By REGINA DOORNWhite RockWhen I heard there was going to be a new housing project in White Rock, I was pretty excited about it. Perhaps some affordable housing might bring more people to town and more local businesses for WR, too! Its on a strip of Hwy 4, which I drive by every single day: on my way to the local grocery and hardware store, li stanley quencher brary and post office, senior cente stanley cup r, or when I need to visit Los Alamos or Santa Fe.However, I have noticed a few things during the development of Mirador and Im not happy about it anymore.First came the big bulldozers, which wiped out nearly every single native tree, shrub and blade of grass on about 60 acres. This was done quickly and efficiently before too many people noticed. Then all activity ceased for awhile when BBB was reached Big Bad Basalt . Next came another treat: explosions blasting through the rock, day after day after day. Large earth movers came and completely changed the look and topography of the land.Then, I got the facts. This housing project is not going to be affordable at all! A serious bummer, in my opinion. I started to get really mad whenever I drove on Longview Drive and viewed empty, dilapidated and blighted buildings and thought to myself there is something seriously wrong with this picture . Why are we developing undeveloped land instead of improving already developed land No pun intended here鈥?its not funny at all. Finally, I noticed the wall going u stanley cup p along Hwy 4 and the Aha! moment came to me: were Xiew New Mexico Environment Department Settles Case With ETC Texas Pipeline
