Government had nothing to do with facilitating talks between developers Carl Bazarian and Nathan Landow over the former Club Med property, insisted Premier Craig Cannonier.Responding to questions raised during Friday’s motion to adjourn by Shadow Minister David Burt, the Premier said: “This Government has nothing to do with the two of them — Bazarian and Landow — coming together.”As reported in this newspaper on July 19, Mr Bazarian is hoping to secure investments for the new Park Hyatt Resort project from Nathan Landow — the Maryland developer who flew three cabinet Ministers in his private jet to a Washington DC meeting in what became known as “jetgate”.Mr Landow confirmed to The Royal Gazette that a joint venture was being explored but said that no decision had been made.And he revealed that both he and Mr Bazarian had submitted plans on the project.Mr Burt referred to the development as “quite shocking”.And he recalled that Mr Cannonier had insisted that no negotiations had taken place at the Washington DC meeting, and that Government had promised in its Throne Speech in February to repeal the Park Hyatt Resort Act and seek a new developer.“Now we hear instead of a repeal, that not only is the old developer still in the picture but the Premier, the Attorney General and the Minister of Tourism’s travel agent is also in the picture as well,” Mr Burt said.This is shocking.”Mr Cannonier rose on a point of order to reject what he described as Mr Burt’s “insinuation”.“Mr Bazarian has the right if he wishes to, to come back and say, ‘I would like to redevelop that property’. It has nothing to do with us,” he added.But Mr Burt went on to quote this newspaper’s report in which Mr Landow said his group had presented a plan to the Government.“The Member is attempting to mislead folks. The timing of this is completely way off target to what he is insinuating.”In February, Government confirmed that it had no plans to invite Mr Bazarian back to the island to thrash out a new agreement.Instead, Government said it would get Parliament to repeal the Act which gave the developer a 262-year lease on the site, making the termination finalBut in mid March, E Michael Jones, a representative for Mr Bazarian, said that the developer was still in talks with officials — and was hoping to meet with Government.On March 20, Premier Cannonier, Tourism Minister Shawn Crockwell and Attorney General Mark Pettingill were flown to a five hour Washington DC meeting with Mr Landow and his associates in Mr Landow’s private jet, staying two nights at Mr Landow’s expense. The trip sparked intense criticism from the Opposition Party which said it violated the Ministerial Code of Conduct.Government defended itself, saying the meeting was for informational purposes only, and no negotiations had taken place.
