At the October meeting, Markey stated that Solrac LLC has been owned by the Rafael family for 20 years and in addition to Rafael-DeMello, Hathaway and his wife, Ivonilde Rafael Hathaway, and a third sister are also principals.
The Rafael family has yet to buy the property, which is still owned by Quinary Properties LLC, whose principals are the Aghai family, according to the meeting minutes, but Markey said Solrac LLC has a purchase and sale agreement for the property.
While Rafael himself isn’t mentioned at the meeting or listed under the LLC, he discussed the project with an editor from Dartmouth Week, along with plans to restore the Hawthorne Country Club on Tucker Road.
