Cartas al Editor, Atención San Miguel

Editor,

I am pleased that members of the foreign and Mexican community are beginning to earnestly speak out about the future development in San Miguel. The many letters to Atención and the increasing numbers at recent meetings and forums on the subject prove that sanmiguelenses want to be involved in this exciting but difficult planning process.

There are many questions still to be answered—especially in the light of the residential and commercial building surge over the past few years.

We all have a stake in what happens here over the next few years and therefore we should be participating in a frank dialogue about these and other pressing problems. Most of us came here because of the colonial beauty and the rich cultural heritage of San Miguel de Allende. The city is now at a crossroads and if the community—both Mexican and foreign—is not involved in working together with government officials and civic leaders, decisions will be made without our input.

I am all for planned development, but unless there is meaningful long-term planning, San Miguel may go the way of a lot of US and Mexican cities. As US Consular Agent Ed Clancy said recently: “..on issues that affect the entire community such as how we want San Miguel to look in the future, it is legitimate for all residents to express their views” (Atención, Jan. 5, 2007, p. 19).
