Universal Destinations and Experiences, part of Comcast Corporation and based in the United States, said it is “in the very early stages of exploring the possibility of a potential park and resort experience” at the location. John McReynolds from the company’s external affairs wrote in a letter to residents: “While we do own the land, we are only at the beginning of our feasibility study as part of our evaluation of potential sites. Mr McReynolds wrote of the positive economic impacts a theme park would bring to the area. There are five Universal resorts across the world, in the United States and Asia.
