Torrance County Audit Findings Coming Soon?

At the evening meeting of the Torrance County Commission held June 27, 2012, Commissioner Venessa Chavez-Gutierrez provided copies of a form/letter from the State Auditor requesting someone to be the point of contact and it was indicated that the auditor's office was also seeking additional documents. 

Commissioner Tapia said that Commissioner Chavez Gutierrez should be the point of contact because she had ordered the audit without commission approval (a position that is totally unsupported by both the commissions approved meeting minutes and video footage of meeting coverage from the January 11, 2012 commission meeting).  Commissioner Freyburger agreed.

So good, bad, or any where in between findings of the investigative audit may be forthcoming very soon.  To the best of my knowledge, there has been no information presented regarding the investigation by the New Mexico Attorney Generals office - perhaps those findings or at least an update will be coming soon as well.  Video from tonights meeting will be available as soon I can get the uploads completed - possibly by tomorrow evening.

District 3 Roads Getting Much Needed Attention!

We do not live in the richest county in New Mexico, as a matter of fact, our counties budget is hard pressed to address all of the county roads so historically, a rotational style approach has been used to service our roads. 

Guess it was my areas turn for which I am extremely grateful.  I wanted to thank the Torrance County Road Department for all of the hard work that has been going on in my part of District 3.  Our county roads are pretty awful and in my area, the roads are so narrow in some places that you actually touch mirrors with on coming traffic.  Crews have worked to widen roads and are applying new surface material and re-working bar ditches.

Thanks guys for all of your hard work and thanks to our County Commissioner, Venessa Chavez-Gutierrez for pushing to better our district!  In your travels, thank the road crews as you pass and if inclined, email Venessa (vcgutierrez@torrancecountynm.org) thanking her too!
