STATEWIDE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS

SB 346 allocates $5 million in state funds for capital improvements across New Mexico during fiscal years 2025-2026. It directly affects local governments and communities by funding specific projects like a new fire truck in Albuquerque (Bernalillo County), critical incident response vehicles for Las Cruces police (Dona Ana County), career technical education equipment for Lovington schools, and senior meal programs in Grant/Hidalgo/Luna counties. The bill provides targeted funding for community needs including youth programs, public safety equipment, fire stations, and educational resources without creating new laws or policies.
