orient bay : new project
Anonymous (not verified) | Tue, 2008-02-26 20:04
Wont stop a new buidling project in Orient Bay.
Already the land behind the 'lolos' and Pedros has been turned into an unofficial rubbish tip, charming for the most popular tourist spot on the island, but done in readiness to make a landfil for yet another pointless development.
The existing 'Village', charming though it is, has dozens of unrentable properties due their proximity to the dust and noise of the beach road that runs in front, so what possible need for another one?
There is also the small matter of just how far back this will go from the beach - there are mangroves with nesting egrets, herons, ducks etc. just behind. Isnt this supposed to be Reserve Naturelle?
Is it all being made ready for the backhoes ?
Maybe the Minister of Tourism, Romeo Fleming, will step in, or the new President of the Commune, LC Fleming?
But as the land (read rubbish dump) to be sold and developed is 'Fleming land', maybe they wont.
