Property owner opposition said to kill El Paso historic district including Duranguito
UPDATE, Jan. 22: An El Paso attorney maintained Friday that plans to have a historic district downtown that includes the Duranguito neighborhood are now effectively dead since a majority of property owners in the area have come out in opposition to it.
Mark Osborn of the Kemp Smith law firm represents (on an unpaid, pro bono basis) numerous downtown property owners who say they weren t consulted about the proposed district, and he claims that state historical officials were misled into believing there was no one opposed.
Osborn told ABC-7 that the federal regulation governing the creation of historic districts says one cannot occur if more than half of the property owners oppose the plan, which is the case in this instance with over 100 signing written objections that have been submitted to state and federal officials.

When diplomats gathered at African Union headquarters earlier this year to prepare for its annual leaders’ summit, employees made a disturbing discovery.
Someone was stealing footage from their security cameras.
Acting on a tip from Japanese cyber researchers, AU technology staffers discovered a group of suspected Chinese hackers rigged a cluster of servers in the basement of an administrative annex to siphon surveillance videos from the AU campus in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia’s capital.
The security breach was carried out by a Chinese hacking group nicknamed “Bronze President,” according to a five-page internal memo reviewed by Reuters. It said the affected cameras covered “AU offices, parking areas, corridors, and meeting rooms.”
