Lisa Baca Diaz, the city's planner, said her staff has a number of problems with the current proposal and wants Hadden to meet certain criteria, including bringing in the utilities in the front of the buildings instead of the back. Hadden opposes this because it will him cost more money, but it will also cost the city more if it has to make repairs. These are basically the same things city planners have been saying since 1997. Diaz said Hadden has refused to meet with them and address these concerns That's not, however, how Ionta views it. But under the motion approved by the city, Hadden has to sit down with the city's planning staff to get approval for his construction plans before he can go ahead.

A shoplifter caught outside Grants said his crimes in California, Arizona and New Mexico helped relieve stress, according to New Mexico State Police Officer Kevin Bruno. Bruno arrested Sean Brinton at 6 p.m. Tuesday after an employee at the Petro truck stop in Grants called police with a description of Brinton and his car seen on the store's video camera display. Ariz. Brinton later told police he shoplifted from several stores during his trip from California through Arizona. The shoplifter told police he steals to see if he can get away with it. Doing so helps him vent stress, Bruno said.
