Morning Breeze Project 15 meters from the sea in defiance of all laws, resolutions concerning construction

20 years were violated regulations, laws and building solutions on Cabarete harming the environment and the sustainability of this tourist resort. It was the result of builders and project owners seeking to maximize profits at the cost of public interest and political officials willing to give or sell permission. One of the latest projects that was completed in Cabarete, is the project Morning Breeze. This project is completely out of all regulations and disfigures the beach of Cabarete .. As the authorities stopped building this project? Morning Breeze Beside this the Palace Beach Hotel which is one of the worst examples of violations of rules on the beach of Cabarete. Morning Breeze followed suit.

These buildings are 15 meters from the sea in violation of the law of 60 meters. The 60 meters are public and allow conservation of the beach for use by the public. Decree 847-09 of the Land Management Plan regulates Cabarete Cabarete different areas and allows for that area 3 floors set back 60 meters from the high tide. That means that this project did not have any possibility of getting a building permit. There are several options to explain this construction. Maybe the present flat wrong builder (construction outside the 60 meters) to the various authorities and that no authorities came to control the work. Or you might suspect it was another case of endemic corruption in the tourism sector.
sans souci 002_pSeg?n information received, now the owner of the project is asking approval MITUR completed project. The owner of the project is in a difficult situation because if you do not approve this draft law stipulates that no securities will be issued to buyers of condominium apartments. And Morning Breeze is not the only project in Cabarete where people bought apartments in projects without permits, hoping that the owner would give them their titles below. Morning Breeze's owner also owns the Sans Souci, a hotel in the same section of the beach of Cabarete which suffered serious damage a few years ago when the hotel patio and wall collapse at sea by beach erosion and strong holas . But its new building built so close to the sea that strong waves crash against it.

Due to its breeze Cabarete is famous for its water sports like kitesurfing and windsurfing. But the loss of the beach breeze at East Bay since it was built Velero Beach Resort in Punta and now Morning Breeze and Palace Beach Hotel has nearly eliminated these sports in the area. Builders do not want to admit that the height and distance of a building affect the beach breeze at the beach, contrary to all evidence and logic. But at least he was recognized in the Land Use Plan, the presidential decree and regulations MITUR. Cabarete But investors have been built in violation of the rules of the plan and continue to pressure the President Danilo special decrees legitimizing couple buildings against the plan and against the sustainable development of Cabarete.

A serving make a regulation if the builders are still using their political influence to modify in your favor and not in favor of a positive development in Cabarete? We hope that the President of the Republic, Danilo Medina and Minister of Tourism, Francisco Javier Garcia not stop manipulating and preserving the Decree 847-09 and tourism resolution 09-2012, which was the result of work 3 years of MITUR and consensus with the community of Cabarete.
