FARR WEST -- An open irrigation ditch going through the Remuda subdivision is causing concerns for neighbors, the city council was told at a recent meeting.

Tamara Jones said she has lived in the subdivision since 2003 and would really like the ditch that runs through her property to be covered. She said the developer promised when she moved in that the ditch would be covered, and she stated because it is not, she can't use about 40 feet of the back portion of her property.

Mayor Jimmie Papageorge reminded Jones that he had offered to split the cost with her to cover the ditch.
