Taos County adopts public-meeting procedures and meeting-conduct policies
Summary
Commissioners approved Resolution 2025-1, adopting Open Meetings Act procedures and a schedule, and Resolution 2025-2, reaffirming meeting policies and procedures; both motions passed by unanimous roll call.
Taos County commissioners voted to adopt two procedural resolutions at their Jan. 7 meeting: Resolution 2025-1, establishing public meeting procedures pursuant to the New Mexico Open Meetings Act, and Resolution 2025-2, adopting policies and procedures for the conduct of county commission meetings.
County staff told commissioners there were no substantive changes to the policies in the packet; staff recommended keeping the regular meeting schedule on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 9 a.m. and encouraged occasional meetings in other parts of the county provided proper notice and clerk availability. Both resolutions were approved on roll-call votes recorded by the clerk.
One commissioner noted the benefit of taking meetings to northern and southern parts of the county to broaden public access. The actions formalize how meetings will be noticed and conducted going forward.
