of stuff. Anyone have a short version of the do's and don't's for both os these types of issues??
Thanks!  |

This whole issue will die a natural and timely death....unless, of course, it's kept on life support.

Fulano states his name is Paul Clark who developed Castillo de Arena. Baja sure attracts some slimy folks. We will put him in the same list as Ray
Novelli another crooked Canadian.
Nothing better than a good ass kicking for them.

have been him. |
Wasn't the Americans home... The land and everything on it belonged to the campo. |
Guess your right. Some Campos are like that most though have a clause in the contract about a 10 to 15% allowing someone else to do the work, wich
this campo owner originaly accepted. Kind of cold to Me.

My name is Paul Clark, the developer of Castillo de Arena. Matt is fairly accurate in his description of events. We have a safe secure community and
have no issues with our neighbours unless they break the law. In this case Matt Fitch and his employer, Rob Loughan restricted access to the beach.
When they did so the first time I wrote them a letter and sent a copy of the legislation prohibiting anyone from blocking an arroyo. At that time
they were told that I would report them to the authorities if they continued or blocked the arroyo in the future. They agreed and assured me in
writing that they would not fence or block the arroyo and asked that we work together protecting the beach.
They chose to ignore my warning and fenced the arroyo, so I reported them to the authorities.
Now for the people who want to send a hit man or tar and feather me etc., here I am. I have made a commitment to this country and I am proud to be a
Mexican citizen.
I am protecting a community from illegal actions and restrictions and I am very happy to put my face to it, all my posts and all my actions.
Regards
Paul Clark

Paul, are sure they are behind the closing off of the arroyo? Perhaps the squatters did it. Regardless closing off the arroyos is wrong.

Paul,
For the record, I am sorry your name got out as that was not my intent. If it was I would have just put it in the original post. I meant to do no harm
to you and stated early on that I would not let your name out. I do not know how fulano got involved or how he made the connection and I am peeed
about it. I should have just let this slide, and not tried to do whatever I was I thought I could accomplish by posting on here. I guess I was
concerned that this would never stop, and was trying to put a stop to it.
Like I originally said, I had absolutely no part of fencing the arroyo, and I signed a statement to immigration stating that. I pulled out at the
rocks immediately at your request when you sent me the law, as I had no interest in making enemies with you or anyone else. The legal rep for the
corporation signed a statement saying that he was responsible for hiring the fencers and that they in fact made a mistake and removed their mistake as
soon as Ceasar showed up and told them to pull it down.
Now that this has became what it has, we are sick to our stomachs. We don't want any trouble and if there is to be any trouble we would rather leave
baja at this time and return north as we are really on our way out anyways, so we can provide Wyatt with an education and I can repersue my career as
a Project Manager. All that is important to me is raising my son and providing for both him and Chelo. As well as fishing of course.
Like I previously said, I am terribily sorry that your name and company came out, if possible I would like to sit down with you and discuss this
calmly in person and put this behind us, as we have other things in the past.
I am extending an olive branch and hopefully you will accept it. You have know me for 10 yrs and I am nothing if I am not honest and sincere, and
hopefully we can go on about our ways. I want to bury the hachet all the hachets.
Please accept my apology. I forgive you for turning me in after this fiasco. This blew up into a huge mess, something that I in no way wanted. Now
that I look back at it, i have no idea what I was trying to accomplish, I just know the outcome was not it. If I could find a way to remove the fulano
files I would. Hopefully Doug will delete or lock out this post. Doug if you are reading this, if possible will you do this? I can delete the original
posts and all my posts, but not everything.
The squatters had nothing to do with the fence in the arroyo, it was done as an accident by the fencers.
Once again I am terribly sorry at the results of my posting.
Sincerely,
Matt Fitch

Wait a minute. They put up an illegal fence, so you filed a false report with immigration? The only authorities you should have reported them to is
the ones who keep the beach access open. How does filing a false report with immigration resolve you legal issue? That was a retaliation, not a legal
resolution. And if you are happy to put your face to it, why did you have his brother-in-law sign the letter, and not sign it yourself? And which
community are you protecting if the fence was put up to stop robberies?
You have a lot of explaining to do, Seņor quien era una gabacho, pero ahora is puro mexicano en su metodo y mente.

Big men here
Matt.....very good letter to Paul. It's very clear, and humble.
Paul....you are a businessman, I am too. Mistakes are made everyday....we deal with them in a positive way and move on. You must be a good
guy...otherwise you would not be too successfully down there.
Lets have 2 big men here.
And Matt.....you love it down there. Stay and work things out.
Good luck to you both.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

fence issue sounds like it was resolved by reasonable parties.
the only thing you don't explain is the alleged false report to immigration. what about that?

I too would like to know why a false report was filed. It sounds as though someone went outside of the law to harm someone else and now needs to
explain why they did that. If a false report was filed here in the USA that person would be in a lot of trouble. I hope Mexico has the same on their
books for those who file false complaints.

Now the hate mail starts --- and I post this to share and educate and not to bring our dispute back into play, which is settled.
Received this morning by email:
From:
THE GULL <bajad***y@hotmail.com>
It's in the works. I make it my business to have crooked CANUK developers run out of mexico.
regards
