He also said the hotel is set to have more than 420 rooms, four restaurants and a pool – among other amenities.
The hotel and resort will be part of a more than 200-acre property called Everest Place. Land is reportedly being cleared.
“There’s going to be two other hotels out there, plus a huge variety of shopping and dining around these beautiful man-made lakes, great ambiance,” Minich added.
