ALBUQUERQUE VOTERS GET THE CHANCE TO VOTE ON THE ALBUQUERQUE RAPID TRANSIT PROJECT. THE BERNALILLO COUNTY COMMISSION TUESDAY NIGHT APPROVED A RESOLUTION TO PUT THE QUESTION TO VOTERS THIS NOVEMBER.
BUT WHAT THE QUESTION ACTUALLY ASKS IS IF YOU’RE IN FAVOR OF PUTTING THE 119 MILLION DOLLAR A-R-T PROJECT ON THE BALLOT IN A FUTURE ELECTION. AND THAT MEANS THE CITY CAN STILL MOVE FORWARD WITH BUILDING THE CONTROVERSIAL TRANSIT PROJECT.
COMMISSIONER WAYNE JOHNSON VOTED AGAINST PUTTING THE QUESTION ON THE BALLOT. HE SAYS IF A-R-T IS PUT TO VOTERS, THEIR RESPONSE SHOULD IMPACT POLICY.
