A few links from around the Internet:
- Via Bruce Katz, a look at how municipalities are responding to the decline of urban convention centers: “By building more convention centers, of course, financed by debt backed by new taxes and fees on already struggling taxpayers.”
- My colleague Rosalie Rayburn documents the depth of the Rio Rancho housing bust: “[H]home construction in Rio Rancho … is on track this year to be at the lowest level since records began in 1985.”
- All those snow geese we so love at New Mexico’s Rio Grande wildlife refuges are part of a bit an overpopulation problem.
- And finally from the morning paper, my year-end weather review.
