Infrastructure
Infrastructure
Due to the unfortunate state of our roads, and the lack of consistent upkeep in systems such as traffic lights and parks Brawley as missed out on the potential to have a beauty looking city that attracts people from outside the county. The lack of upkeep also cause traffic congestions leading to many to be late to work and school. We need to update the infrastructure we have in place to ensure greatness in our city.
