Residents of Mabaruma and nearby communities will soon benefit from improved access to government services, as the new Mabaruma Housing Office is on track to be fully operational by the first quarter of 2026.
Designed to serve all three sub-regions and surrounding villages, a release from the Central Housing and Planning Authority said that the office will provide the full suite of housing services — from application processing and interviews to land-related support — bringing much-needed convenience to residents who previously had to travel long distances.
The release said that the new facility represents a major step in the Government’s commitment to decentralise services and ensure that every citizen, regardless of location, enjoys equal access to opportunities.
During a visit last week, Minister of Housing and Water, Collin Croal, inspected the works and expressed satisfaction with the steady pace of development. He noted that once completed, the office will be equipped with adequate staff and resources tailored to the needs of Region One residents.
The facility is housed within the Mabaruma Compound.
