Grand Canyon Skywalk: Peach Springs Hualapai Tribe and David Jin Grand Canyon Skywalk development program to sit down and try to hash the dispute to arbitration hearings on Monday and Tuesday. A court ordered the tribe of hearings last month. The disagreement is about the Skywalk, a $ 30 million; glass Bottom Bridge over the rim and 4000 feet above the floor of the Grand Canyon and downtown. Each side claims the other is not carrying out its part of the initial contract. The tribe says that Jin did not complete the Skywalk shelter. They say the unfinished building is to have a negative impact on visitor traffic to the site. Threaten to take over the project of expropriation. Jin says that the tribe did not pay him his fair share of revenue from the Skywalk, and prevented him from clearing the visitor center by issuing orders to suspend the work and not to run utilities on the side, as promised. He argues that the tribe is trying to run it into bankruptcy so they can acquire by expropriation Skywalk. Jin suspect’s tribes would give him the fair value of the contract, which he believes is about $ 100 million, or that we would like people to vote. According to the ordinances of the Tribal Council is the sale or purchase of more than $ 50,000 to vote for the people. Jin has filed an injunction in federal court March 30 to prevent the tribal council to take the lease through eminent domain. The Court rejected his request, saying he could do anything until the Council has actually tried to take over the contract. The Federal Court also ordered that the case be decided in tribal court appeals before at the federal level.Grand Canyon Skywalk
