The public can provide input on plans to expand non-gaming facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Macau.-\u00a0The Land and Urban Construction Bureau has announced a public consultation on plans to expand non-gaming facilities at Ponte 16 casino resort. The consultation will run until April 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The planned expansion comes after the government approved changes<\/a> to the land concession last November. Ponte 16, on the waterfront of Macau\u2019s Inner Harbour, has been allowed to add\u00a0a commercial building, plaza, and a ship\u00a0named Macau Palace as part of the operator’s commitment to invest in non-gaming activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new agreement allows Ponte 16 to develop an extra 9,217 square meters of land next to its current 9,424-square-meter property. Under the plan, existing buildings would remain at their current height, and any new buildings would be no taller than 20.5 meters. <\/p>\n\n\n
