New 10-storey development on Seven Mile not welcome

Will the Central Planning Authority members decide to approve Brian Butler’s plan for the 10-storey development of Aqua Bay on Seven Mile Beach? 

If the Aqua Bay high-rise tower of 38 apartments is okayed, the existing neighbourhood of Seven Mile Beach’s low-rise homes will change. Today there are issues of the increasing cost of utilities in the Cayman Islands. A 10-storey high-rise apartment building will strain electricity and water use.

At present, there are dozens of objections to Butler Development’s new Aqua Bay complex. If Butler’s plan is passed by the CPA, there will be many new plans for high-rise tower developments on all three of the Cayman Islands.
