Government Announces Pilot Project Areas for Street Addressing

Three local communities have been selected as pilot projects for the Virgin Islands Street Addressing Initiative. The addressing methodology will be tested in Mon Bijou on St. Croix, downtown Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas and Cruz Bay on St. John, according to a press release issued Friday by the Office of the Lieutenant Governor.
A series of community meetings will be held during the week of Jan. 28 to discuss the pilot projects and what residents can expect to occur as the territory begins the first phases of transitioning towards a standardized addressing system. The project team will meet with the pilot communities on:
Wednesday, Jan. 30: St. John, St. Ursula’s Multipurpose Center, 3:30-5 p.m.
Wednesday, Jan. 30: St. Thomas, Charlotte Amalie High School, 7–9 p.m.
Thursday, Jan. 31: St. Croix, John H. Woodson School, 7-8:30 p.m.
Residents of the pilot project communities, community leaders and the general public are invited to attend the scheduled meetings.
For more information on the Street Addressing Initiative or community meetings, contact Chris George, GIS coordinator/SAI project manager, at 776-8505, ext. 4321 or e-mail vistreets@lgo-vi.gov.
