A couple of holes in the wall are not the answer.
Nor is unwarranted bashing of the developer over an issue with a resolution in sight.
A comprehensive storm water drainage system is needed by this village. The rate at which development is proceeding requires that everyone who lives here examine the environmental impact of their existence on the lives of everyone in the pueblo.
John does not want to impose the American way on the local culture and longs for old Mexico. Unfortunately for that view, this is the 21st century and and the technology exists to build a sustainable habitat if we work together.
There are two sides to every coin and every story. The short cut is not always the best solution. Have we forgotten the ECI submarine in this very spot last summer?
