Jesse, that is a good point and an explanation of why it is being done. I was aware of that. My point being, I sometimes wonder if those in San Pedro do not see "the forest for the trees". It is a huge eye sore that many tourists see and it leaves a bad impression even though there is a reason for doing it ( which most tourists do not understand ). Just because there is a reason for doing it does not mean it should be done or that there is not a better way to do it. Recognizing a problem and looking for alternate solutions is better than just trying to give the reason for the problem.

P.S. And before you or others jump all over me, AP55 or anybody else who might be critical of our beloved island and say "all you do is complain", think of AC as a business that is run by the Town Board and the tourist as their customer. When I was in business, I enjoyed hearing my customers tell me how happy they were. What I really wanted to hear was what the ones that were unhappy had to say. That was were my oportunity was to improve my business. And, it was not the customers responsibility to tell me what I needed to do to fix the problem. That was my job. That is the job of the elected officials in San Pedro.
