ALBUQUERQUE CITY COUNCILORS APPROVE A PACKAGE OF PROPOSALS TO ENCOURAGE BUSINESSES TO ADD NEON SIGNS TO LIGHTEN AND BRIGHTEN UP CENTRAL AVENUE WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS. MAYOR BERRY SAYS IT WILL MAKE THE DRIVE ALONG HISTORIC ROUTE 66 MORE VIBRANT … AND IT'S HOPED IT'LL INSPIRE TRAVELERS TO VEER OFF I-40 AND USE ROUTE 66 THROUGH ALBUQUERQUE INSTEAD.
THE ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL REPORTS BERRY INTENDS TO SIGN THE LEGISLATION. BUT ONE COUNCILOR, ISAAC BENTON, HAS CONCERNS. HE SAYS IT'S UNPREDICTABLE HOW THINGS COULD WORK OUT.
