Google Translation of Interview on the "All Inclusive" program of Musavision on March 23, 2018
PUERTO PLATA.-The hotelier Michel Gay Crosier denounced that the district board of Cabarete approved the privatization of 300 square meters of beach in the "El Canal" sector in favor of the company Ocean Club Cabarete Sosua, which he described as a dangerous decision for the future of this tourist destination.
Application from the company Ocean Club Cabarete Sosua
This company has requested 300 square meters of beach for the exclusive use of the guests of the Ocean Club de Sosúa hotel, which lost its beach; petition that was immediately approved by the district board of Cabarete and we have no doubt that it could be approved by the chapter house of Sosua. It is being said that Mr. Tito Sierra, who has his daughter as president of the chapter house of Sosua, is also pushing that privatization of the beach with some of the councilors of Sosua.
"The three members of Cabarete approved a resolution authorizing the privatization of Cabarete beach in favor of the hotel applicant, creating a precedent that opens the door for anyone who wants a piece of beach to request it," he complained. How many hotels or businesses do not have a beach in Cabarete and Sosua?
Beach "el Canal" where the district board of Cabarete has 300 m2 of beach with the company Ocean Club Cabarete Sosua that does not have any property in that place. The land belongs to the owner of the well-known company in the whole world Ebay.com
He noted that another aggravating factor in this concession is the fact that Ian Schembri does not own the land adjacent to the beach that he was authorized to use exclusively, which belong to the owner of EBAY.COM , which is one of the The world's richest men.
"The portion of the beach that was leased to Schembri hurts a very powerful investor, who when he finds out what has been done in front of his property is going to denounce that in the Dominican Republic there is no legal guarantee," Crosier warned.
Aside from the fact that the district board has also granted that permission to Ian Schembri, the chapter house of Sosua was asked to build a beach club on that same beach, apart from the 300 square meters that the members of the club have illegally rented. district board It would be another violation of law 305-68 to occupy lands of public domain by private. We do not rule out that the chapter house of Sosua approves this request because since years, Cabarete and Sosua have not stopped authorizing the closure of public access and beach privatization. A very strange resolution when that same company has in the same center of Cabarete a beach of at least 100 meters linear and on the beach the Canal has no property.
He explained that the vocal violators of Law 305 are Bartolomé Juma, whom he defined as a man of confidence of Gabriel Mora (Canoa), Rafael Martínez and Juan Cabral, who, allegedly, manipulates at will Jorge Espaillat, president of the PLD in Cabarete He defined as a total aberration the resolution approved by the aforementioned members.
In that same request, it was asked to open the old road of Sosua Cabarete that has been closed for many years despite pressure from the community without any success. To that company, with a simple request, the chapter house of Sosua granted to open that way as heard. That means that there is very private interest to open that road to vehicles but the community can continue to demand access without any success. Note the little consideration that politicians have for the people. With the opening of this road, the chapter house had planned insurance to confirm the 300 meters of beach exclusive for Ocean Club Cabarete approved by Cabarete and the construction of the Beach Club.
"It seems that there is something under the table in this ridiculous rent, because who would lease a space that is public domain ?, said the owner of the hotel La Caoba to be interviewed in the program" All Inclusive ", last Friday.
He announced that the Ministry of Environment sent a commission of officials of the agency, which would have warned the members of Cabarete that if they do not reverse the resolution, they rent illegally the beach portion to Ocean Club. have problems.
He affirmed that this type of situation that threatens legal security will continue to occur as long as there are no stronger authorities and less complacent to promoters who do improper things that affect the tourist destination of Cabarete.
We want to add an anecdote in relation to Tito Sierra. He was the director of the district board of Cabarete in 2004 and was checking the work of heavy teams on the beach in front of the Cabarete barracks, removing the dunes that Cabarete is now missing. When asked why they were removing the dunes what is a violation of Law 64-00, he said that they are going to build a monument for the plane that fell in 1996 in front of the coast of Cabarete with 189 dead. A short time later, the construction of a project of several buildings appears in the same place where they removed the dunes on the beach. This is how our politicians are
