[Neighbors] ART

Kurt,
FYI, I am also in agreement with you. Sadly many of us would like to see the $ spend more wisely but we are not being heard.

 Kurt:
  I share your concerns about the negative impact of ART to
 the Nob Hill community, residents and business owners
 alike.  It seems to me that Mayor Berry and the city
 politicos are simply stuffing this entire project down our
 throats whether we like/want it or not.  Money can be
 better spent - KAFB water cleanup for example. 
 Question is, what can be done?  Is there any organized
 opposition to this plan which will pressure the politicians
 where it impacts them the most - that being future political
 plans?

 Central in Nob Hill and the prospects of the bus rapid
 transit? I do not think so. I have attended many meeting and
 spoke against it. I have written my concerns about this
 project. As I have said this is a solution looking for a
 problem.It will cost millions of Albuquerque citizens
 dollars and we will not have a better system than we do now.
 I am truly afraid that Central will become a wasteland
 during construction. These business scrape by and any
 decline in commerce can put them under. I have not met many
 people who favor this project except the Transportation
 department and our city politicians. The allure of "free"
 money from the Federal government has drowned out all the
 critical voices. Who benefits from this? I do not think it
 is the people who live along or frequent Central Ave. is it
 too late to stop this? There are so many other things we
 need to spend public money for.
