"....... The locals will deal with our bad government..."


From what I've seen on Facebook, local media's fawning coverage of Jorge Sanchez, and the size of his crowds suggest he'll be around long enough to justify another "improvement" of the Paseo three years down the road.

The money from the bottomless budget for the remodelación is paying for a lot of that media loyalty.

It'll need improvement before that. I don't think folks realize what is being done to try to keep it presentable just for the political photo op that they can't take until after the elections. Incredibly costly and inefficient. Every day pipas have to come water ALL the plants, and even then, they've already lost one of the new palms in front of the museo, and I recall seeing another one whose top has browned, I think in the same area. Remember, all the plants they planted between La Madera and the Museo have already died. Meanwhile, the canal wall is all washed out under El Vado footbridge and will probably collapse in a heavy rain, which seem to be more and more common. Gee, there are some places that actually DO need cement but they're being ignored. And what the town continues clamoring for is that hospital I wrote about in an open letter to the governor last year. The same hospital that was promised to us by at least 3 of the past 4 administrations.
