Summary

The Mesilla Valley MPO Technical Advisory Committee approved its agenda and February 5 minutes, was reminded of the March 20 PFF deadline for the TPF call for projects, and was told the executive committee's draft bylaws will be posted as part of the governing board packet ahead of TAC discussion in May and possible adoption in June.

At the March 5 Mesilla Valley MPO Technical Advisory Committee meeting, members approved the agenda and the February 5 minutes and heard routine jurisdictional updates.

Chair Michael Garza opened the meeting and asked for any agenda changes; Sarah Gonzales moved to approve the agenda "as written," and the committee approved it without recorded opposition. Harold Buck moved to approve the February 5 minutes and Ben Serrano seconded; the minutes were approved with no opposition.

MPO staff reminded members of an active TPF call for projects and corrected an earlier misstatement of the project feasibility form (PFF) deadline: "It's March 20, not March 30," staff said, adding that a meeting between applying jurisdictions and NMDOT is scheduled for March 31.

On governance, MPO staff said the executive committee has completed work on a draft of proposed bylaws. "The first presentation about the new bylaws is going to be at next week's governing board meeting," staff said, and TAC discussion is anticipated in May with the governing board targeted to adopt the bylaws in June.

Dof1a Ana County staff reported hiring an engineering supervisor, Victor Morales, who is expected to start on the 16th and attend upcoming TAC meetings. Other members provided project updates, including University Avenue ADA and sidewalk work and multimodal improvements with lane closures and detours.

The meeting concluded after an adjournment motion carried with no recorded opposition.
