Thanks Rob. I actually found less politi-speak than I would have expected and some of his arguments/excuses have validity (those problems he inherited without the money to fix).

If your FB dialogue continues with him could you throw fumigation in the mix. I agree with Allen that Zika is right up with bullets during this rainy season.

I suppose many of us would be more sympathetic to his "arguments/excuses" if there were more transparency and less of what appears to be only a simulation of his duties while for all intents and purposes actively politicking for another political position. I predict he will resign early next year in order to begin campaigning for his next rung on the political ladder towards bigger budgets and more power. It's gotten to be a well-established pattern. So our mayors spend their first year learning the job, one year applying that "knowledge", and their last year out of office campaigning (because unlike the USA there is no re-election and a Mexican politician cannot campaign for another elected office while still in office).

I had an exchange of opinions recently with the mayor of Zihuatanejo, Gustavo García Bello. A local reporter posted an article about the mayor distributing work tools to some folks in one of Zihuatanejo's outlying communities. I commented that it looked like the mayor was on the campaign trail while many old problems remain unattended (an observation shared by many of my friends and neighbors). While I appreciated his response, I found much of his reply to be predictable and defensive politi-speak, yet some nuggets of useful information can also be found in his comments. However I'll let you all decide for yourselves. Here is the conversation:
