Promoting Development in the Community

May God greatly bless all those who have supported this cause. We have had difficulty progressing with the project due to the intense rains in our community. The engineer in charge of the work has recommended that we wait until the site is dry so that the infrastructure has good sustainability, since there is a site next door that fills with water in large quantities. Only several truckloads of caliche have been poured, and because the caliche pits are wet, the work has been very slow.
