ALBUQUERQUE MAYOR KELLER’S VETO OF THE TOP GOLF INCENTIVE PACKAGE COULD BE OVERRIDDEN BY THE ALBUQUERQUE CITY COUNCIL MONDAY NIGHT. THE MAYOR SAYS TAXPAYERS WOULDN’T GET THEIR MONEY’S WORTH WITH THE PROPOSAL. CITY COUNCILOR KEN SANCHEZ SAYS IT’S TRUE TOP GOLF WOULD GET CLOSE TO A 2-MILLION DOLLAR BREAK ON GROSS RECEIPTS TAXES…BUT ALBUQUERQUE WOULD STILL COME OUT AHEAD IN THE LONG RUN.
THE INCENTIVE PACKAGE ALSO INCLUDES MORE THAN 300-THOUSAND DOLLARS TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS TO CULTURE ROAD, NEAR I-25 AND MONTANO.
