Burt and Roban have clearly signed the final SDO to allow funding to be secured, yet here we are apparently delaying the start of the hotel renovation by another month, or more. Something is not right. Is Gencom holding Burt’s feet to the fire to get more concessions? Why delay the work on the hotel while waiting for the SDO? Burt needs to come out and explain exactly what is going on and the tax and duty allowances.
As to the proposed additional units that needs to be pre sold before construction begins, how can they be priced 5 – 10 years out? This whole scheme makes no sense.
