Typical. What about the City’s fantastic financial health they’ve been bragging about all these years?

Council wastes incredible sums on nonsense but when it comes to a real function of governmnet they expect us to pay more. I am waiting to hear “user pays” next.

When records are not properly researched or the underground utility marking people do not have accurate data then problems arise. However there is no greater problem than the choking of the natural arroyos that has been done by Tlaquepaque and Los Abrigados. Hard to take two 12′ culverts loaded with water from 4 square miles and push it down a ravine that has been shrunk to about 10′ wide by 9 foot tall. Expect continued flooding at the bottom of Brewer road. Private property, city has no authority.

For some reason the water company started discharging water into an adjacent wash. There was standing water, and cattails even grew. It seems the City sent the homeowners a letter demanding the cattails be cleaned up. The homeowners said hey, tell it to the water company. The discharges that had been going on for about 5 years suddenly stopped.

There’s no easy money to be picked out of taxpayer pockets any more.
