Monday’s Five Facts
[1] APD releases new data on Central Corridor clean-up operations – Last month APD announced a clean-up operation to improve the Central Corridor. BCSO announced last week that they would be joining Albuquerque Police in cleaning up Central. Since starting the clean-up operations, APD announced they’ve made 70 arrests, cleared more than 63 felony warrants, and made 490 traffic citations. BCSO also said they will be conducting a second phase for the Central Corridor Operation.
[2] Santa Fe Mayor proposes amendment on gun laws – Santa Fe Mayor Allen Webber is proposing a ballot measure that would remove a provision in the state constitution that limits how much power local government has in deciding gun laws. Currently, the state constitution does not allow cities or counties to make gun regulations that are more restrictive that the state’s regulations. If Webber’s proposal is passed by the state legislature, local governments would be able to add more restrictions, if they still fall in line with the U.S. constitution.
