The City of Las Cruces has been awarded millions of dollars for improvements and programs by the New Mexico Legislature.
We send a heartfelt thank you to the New Mexico Legislators who have made these projects possible.
From playgrounds and facility upgrades to technology enhancements, residents have a greatly improved quality of life!
The work in Las Cruces isn’t done yet! We could not have built the foundation we have without the dedication and support of our Legislators that have made all these changes possible.
Thank you so much to all those who have invested in Las Cruces and supported our growth.
