Donald Trump plans to begin the process of constructing a wall on the southern border in March, sources familiar with the president-elect’s transition team told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

The transition team is planning big spending negotiations with Congress at that time, which will include money for the wall — a platform on which Trump built his campaign for the presidency. He plans to make Mexico pay for the wall directly or indirectly by increasing fees on visas and border crossing cards, enforcing trade tariffs and taxing money transfers abroad.

Trump has said the wall, which will be at least 35 to 50 feet high and made of pre-cast concrete, would cost anywhere from $8 billion to $12 billion.

A wall is not as wide as a sidewalk. I've a high voltage transmission line going across my property. There is only one tower with 4 guy wires that mess up where I can plant a crop: no more than 50 sq. ft. total.

The power company really doesn't USE that much of my land, but there is an easement associated with it.

I can plant under the wires, but I can't build under them.
