My "small-back-yard" of Moab, has been dealing with their city council, who
apparently want to live in the deep pockets of "developers", over the last
15
years. The citizens are about 50-50 so far. The latest "win" saved their
millions-
of-years-old aquifer out above Spanish Valley. There is NO safety by just
relying on an "independent body" ... they have fresh cash in their pockets
from those same developers. No sleep-walking allowed in citizenship ....
it's a full time job.
This entire area is such a favorite spring and fall, and the La Sals in the
heat
of summer, there is more vanagon content in the Fryedaye rambling than most/
many other destinations.
bob ... what Tim said.
