Preliminary Plat Approval

Finally a meeting the angry neighborhood didn't show up to. Although long the meeting was quit pleasant. Unanimous approval of our subdivision! Hip-Hip Hooray. Pressing forward towards Final Plat now. Wish us luck.

Uprising- We and Dem

= rebellion, and also refers to a killer roots reggae album by Bob Marley.
Just our luck that our soon-to-be neighbors know this concept too and our idealistic desire to nest has turned into a neighborhood upprising. Still not convinced that we have the legal right to access our lot from a public road the fight goes on and has turned into another two weeks of delay. The facts and records are there, a survey was presented with all the legal descriptions. The city engineer was there with similar facts but we are now guilty until proven innocent.

From the Uprising album in the song We and Dem it says

"we no know how we and dem a-go work this out,oy!
we no know how we and dem a-go work it out."
