GLENDALE, AZ — Every day after work, Coit Burner sets up a ladder and strings Christmas lights around the trees at Catlin Court. On this day, it was 30 down, over a hundred to go. Burner has owned Bears & More in downtown Glendale for nearly 30 years, and when he found out the city wasn't putting up lights on his street anymore, he took it upon himself to get permission to do it.
A lack of lights on the street is one of the changes made to the event within the past few years. Jim Burke with the city's recreation and special events department says they are now focusing specifically on events within Murphy Park. But Head of the Historic Downtown Glendale Merchants Association Lorraine Zomok says she wants the city to bring back the bigger programming within the Catlin Court area.
To complicate matters more, Zomok's husband, Bud, says two years ago the city began using the name"Murphy Park Lights", instead of"Glendale Glitters". He says he discovered the name"Glendale Glitters" had never been purchased by the city, so he bought it himself because he was afraid someone else would use it for something else. He says he was willing to give the name back to the city if they wanted to use it again.
Definitely gonna go soon
