Carrizozo trustees adopt ordinance raising water rates
Summary
At its March 10 meeting, the Carrizozo Board of Trustees unanimously adopted Ordinance O2026-01 to increase municipal water rates; the minutes do not specify the new rates or an effective date.
The Carrizozo Board of Trustees voted unanimously March 10 to adopt Ordinance No. O2026-01, approving an increase in municipal water rates. Trustee Mital Bhakta made the motion to adopt the ordinance, and Trustee Sissy Griego seconded; the roll-call vote recorded all trustees as voting "aye."
The ordinance was entered on the meeting agenda and approved without recorded amendments or further detail in the minutes; the text of the rate changes and the ordinance’s effective date are not specified in the public minutes. Clerk/Treasurer Leann Weihbrecht presented the monthly financial report earlier in the meeting, which trustees also approved by roll-call vote.
Trustees did not discuss specific rate amounts or provide an implementation schedule in the recorded minutes. The board’s action was part of a wider consent of routine business at the meeting, which included multiple planning and zoning approvals and several resolutions. Members did not request additional public hearings or a delay on the ordinance during the session.
Next procedural steps — including publication of the ordinance text, the effective date, or any administrative implementation details — were not recorded in the minutes and therefore are not specified.
