PRESENTATIONS

1. Code Compliance Month Proclamation. (Sharon McDonald, Mayor)
Mayor McDonald read a proclamation recognizing code enforcement officers for their dedication to public health,
safety, property preservation, and neighborhood standards. She proclaimed October 2026 as Code Compliance
Month in Alamogordo and encouraged all citizens to bring and maintain their properties in compliance with city codes.
PUBLIC COMMENT

1. Tamara Hansen, president of AFSCME Local 3818, provided a golf course update from the union perspective.
She reported that the union filed a step-two grievance on September 2 regarding RFP 2026-005 for the golf course
contract and had met with the city manager, but was still awaiting a resolution. She noted that the RFP was listed on
the agenda under New Business. She also stated that she notified City Manager Stockwell twice about contractor
damage to the course, including newly installed irrigation rotors, and commended the maintenance staff for
immediately identifying and reporting the issue.
2. Patricia McFarland, a retired teacher speaking regarding 802 Juniper Drive, stated that she and her husband had
to move out of their home of 48 1/2 years due to structural damage caused by ground movement. She stated she
had brought this to the city many times. She explained that city developments like Sun Edition and Granada Hills
added weight to the plain, causing structural twisting that would cost $35,000 to $50,000 or more to fix. The city
wanted tax revenue and, as a result, allowed homes to be destroyed.

3. Lori Armstrong, chair of the Parks and Recreation Board, urged the Commission to preserve full public access to
Bonito Lake for fishing, family recreation, and mental well-being. She also requested that the Parks and Recreation
Board be briefed earlier in the planning stages of recreation policies before items reach the Commission for a final
vote.
4. Chuck Andreas spoke regarding Flock Safety surveillance cameras, raising Fourth Amendment and privacy
concerns. He stated he supported law enforcement tools but warned against compromising constitutional rights,
noting that police departments in Minnesota, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Ohio, and Florida were ordering the removal of
Flock cameras due to rising costs, privacy concerns, and a lack of public trust. He offered to share a PowerPoint
presentation with the Commission.
5. Enrique Telles spoke against the closure of Bonito Lake, calling it one of the few local mountain fishing and retreat
spots available to residents. He suggested that any money intended for fencing the lake would be better spent on
repairing city streets in Alamogordo.
6. Rebecca Stewart Thorp, representing PNM Customers United, raised concerns regarding excessive utility bills
and disconnect notices affecting families, including those with newborns or on fixed incomes. She requested the City
Commission's support as community members present their concerns to the New Mexico Public Regulation
Commission (PRC), when it comes to the City next Tuesday.
7. Jeannie Nichols spoke regarding PNM electric bills and meter concerns. She stated her bill quadrupled despite
visual meter checks and encouraged residents to bring their bills and stories to the upcoming PRC meeting.
8. Kim Murillo reminded that on September 1st, City Manager Stockwell made a public commitment to keep Bonito
Lake open for at least six months and urged leadership to honor its word. She also spoke on a pending agenda item
to vote on whether to discipline Commissioner Hernandez for public comments, that the body was disciplining those
who speak out rather than maintaining fairness and justice.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS

8. Commission Direction on Bonito Lake Access and Operation. (Robert Stockwell, City Manager)
City Manager Stockwell reported on meetings with officials from Otero County, Lincoln County, Ruidoso, and Ruidoso
Downs. There is great interest in a joint effort on the part of Lincoln County to enter into discussions of what can be
done to accomplish both things that people recognize as important. As a result of the Commission making a direct
call tonight, scheduling meetings with Lincoln County and Ruidoso to begin working through the concerns, with the
goal of bringing a report back to the Commission within six months on what might be possible. and funding solutions
for Bonito Lake to balance water protection with public recreation. He also noted discussions with state senators, the
State Secretary, and staff from the tourism and parks departments.
He presented three recommendations based on the positive interactions that he has had: (1) that the Commission
reiterates that the highest priority of the citizens of Alamogordo is that Bonito Lake be maintained first as the source
of water for the City of Alamogordo and Holloman Air Force Base, with whom they are partners on the water supply.
That all reasonable actions will be taken to ensure the lake is protected from current and future debris flows and that
the lake and the surrounding watersheds are secondary to the interest of the City and Holloman Air Force Base in

September 22, 2026

providing a safe and reliable source of water; (2) The City Manager will continue to make the lake available for fishing
in line with the current Open Gate agreement with the State, and complete the immediate improvements to the lake
access to minimize any hazards and undertake additional work and designs on access when the appropriated state
funding becomes available; and (3) The City will continue examining long-term options with the future of the lake in
concert the State, Lincoln County, Ruidoso, Ruidoso Downs, and other stakeholders with the goal of reporting back
to the Commission with a framework for the future within six months.
Commissioner Robinson asked for an update on recent rains and their impact on the lake. City Manager Stockwell
reported that recent detention basins successfully captured a substantial amount of debris that would have otherwise
entered the lake, but noted that standing burned trees continue to fall, making ongoing debris retention critical. So,
the design they are looking at is to ensure that any recreation up there does not interfere with their ability to stop
debris from reaching the lake.
Commissioner Burnett asked if staff had reached out to Holloman Air Force Base regarding their participation. City
Manager Stockwell confirmed ongoing communication with them, noting their primary focus is ensuring access to
the water supply they invested in.
The Commission reached a consensus to proceed with the outlined recommendations.

