ANDREWS, Judge (specially concurring). Although I concur with the result, only two issues warrant discussion in this opinion. The first, whether inverse condemnation is an appropriate remedy, is aptly discussed and decided in Wheeler v. Board of County Comr’s of San Juan County, 74 N.M. 165, 391 P.2d 664 (1964) and Garver v. Public Service Company of New Mexico, 77 N.M. 262, 421 P.2d 788 (1966). The second, whether and in what manner, plaintiff can amend her complaint or file a new action is discussed and decided in Malone v. Swift Fresh Meats Co., 91 N.M. 359, 574 P.2d 283 (1978), where the Supreme Court held that “[a] new cause of action may be alleged in an amended complaint, provided it is founded on facts not wholly foreign to the facts originally pleaded.” 91 N.M. 359, at 362, 574 P.2d 283, at 286. The opinion need say little else.
