Development on More Mesa
As we reported earlier, a development plan for More Mesa  has been proposed and was being circulated in our community.  Although MMPC has been requesting information critical to any formal decisions we might make with respect to this development, that information has not been forthcoming.

Note: As far as MMPC is aware, the sale of More Mesa to a Saudi developer in late 2012 seems to have marked an end to the attempts of the Hawk team to develop More Mesa.  Therefore all material related to this potential development has been removed from the MMPC web site.

Our mission remains to preserve all of More Mesa … in its entirety … for all future generations.  We intend to continue working toward achieving that critically important mission.
