With all the threads delving into the pros and cons of development, I'm surprised no one has commented on the building code change allowing for the construction of 4 story buildings...

When and where did you hear that?

Strange that no one on the island has heard anything about that. You must be very well connected!

How is it that someone in Beloit, WI would know about building code changes here even before our elected officials know?

I have never been to Beloit.
You might want some remedial training in the intricasy and serendipity of IT.
I know this the same way I know Marty was on the late morning flight from SPR to BZE and thence the 12:30 CO flight(time adjusted for actual departure) to IAD 12/15 carrying a 4 foot parcel with the pony-tailed gringo(!).
I believe any property owner up-to-speed(and many are) would be aware of this issue..."...gee, at the price of ocean front property we can't make it cash flow at 3 stories..."...yada yada...
Perhaps you don't know all the elected officials know?

Thats odd...your IP address is in Beloit.
Why is Martys travel included here? What's the connection?

You are not listening...
Just to confirm that the IP has nothing to do with the origin...

Tomorrows edition of the San Pedro Daily may smoke the 4 storey rumour out of hiding.

So, now there is a 4 storey(sic/Brit) rumour(sic)?

Problems with your US spel chequer?
