LEGISLATIVE RECORD
CONTINUED. from Friday

A#
On April Is, 1860, utilizing the provisions Of the
aforesaid resolution a presentation Of the plans for the
proposed hotel, guest cottages and golf course, were pre-.
sented to the Legislature for their approval.
This presentation was a result Of a study covering a
period OF approximately two years during which time
approximately two years during which time water consul
tants, architects and engineers visited all of the American
Virgin Islands in an effort to find a site for the conStruc-
ton OF a hotel of approximately 200 rooms, which site
would have sufficient water supply to support a project Of
this size without infringing on the water supply necessary
Tor the well being Of the mass population Of the Islands.
AS a result Of this study there.appeared to be only one
site within the entire Virgin Islands, including St. Tho
mas and st. John, that had the necessary potable" water
supply to meet the requirements OF such a project. This
site is located on Estate William and is approximately one
and one-half miles north Of Frederiksted on the West end
of the Island Of ST. Croix.
An option was obtained on this property for SO acres
Of land to be used as the hotel site, which includes both
water and beach rights for a period of 81 years with the
right to negotiate for an additional period. Such option
also includes an additional l50 acres Tor the construction
Of an 18-hole championship golf course and guest cottage
sites should such development prove feasible within two
years after the main hotel has been in operation.
The hotel proper will be able to accommodate both
the vacationing public and local activities, since facilities
have been provided for both. The main building will con-
tain 1856 deluxe rooms arranged Tor the complete privacy
of each guest room and offering a private terrace for each
room overlooking the Caribbean Sea. Elasticity Of plan
ming permits ten percent Of the total number OF rooms to
operate as suites IN addition TO winch there Will pc SIX per-,
manent luxury suites. For guests preferring complete pri-
vacy and separation from the centralized activities Of
hotel life, several duplex cottages have been provided on
the mountain side above the hotel commanding an impress
sive view of the sea.
The central building of the hotel houses Offices,
lounges areas, two dining rooms, bar, kitchen and shops on
its upper level and a convention room, snack bar, locker
rooms, storage and delivery areas on the lower level In
addition to the fine sea bathing afforded, a large swim
ming pool has been provided. Space beneath the wings Of
the building will be used for cisterns with a total storage
capacity Of IA million gallons of water.
The plans for the construction Of the hotel were pre-
pared by the architectural firm OF Siam and Hilleary,
Rockville, Maryland, in collaboration with internationally
known Emanuel Gran, Staff Architect for the Hilton In
ternational Hotels.

Among the Bills, or proposals under consideration of

there is one legalzing Cock-Fighting as a sport in the Vir-
gin Islands.
AS a citizen living in the area where the major acti-
vity of this sport in centered, and after gone into several
thousand dollars in the construction of a home for myself
and family, this pleasure for some, have not only become
a nuisance but it has it some degree impaired the health
of my family which to me is a very serious matter.
am not against the perpetuation Of this sport in the
Island, nor do | doubt that it can be developed into a
worthwhile revenue raising enterprise, whatever the le-
giSlature in its wisdom consider beneficial, I also request
in the most polite terms, that you consider its discontinue
ance in such close proximity Of the family dwelling.
I suggest therefore the consideration Of a proviso, or
