Islander Hill, Ballast Ground and the Lagoon

Keeping an Eye on C&N Port Louis Marina 2015 & 2016

April 8, 2017

The Lagoon, a significant national asset, is under the control of the Company. The Lagoon seabed is mortgaged to the Bank of Nova Scotia to secure the Company’s loan of US$ 25 million in 2009.   According to the information in their reports there is a non-cancellable lease for 99 years with an option to renew for another 99 years.  Also, lease rental payment is based only on the area brought into use.  So that means the Company is “sitting on the people’s property” while our fishermen and our other traditional users are deprived of a “safe haven “  should there be weather events and the yachties anchor on our reefs off  Falise and Mt.

Camper and Nicholson Port Louis Marina vs. We the People

September 10, 2012

Citizens in Defence of Grenada’s Lands and Heritage is not surprised that Camper and Nicholson is challenging the conditions under which it was granted permission for temporary reclamation.   It maintains its plans for construction on the Lagoon Park.    But to be brazen enough to suggest that the Government of Grenada should reimburse the company for the installation of   its sewer system and waste collection services is adding insult to injury.
