VIWMA INVITES COMMUNITY TO TERRITORY-WIDE TOWN HALL MEETINGS

 

(U.S. Virgin Islands) – The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority (VIWMA) will host town hall meetings across the territory on Wednesday, January 14, 2026, on St. Thomas/St. John at the Public Services Commission Office in Barbel Plaza. On Thursday, January 15, 2026, the meeting will take place on St. Croix at the Alfredo Andrews Elementary School; both meetings will be held from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

 

These meetings will provide an opportunity for open dialogue on several important topics, including the territory-wide construction of Convenience Centers, the transition to standardized trash carts, wastewater and solid waste fees, and efforts to address illegal dumping, among other critical waste management initiatives.

 

Community input is essential as VIWMA works toward creating a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable Virgin Islands. Residents are encouraged to attend, ask questions, share concerns, and offer feedback that will help guide future planning and decision-making.

 

VIWMA looks forward to collaborating with the community to develop effective, long-term solutions that benefit everyone and appreciates the public’s continued participation and support.
