Jerry,

I am pleased to here that you have concerns about Loreto Bay along with myself.

Most developments in Baja were poorly planned with regard to environmental issues. That is the very point I am making. Developments don't have to equal bad planning. But they will have to have governmental oversite with regards to environmental issues just as they do stateside IMHO.

Many posters on this board relative to LB have seemed to give them a pass on the water issues and I can't be silent on the issue. Doesn't mean I am anti development. I just want to be able to take my grandaughter out fishing and see the joy on her face when she brings one in. I want her to enjoy Baja like most of us here have.

Isn't that why you want to spend 8 months of the year in Baja? It's why I will build a house and live in Baja too!

Regards,

Ken

its just seems that the enviromental issues are like a wild card any time anyone is against development be it baja or the USA

i havent seen any facts as to a desalt plant in loreto bay being poorly planned or a threat to the enviroment
as a matter of fact i have seen nothing at all about the facts of the desalt plant that loreto bay in proposing only that they plan on building one

before that it was where is the water coming from??

and then the plants and animals,
this all costs lots of money

soon only the rich and famouse will be able to afford to live there

isnt it nice that we saved it all for them??

When will the wages catch up to the cost of living? Who's making out with the difference, since fuel and food is not much lower than here (US).

If the typical laborers get paid $3 per hour instead of $1.50, will everything else jump in cost?

Jerry, could it be that these environmental issues are legitimate concerns?

Can you tell us of a development that has not altered the natural environment?

Jerry, you have an interesting take on evolution there. To re-phrase my question, do you know of any development that has improved the environment?

She is (literally) invested in the town. I see her as one of the positive outcomes from the Loreto Bay project.

never, and worse yet "credito" is starting to catch on around here

small businesmen like me and others in my age group that are Mexican. why do I say this? because the Mexican financial burdens are on the shrinking middle class and most of us own small businesses because those over 30 have a hard time getting a well paying job in a company.

yes and costs for everything have already skyrocketed here. I'm just a working stiff and can baerly afford the prices. my Mexican neighbors can't afford them at all. so they will eventually sell out and move to a barrio where they'll be bussed in to their jobs wiping the asse$ of the rich and famous.

bienvenidos a Loreto
