Here again the North end of the county will have to have a bad disaster here BEFORE it is fixed. The BP money is not being used correctly and where it was intended to be used. I think it should be used to replenish the Gulf of the things we lost there – not all the inland projects. As the news is now reporting there was TOO many claims submitted far far from the spill. A mistake as bad as this one is now causing all the oil companies to seek production in foreign countries so no one should complain about how high fuel is going now. We are RUNNING them out of the U.S.

I think this is something we are going to see more and more of.
Roads have new dips / depressions / divots in them that were not there before the rains and flooding.
The old and crumbling infrastructure is beginning to be more evident.
Drove downtown today. Palafox Street going down the hill south of Cervantes is washboarding. Intersections at Barrancas and Garden have deepening dips and depressions. Other places are showing age and undermining.
Same is true in the north end of the county as evidenced above.
Why are the politicians not spending the BP monies on real problems like this instead of a fish hatchery downtown?

Looks like it is time to spend some county money on Shield’s Gulch!
