City officials in Sunland Park, New Mexico, have delivered a "cease and desist" order to the owners of land where a private border wall is being built.

The project doesn't have proper permits to proceed because an application filed was incomplete, Sunland Park spokesman Peter Ibarbo told CNN.

"The rules apply to everyone," Ibarbo said. "That's the process."

The incomplete application isn't the only issue, Sunland Park Mayor Javier Perea told reporters Tuesday

"My understanding is that city ordinance only allows a wall up to six feet tall, and this far exceeds that," he said.

The city's chief inspector is scheduled to visit the site Wednesday to help determine the next steps, Ibarbo said.

They just want to stop the wall by any means possible.

[bboop]

Who the H-E-double toothpicks do these petty martinets think they are??

[gundog]

Call it a homeless camp. No permits required.

[Licensed-To-Carry]

Hey Mr. Mayor, rules don't really apply to everyone, only to Republicans.

There are no rules for Demorats.

Yeah. If the area was strewn with needles, feces and aborted fetuses, there would not be even the slightest resistance....

The wall passed building inspections last week. They would have been done this week except the mayor made up some new permit requirements to stop them. Tom Tancredo will be down soon to see what is going on.

“Tom Tancredo will be down soon to see what is going on”

Good. I hope he can help them navigate this deliberate quagmire.

[Lockbox]

And Buck ‘wonders aloud what kind of name “Javier Perea” is’........

[mountainlion]

Tom Tancredo will be down soon to see what is going on.

He was part of the permitting process for the wall. The wall stopped many trails used by illegals, drug runners and such.

Everyone knows what Javier Perea, El Alcalde de Sunland Park, is up to here.

Those are HIS compadres coming over the line. He’s gotta do everything possible to keep them coming or else Los Vatos Locos in Chihuahua will be on his butt.

[Freedom4US]

Nobody in government seems to follows the law.

It’s super cute that they believe everyone else will continue to do so in the face of blatant illegality. What do they expect?

[Innovative]

Excellent. Go, Tom, go.

[mabarker1]

Hey ibarbo, FOAD you demonratcommiescumbag POS!!!

[Governor Dinwiddie]

The border is not subject to town ordinances. It is an area outside any jurisdiction other than the Federal government. In fact it is even out of reach of certain provisions of the Constitution. Someone crossing the border can be detained and searched without a warrant, and without probable cause.
 

[puppypusher]

Just how does a city or town have the ability to stop construction of something on the U.S.border?

“Sunland Park Mayor Javier Perea told reporters Tuesday “My understanding is that city ordinance only allows a wall up to six feet tall, and this far exceeds that,”

LOL, yeah no Sh*t Sherlock a border wall is higher than 6 feet. You’re effing pathetic..

[hal ogen]

I bet this criminal loser mayor has drug connections . Many of his extended probably are illegals. These criminals are pathetic . Investigate this nitwit bum.

[polymuser]

Time for a full, deep investigation of Senior Mayor.

Careful, San Fransiscans could sue you for telling the world the truth about how low and scummy they are (except for Michael Savage).
