AGREED, NOT APPROVED.

That is the current status of the proposed Hyatt hotel on Lower Bay Street, St Michael, according to Minister of Finance Chris Sinckler.

“As far as I know, an application went in, the application is being processed, and as such time that process is completed, nobody can say it is all go,” he said yesterday following the launch of the newest Burger King branch in Warrens, St Michael.

Sinckler said that he and Minister of Tourism Richard Sealy had attended the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between Hyatt International and Vision Development Inc. on July 26.

He noted that while the deal had been agreed, it was still undergoing the process to which all building applications were subject. (AD)
