Tucson Debate

Re: Protection of washes stirs city debate, Arizona Daily Star August 26, 2006

It appears that Diamond Ventures and Jim Click Ford certainly take an interest in city decisions concerning land use and preserving natural areas of the Sonoran Desert. Bulldoze it flat, boys! It’s easier to build on it then.

“Who gets to let Don Diamond know his washes are back on the list?” Wow! Are they leery of this guy, or what? Well, prowl the periphery, Mayor and Council. Somebody else is in the firelight.

The last I heard, home sales are down, Ford vehicle sales are abysmal and natural preserves are desired by homebuyers. Home Depot stock might be down enough to preclude the success of new stores. Water supplies are becoming problematical and Diamond Ventures wants to make more money creating growth and they have somebody’s ear in the City Manager’s Office. Let’s rename the office before we assume Mike Hein is running it.

Voters did not elect Diamond ventures or Jim Click Ford to any office. Let the sun shine in and sweep out all those clinging cobwebs.
