Councillor Jack Sukhija has called for an immediate stay on the tender process for the Santa Monica Jetty, raising concerns over the possible involvement of casino-linked interests.
Sukhija has demanded that the tender be scrapped, alleging that the process could result in a public asset being handed over to private entities for a period of 40 years.
He has also expressed concern that the tender could potentially facilitate access to the jetty for interests associated with the casino sector.
Seeking immediate intervention, Sukhija has urged the authorities to halt the tender process and review the proposal before proceeding further. He maintained that the long-term use of a public asset by private entities requires careful scrutiny and transparency.
The councillor’s demands come amid concerns over the future use and management of the Santa Monica Jetty and the implications of the proposed tender.
