OVERVIEW OF THE GREATER BERNARD LODGE
PHASE IV DIVESTMENT
The Greater Bernard Lodge (GBL)
project seeks to create the ideal
municipality where there exists for
citizens, a high standard of living,
sound environmental management
and affordable quality housing which
all create a sustainable environment.
The Government of Jamaica (GoJ),
through the SCJH, intends to sell
discrete Mixed Use, Light Industry
and Residential development blocks
via a competitive tender process.
While some of the assets are
registered in the names of several
GoJ entities, including but not limited
to the Minister of Housing, Urban
Development Corporation (UDC), and
the Commissioner of Lands, SCJH is
the beneûcial owner of all the assets.
The GBL Master Plan spans a total
of 5,397.02 acres and will seek to
create a sustainable integrated
township that is vibrant and resilient
and addresses challenges associated
with affordable housing, transportation,
and access to jobs and services. The
development will not only address
housing but also improve several areas
of infrastructure, including the provision
of potable water, sewerage, waste
management, drainage, road
rehabilitation in Greater Portmore,
aquifer protection, and regularization
of agricultural lots.
The privatization process will be
implemented in four (4) phases.
Phases l, ll, lll have been completed.
Phase lV will consist of Residential
Townhouse blocks.
