The Belleville Intelligencer yesterday published an article with quotes from Glenn Squires, chief executive

officer for Pacrim Hospitality, discussing his company's plans to erect a hotel and water park very close to the proposed New Quinte Exhibition and Raceway.

Squires said that Pacrim is hoping to open the facility by the summer of 2011. The hotel is said to hold 125 -150 rooms, while the indoor water park is expected to be a in the vicinity of 25,000 to 35,000 square-feet. Baymount Inc. announced earlier this week it has entered into a “memorandum of understanding” with Pacrim for the development of a hotel and water park on the company’s excess lands to the north of Bell Boulevard.
