Philipsburg:------ The executive council is expected to issue a letter to the operators of Busby Beach Bar Daniel Jurczenko as early as next week on their decision to incorporate a vending license in his existing restaurant license, so says head of Economic Affairs Patricia Phillips. The department head said that they already sent an advice to the executive council on how to proceed with the matter. Phillips said the two vendors who have indefinite licenses to operate on the beach are also expected to get a letter to notify them of the decision taken.
Asked why it took this long for her department or government to response to the businessman request Phillips said since there was an ongoing court case and government normally does not respond while such is taking place. She further explained that she did not know the case was over and the business man she said did not tell her that when he last visited her.
Asked if the department will go ahead with its plans to confiscate the chairs and umbrellas that are sitting on Dawn Beach and owned by Busby Beach Bar, Phillips said that legal affairs is now looking into the matter to see exactly which ordinance the businessman is breaking. "We have to make sure we outline the ordinance if we are going to seize goods or materials. She said he hoped when the operators receive their written notice next week they would not need to go this far.
Daniel Jurczenko has been renting chairs on Dawn Beach for the past 12 years without a vending license. The businessman in an interview with SMN News said every other restaurant that is on beach side is operating the same way he does which is without a vending license. He said that it has been over five years now he has been having constant problems with the two vendors namely Joan Veerwoord and Jean Paul Rousseau whom he said has filed several complaints at Economic Affairs against him.
