Victor Medina, left, whose parents own the Manhattan Project Restaurant at 1789 Central Ave., speaks with County Administrator Harry Burgess following Friday’s noon Council meeting. Council members approved a new liquor license for the restaurant 6-0. Councilor Steven Girrens was absent. Medina explained that he wanted to drive the signed paperwork to the state office in Santa Fe that afternoon and he and Burgess headed upstairs to get it done. Medina told the Los Alamos Daily Post that even though the state has up to 30 days to sign and send the license to the restaurant, he anticipated receiving it sometime next week. Photo by Carol A.
