"We have made every effort and zeal to give it this necessary boost for development, but with sufficient and balanced care for the environment and natural resources. We have prepared a list of conditions for the international call to present expressions of interest for the concession and operation of a private hotel and casino on the oceanic coast of Rocha. Next Wednesday, September 23, through the websites of both the Ministry of Tourism and the Presidency of the Republic, we will be officially publishing the call, with a period of 60 days for the presentation of initiatives.”
The mayor of Rocha, Flavia Coelho added: “In April we announced that we were going to form a work team, at the level of the Ministry of Tourism, to put professionals to work in the preparation and in the preparation of a specification for the call of interest to international expression, to specify a much-desired work in the department of Rocha , as is that dream of so many years with the execution of a five-star hotel with a casino, which will give the definitive impulse and development to one of the most magnificent and wonderful places that the Uruguayan coast has.”
