Summary

Taos County approved a memorandum to accept maintenance and repair responsibility for new traffic-signal and intersection lighting that the New Mexico Department of Transportation will install at the NM 8/NM 240 intersection.

The commission approved a maintenance agreement tied to a New Mexico Department of Transportation installation of traffic signals and intersection lighting at NM 8 and NM 240 (San Francisco Road). Deborah, presenting the item, told commissioners Taos County will take over maintenance and repairs after the DOT places the lights.

Deborah said the county "will be resuming the maintenance and repairs after that is placed," and commissioners voted to approve the memorandum of agreement. Staff described the present agreement as a replacement/renewal of an earlier lighting agreement because DOT is replacing existing infrastructure.
