Morning......not trying to go political here but has anyone heard of this......just saw an video on this
Apparently a developer with 'thousands' of acres has marketed in Spanish to migrants a no income required opportunity to buy 1/4 acre to 3/4 acre lots with utilities (at a high interest rate >9%). The person, family, or migrant, whatever you want to say, can build what they want there with no deed restrictions or building codes. This is north of Houston at a place called Plum Grove or Colony Ridge. ICE is staying away and there is a lack of law enforcement. DPS is saying cartels are already present in the area. This has been going on for some time but apparently it is starting to grow.
We have problems with colonias all over this state. The state has refused to step in to require sanitary conditions and safe water. We have an area in east Denton near the lack just outside the city limits (and the city does not want to take them in) where people build what they want without any restrictions. Some people live in shanties, some in barns like you buy at Lowes, some in buses, etc. on small lots. Needed to go down there to see a student and family only to quickly realize it was not safe to drive in there much less try to find these people. People living there did not like seeing an unfamiliar truck. School officer told me I should not have gone into there. It is right next to the Baptist Camp.
How does the county and state allow this to happen?
