Funding approved for renovations at Los Vecinos Community Center

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – The Los Vecinos Community Center Park in Tijeras will soon be getting major upgrades. While the plans were approved two weeks ago, on Tuesday night, Bernalillo County commissioners approved the transfer of $1 million from the county’s general fund to pay for the renovations.

The money will go toward a new skateboard park, upgrades to the existing well, and ADA access to the center and parking lot. Groundbreaking is expected in September.
