Questa council accepts wastewater funding and unanimously awards three contracts
Summary
At its Sept. 24 meeting the Village of Questa Council approved Resolution 2024-22 to accept Capital Appropriations funds for a wastewater treatment facility and unanimously approved contract awards for an embargo repair, a school fencing project and business park fencing.
The Village of Questa Council on Sept. 24 approved Resolution 2024-22 to accept Capital Appropriations funds for a wastewater treatment facility and unanimously awarded three contractor contracts for local infrastructure projects.
Resolution and contracts passed: The council recorded a motion by Councilwoman Katrina Gonzales to approve Resolution 2024-22 accepting Capital Appropriations funds for the wastewater treatment facility; Councilwoman Louise Gallegos seconded the motion. The minutes record roll-call votes as "YES" from Councilor Jason Gonzalez, Councilwoman Louise Gallegos and Councilwoman Katrina Gonzales; the motion carried.
Contract awards: The council unanimously approved three contractor recommendations: Andamo Sanchez Trucking & Excavation for the Embargo Collapse Repair (motion by Councilwoman Louise Gallegos, second by Councilwoman Katrina Gonzales); RLC Services DBA Lynns Landscaping and Fencing for the QISD fencing project (motion by Councilwoman Katrina Gonzales, second by Councilwoman Louise Gallegos); and Apache Construction Co., Inc. DBA Valley Fence Company for the Business Park fencing project (motion by Councilwoman Louise Gallegos, second by Councilwoman Katrina Gonzales). Each motion was recorded as passing on a roll-call vote in which Councilor Jason Gonzalez and Councilwomen Louise Gallegos and Katrina Gonzales voted yes.
What the record shows and what is not specified: The council minutes list the acceptance of funding and the contractor awards but do not specify dollar amounts, contract terms, project schedules or departmental assignees; those details were not included in the meeting record. The minutes also contain an internal attendance inconsistency: Clerk Valerie Vigil's roll-call lines list Councilor Brent Jaramillo both as present and later as absent. The vote records cited above reflect only the three named voting members in the minutes.
Procedure and next steps: The council took recorded motions and roll-call votes for each action item; the minutes do not include subsequent implementation steps or staff assignments. Members and staff will need to provide contract documents, funding details and implementation schedules at a later meeting or in staff reports for public review.
Provenance: Primary meeting record: Village of Questa regular council meeting minutes, Sept. 24, 2024 (see minutes entries for Action Items A–D).
