Re: Uh oh...Jay Peak owner pulls a fast one on EB-5 investor
I would love a Killington/Jay pass... Hint hint.
After several years of the Max Pass add-on this IKON pass does not seem worthwhile.

It will be a huge upset if they don't.Highway Star wrote:I'll bet Vail buys them both. Will lock down the upstate New York and some of the Boston market, along with getting most serious skiers in northern VT on the epic pass.Mister Moose wrote:Sale announced:

It's not clear what selling Jay and Burke "together" means. At the same time? Or as a combined entity?
It's not uncommon to solicit bids both ways and take the highest net.
Vail is the only one that will put the money in up there. That hill needs help - Gondi, Snowmaking etc.

Re: Uh oh...Jay Peak owner pulls a fast one on EB-5 investor
I was thinking that but forgot to mention it. The Montreal market very big for northern VT, I've run into people at Stowe coming down from Canada. Having Jay on the Epic pass would probably reduce pressure on Stowe.jimmywilson69 wrote:Are they willing to invest in snowmaking infrastructure at both places to bring them closer to Stowe? Also they would then own another of the major Canadian markets, with Montreal only 90ish miles from Jay Peak.
Without a doubt they are watching the situation and running numbers.

Re: Uh oh...Jay Peak owner pulls a fast one on EB-5 investor
From WCAX:
MONTPELIER, Vt. (WCAX) Former Gov. Peter Shumlin stayed at a luxury New York City apartment owned by Ariel Quiros, the man at the heart of the EB-5 Kingdom Con case.
VTDigger reports that Shumlin stayed at the apartment for several days in May 2013 and in June 2014 without paying. Quiros bought the luxury condo with money from EB-5 investors. The Securities and Exchange Commission last month ordered him to pay $81 million in assets and $1 million cash for his part in the swindle. Federal officials are in the process of selling the condo, Jay Peak and Burke Resorts, and other assets to repay investors.
Shumlin administration officials are at the center of a lawsuit by EB-5 foreign investors. They claim the state-run agency responsible for overseeing the federal visa program for foreign investors was grossly negligent in overlooking Quiros' alleged Ponzi scheme. Vermont officials argue the state is immune from such legal actions. A hearing in that civil case is scheduled this afternoon in Vermont Superior Court in Hyde Park. Attorneys for investors are expected to lay out new accusations against state officials.
A federal criminal investigation into Quiros is also still underway.

From WCAX: There are new explosive allegations against an unnamed state official, and now Vermont's attorney general wants to see the evidence supporting those claims. The claims were made by attorney Russell Barr who is representing a group of investors suing the state for their handling of the EB-5 scandal.

On first look, this case seems a bit of a stretch.
