Alamogordo officials vote to enter closed session for city manager interviews
Summary
At a Feb. 12 meeting, Alamogordo leaders unanimously approved the agenda and voted to recess into an executive session under 10-15-1(H)(2) NMSA 1978 to conduct city manager interviews; the transcript records the motions and votes through the decision to close the meeting to the public.
Alamogordo officials convened on Feb. 12, 2026, approved the meeting agenda unanimously and voted to move into an executive (closed) session to conduct city manager interviews under state law.
During roll call an unnamed clerk recorded the presence of Mayor Sharon McDonald, Mayor Pro Tem Josh Reardon and Commissioners Baxter Patillo, Steven Burnett, Warren Robinson and Mark Tapley, and a quorum was confirmed. An invocation and the Pledge of Allegiance followed before business began.
An unidentified speaker asked for a motion to approve the agenda. Commissioner Steven Burnett moved to approve the agenda and Commissioner Baxter Patillo seconded; the meeting record notes the motion passed 6-0. Shortly afterward the body voted to adjourn into an executive closed session “in compliance with 10-15-1(H)(2) NMSA 1978” to discuss limited personnel matters, identified in the transcript as city manager interviews. The motion to enter closed session was moved by Commissioner Warren Robinson, seconded by Commissioner Steven Burnett, and the chair put the vote; the transcript records that it passed but does not specify a vote tally.
The transcript provided ends with the vote to enter closed session. No public discussion of personnel details or outcomes of the interviews appear in the provided record.
