Aliens attend groundbreak for Main Street reconstruction
The Main Street Reconstruction Project renamed the Main Street Incident began with a Monday ground‑breaking near Main and 11th. Three child aliens helped kick off the year‑long project by riding Twin Mountain Construction’s asphalt grinder, clearing about 100 feet of asphalt while spectators watched. Mayor Tom Jennings and officials described phased street work across several blocks with detours and temporary closures through 1996, including new sidewalks, lighting, and landscaping.

House sets aside bottle bill in likely death
The New Mexico House Taxation Committee set aside House Bill 567 by Rep. Shirley Baca 9-3, ending prospects for a seven cent container deposit to fund recycling. Baca, undeterred, said support remains and noted a similar Senate bill survives. Opponent Rep. Parsons argued it adds a consumer tax despite private recycling efforts.
