Graham G Alexander (born December 14, 1968), also known as Graham Gordon Alexander is a Mexican born Canadian developer.

Early life

Alexander was born in Oaxaca, Mexico and raised in Vancouver by his Canadian parents, British Columbia, where he attended UBC, and became an electrical engineer. He went on to become a stockbroker with Canaccord Adams.

Development career

Following his stockbroker career, he later began a development in Chilliwack, British Columbia in an area where it was claimed by local homeowners that the entire hillside was moving causing home foundations to sink and deform [ [http://www.chilliwack.com/main/page.cfm?id=37&prshow=details&prid=121 Lifting of Eastern Hillside Ban, Chilliwack, British Columbia] ] . The homeowners later sued the City of Chilliwack. The City, with no other alternative other than to support an issued Thurber Geotehnical Report [ [http://www.chilliwack.com/main/attachments/files/894/Eastern%20Hillsides%20GPS%20Results.pdf Thurber Geotechnical Report, Eastern Hillside, endorsed by the City of Chilliwack] ] , placed a building ban and moratorium on the entire eastern hillsides, including as much land as to the endge of Promontory to as far east as the Falls Golf Course [ [http://www.thefalls.com the Falls Golf Course] ] . This was the first time in the history of British Columbia that such a large area of land (well over 100,000 acres) was frozen from building construction and put many developments such as the Falls Golf Course and Alexander into possible receivership [ [http://www.gov.chilliwack.bc.ca/main/page.cfm?id=894 Thurber Report on eastern Hillside, Chilliwack] ] . After many geotechnical tests, the threats of legal actions by developers and local media attention, the City had no choice but to lift the moratorium, and on July 15th 2004, Alexander was the first developer to receive a development permit on the Eastern Hillside since the ban was lifted [ [http://www.chilliwack.com/apps/council/meetings/minutes%5Creg%5CRC%20Minutes%20-%20July%2019.pdf Receipt of Development Permit from City of Chilliwack, first received in many years due to hilside movement] ] . The subdivision was created and two new roads were named Mount Thurston Drive and Mount Archibald Place on the 32 half acre lot subdivision [ [http://www.chilliwack.com/apps/council/meetings/agenda%5Creg%5CRC%20Listing%20-%20October%2031.pdf Naming of 2 new roads in Chilliwack Mount Thurston Drive and Mount Archibald Place] ] . The controversy is no longer and development continues there today on Marble Hill Road.

He then moved on to create a hotel in Tulum, Mexico called parayso hotel [ [http://www.parayso.com The Parayso Hotel Website info in Tulum, Mexico] ] [ [http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g150813-d644854-Reviews-Parayso_Hotel_and_Spa-Tulum_Yucatan_Peninsula.html, A Hotel Review website] ] . He is President of a US Land Development Company, Rancho Santa Monica Developments, Inc [ [http://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?company=rancho+santa+monica&CIK=&filenum=&State=&SIC=&owner=include&action=getcompany SEC Government Filing] ] . The latest development is a hotel in vancouver, canada; however, the city will not permitted it to proceed due to height, massing, and drop-off zoning issues [ [http://www.crer.biz/pages/news/NewsPageRegion.php?id=1000&Region=08&Type=5&Page=27 CRER dot biz - Joint Venture Agreement Reached for Vancouver Hotel ] ] [ [http://www.commercialpropertynews.com/cpn/search/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003816463 Plans Proceeding for Vancouver Hotel ] ] .
