The Las Cruces Police Department is hosting a Town Hall meeting on July 29 featuring interactive sessions with Mayor Eric Enriquez and all six City Councilors.

The Town Hall meeting will be held at 6 p.m. Wednesday, July 29, 2026, in three conference rooms on the second floor, north wing, of City Hall, 700 N. Main St. The meeting is anticipated to last about two hours.

Parking is available on the west side of City Hall and in the parking garage on the east side, accessible from Campo Street.

Residents and members of the business community will be encouraged to sit at the table of their council district and participate in an interactive small-group discussion on matters of public safety. Chief Jeremy Story, LCPD deputy chiefs, and other police department staff will also be available to help answer questions and hear ideas from participants.

“These town hall meetings are important for our city and for us as a department,” said Chief Jeremy Story. “We grow and become better as a community when we come together, share concerns and ideas, and learn from each other.”

Chief Story will open the town hall meeting with news and a brief overview of year-to-date crime statistics. Attendees will be encouraged to select one of the seven breakout sessions – likely their council district or the city-wide table – and participate in an open, respectful dialogue with other participants.

City Council:
District 1: Cassie McClure
District 2: Bill Mattiace
District 3: Michael Harris
District 4: Johana Bencomo
District 5: Becky Corran
District 6: John Muñoz
Mayor: Eric Enriquez

The meeting will not be televised or livestreamed. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early.
