Officials say more border fence on the way, hear concerns from public     A public open house on the construction of tactical infrastructure, such as fencing and roads, along the border in the region was held at the Windmere Hotel and Conference Center in Sierra Vista. [...]     During the open house, American Border Patrol representatives set up screens displaying live camera footage along the border.     At one point, two unidentified vehicles drove on to Spencer's ranch near Palominas. He alerted a U.S. Border Patrol agent, and a vehicle was sent to the scene. It is not clear if the suspects were found.     After that incident, Spencer boasted that his camera system is "effective." He said it is much better than the government's efforts.     "They spent $20 million on strategic border initiative to control 28 miles of border," he said. "I could effectively control 28 miles of border for $2 million. But we would use volunteers. We would use this up-to-date technology. Americans want to participate... and they are free."
