According to the Amigoe, the Bonairean gov appealed the earlier decision of annulling the building permit. The appeal was dismissed & it appears that now the local Bonaire government has the job of dismantling the already started buildling.

Ahh - so the building was already started - well maybe they can dismantle it and ship it to the other side of the island to join the never ending (hasn't been worked on in years) hotel project near Esmeralda.

I really wish someone would tear that eyesore down by Esmeralda. How long has it been there, 15 years?

These are the folks that stole beach sand for road work, permitted an additional floor to be constructed on Belmar and continue to approve large projects without the benefit of an infrastructure to support the load. I suspect it will be some time before they clean up the mess they made at the mangrove site and who knows what they've got going in the back room.

If they provide an Environmental Impact study to prove the project is "safe" the permit could possibly be renewed but I don't think that will occur. They are on protected wetlands right now and that is a "no no".
