Trainwreck?
Tulum is the same as the entire coast regarding the rules and the unwritten rules but, the amount of enforcement was negligible.
When nobody comes around to check up, the properties expand to accomodate the needs of the touristas, often encroaching the federale zone which makes some people upset.
The federal zone is easily checked from the air and the sea thus the trouble begins.
Now that the government is changing, big money is moving in, the airport on the never never plan, everyone is trying to slice up the pie.
Downtown Tulum, the developers dream property may or may not go ahead but the key is always money and the new guys(governent) need money. Maybe the taxes from this developement, right or wrong, will happen because of the required financial input.
The Tulum park is across the road, that may be why the struggle has begun.
Ah life in the Wild Wild Maya, ain't it grand?
