Can we get the members and board members of the Borderplex Alliance to co-sign on some of the bonds the City’s issuing? Not the Borderplex Alliance non-profit organization. The members and board members.
Maybe we can get the members of the El Paso Chamber of Commerce to back some paper for us, also. Let’s get them to put some skin in the game. Something a little more valuable than their “personal integrity”.
While we’re at it, let’s get our elected officials to put their money where they put our money.
