FAQs Live: A Municipal Q&A Series is a free, interactive community program that connects residents with City of Las Cruces departments through engaging, one-hour conversations. Each weekly session focuses on a common question residents ask—from reporting non-emergency concerns and understanding zoning to learning about trails, utilities, public transit, and more. Participants will have the opportunity to hear directly from City staff, ask questions, gain insight into City services, and better understand how local government works. Join the conversation and discover the people, programs, and services that help keep Las Cruces moving forward.

Join us from 6 -7 p.m. each Wednesday from September 2 – November 18 (with the exception of Tuesday, November 10*, in place of the Nov. 11, Veterans Day holiday when City offices will be closed). Each Session will take place at Las Cruces City Hall, 2nd Floor Conference rooms 2007 B&C.
