DISCUSSIONS – ANSWERS – ANNOUNCEMENTS
a. Driving to Baja? I use Google Maps on my phone for the entire route. Go to Google Maps, look in the top left corner for the three bars, click there. Drop down to “off line maps”. With a little patience you can down load all the sections of the trip south. That will give you GPS coverage via your phone for the entire trip even without cell coverage. Even in normal usage, downloading “off line maps” will use a lot less data and save initialization time.
There is an app that I use frequently called: Life 360. It allows you to track and be tracked by family and friends in your group. When I can’t remember where I left my cell phone, I use my wife’s phone to find it (or was it vice versa) using Life 360. If you have one of those expensive UTV’s, you might leave an old phone installed in the UTV with a cheap data plan. That can track the UTV if stolen. If it were me, I would use a Wyze Cam aimed at the UTV when it’s at home. The Wyze Cams can be set to record on motion and give alerts. thecomputerguy@usa.com
b. There is an ongoing discussion about creating a 6th Municipality in BCS. Los Barriles would leave La Paz and join a newly formed Municipality with San Jose. Here is a link to the latest article in the BCS Noticias: https://www.bcsnoticias.mx/
Google Translate: “It is not convenient for Baja California Sur , nor for La Paz the atomization of more municipalities, because the bag that is received from the Federation, is the same bag of federal shares, creating new municipalities would reduce the capacity of operation. I have a great commitment to Los Barriles , we are going to start that year with the rehabilitation of the sports unit, we are committed to the community that 50% of the total amount collected is the benefit of that community and we will fulfill it ”, Said the Edil de La Paz.
It should be noted that, the local deputy, Carlos José Van Wormer , representative of Los Barriles said that 90% of the inhabitants of that place, expressed their desire to go to Los Cabos, since the City of Rubén Muñoz just returns 10,000 pesos of the 3 million pesos that it collects in the tourist town per month, in addition to alleging, that they lack the capacity to provide them with basic services.
