That is correct. However. the city of El Paso will lose revenues that were coming to that city from all of this property that was on the tax rolls of the city. The city of El Paso. at the time of the discussions with the then Ambassador Mann. stated that if this were done. in order to facilitate the flow of traffic of some 60 million people every year going back and forth at this busiest border crossing in the entire border. it would be necessary to have a highway to connect the three points of entry. through which the 60 million people pass annually. It was verbally stated at that time by the representatives of the U.S. State Department settlement group that they would try to get for the city of El Paso a recompense or a compensation in the form of this highway partly to help them accommodate to the loss of this enormous amount of property.
