that the initiative is designed to fill gaps left by commercial lending institutions.

Community members used the meeting to raise issues including road safety, particularly in areas such as Falmouth, and the impact of seasonal fluctuations on local businesses.

In response, Greene stressed the importance of shared responsibility in addressing community challenges.

“It’s not government… it’s us,” he said, urging residents to play a more active role in maintaining and improving their surroundings.

He also made a direct appeal for support ahead of the election, pointing to his track record in office.

“When elections come, judge me and the work I do,” Greene said.

Greene said further consultations will take place after the election to refine and implement community priorities, with continued focus on development, service delivery and economic opportunity in St. Paul’s.
