GREAT BAY, Sint Maarten (DCOMM) – On Thursday, March 5, 2015, representatives of the Commercial Development Department of Royal Caribbean Cruises visited with the Council of Ministers (COM) in order to give a presentation regarding the master plan of the project known as ‘Sint Maarten Quarter’.
The informative meeting was intended to brief the Council of Ministers on the project developments since the 2008 signed agreements between the Government, the St. Maarten Harbour Holding Company N.V. and the Royal Caribbean Cruises concerning the development of a plot of land adjacent to the port.
The plans include an urbanized waterfront environment with a hotel, food & beverage establishments, retail outlets and attractions including a salt water lagoon.
The Council of Ministers is awaiting the outcome of the advice from the different departments before the master plan can be handled within the meeting of the Council of Ministers for decision making.
The approval of the master plan itself concerns the approval of the conceptual plans. Detailed plans are to follow depending on the Council of Ministers’ decision.
