Bonacic:‘wait and see’ on new Concord money

Developer to air requests before
county legislature

By DAVID HULSE

MONTICELLO — Concord developer Louis Capelli today is expected to outline requests for new state and county assistance before the Sullivan County Legislature, but the man who would probably be expected to come up with the lion’s share of any new public money isn’t convinced yet.

New funding for the Concord project reportedly would go for a convention center on the Kiamesha Lake property, a project that has been on the Legislature’s wish list, but has never made it beyond preliminary discussion.

Capelli requested two hours before the Legislature to outline his project goals and progress. He asked that Assemblyman Jacob Gunther (D-98) and State Senator John Bonacic (RC-40) be invited to attend. One source said privately that part of Capelli’s efforts thus far includes his having contracted with a national hotel management firm, Starwood, which would supply the Marriott Hotels “flag” for the new resort.