NEW BUSINESS

9. Consider, and act upon, the award of a contract to Maxim Golf Solutions, LLC, pursuant to RFP 2026-005:
Golf Course Operations, Management, and Maintenance Services, and authorize the City Manager to finalize
and execute the agreement for the operation and management of the Desert Lakes Golf Course pro shop,
clubhouse, restaurant, and golf course maintenance operations. (Heather Casebolt, Interim Parks and
Recreation Director, and Evelyn Huff, Finance Director)
Parks and Recreation Director Casebolt presented the evaluation committee's recommendation to award the golf
course operation, maintenance, financial management, revenue generation, programming, community engagement,
and accessibility. She reported that two proposals were received and scored by a five-member evaluation committee
(Parks and Recreation Director Casebolt, Finance Director Huff, Community Development Director Dowhanik-Baron,
Utilities Director Nunnelley, and City Manager Stockwell). Maxim received the highest aggregate score of 81.6 and
scored the highest in each of the five evaluation categories, with its strongest results in golf course operations and
maintenance.
Mayor McDonald asked if there was a limit or threshold for the subsidy the city provides. City Manager Stockwell
explained that the subsidy will be an annual budget decision made by the Commission based on actual revenues
and contracted expenses, noting that historical subsidies averaged roughly $260,000 per year and that the new
contract will make subsidies far more predictable. Mayor McDonald asked how much revenue the recent fee increase
would generate. City Manager Stockwell estimated the fee increase would raise revenues by approximately $60,000
per year.
Commissioner Burnett asked how city equipment will be integrated into the contract. City Manager Stockwell stated
that Maxim will be responsible for operating and maintaining the city's allocated equipment (mowers, tools, carts),
while the city remains responsible for replacing worn-out heavy capital equipment.
Commissioner Burnett asked when the new fleet of golf carts is expected to arrive. Parks and Recreation Director
Casebolt said Yamaha anticipated delivery between mid-October and mid-November for 45 golf carts and 7 or 8
utility vehicles purchased through source contracting with Yamaha.
Commissioner Burnett moved to Approve.
Commissioner Pattillo seconded the motion.
Motion Passed with a vote of 6-0-1. Commissioner Al Hernandez abstained from voting.

10. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Code of Conduct Complaint Against Commissioner Alfonso
Hernandez Pursuant to Alamogordo Municipal Code § 2-03-570(b)(4)(h), Including whether to take further
action following the Preliminary Review Committee's findings. (Robert Stockwell, City Manager)

Commissioner Hernandez left the Commission Chambers before any discussion.
City Manager Stockwell explained that a Code of Conduct complaint filed under Section 2.03.570 was reviewed by
legal counsel and referred to a preliminary review committee consisting of the three senior commissioners, who each
individually reviewed the complaint and were called upon to make a finding of either founded or unfounded on each
of the allegations that were made. Two of the three senior commissioners found the allegations unfounded, while
one found them founded. As a result, the Municipal Code requires the full Commission to consider whether to take
further action on the complaint. He explained that without discussing the merits of the complaint, the actions of the
Commission would be to make a motion to take further action on the code of conduct complaint. If the motion passes,
then the Commission would schedule an open hearing at a subsequent city commission meeting. If the motion does
not pass, which would require five votes, the matter is closed. He recommended that a commissioner make the
motion for the commission to take further action on the complaint.
Commissioner Pattillo moved to take further action on the complaint.
Commissioner Robinson seconded the motion.
Motion Failed with a vote of 2-4-0 (Mayor McDonald and Commissioner Robinson voted aye; Mayor Pro-Tem
Rardin, Commissioners Burnett, Tapley, and Pattillo voted nay. Commissioner Hernandez remained absent
from the room and did not vote.
As the motion failed to achieve the necessary votes, the matter was closed.

ADJOURNMENT

Submitted By: Robert Stockwell

Subject: Consider, and act upon, allocating the remaining LEDA Funds. (Robert Stockwell, City Manager)

Fiscal Impact:
Amount Budgeted:
Fund:
Additional Fiscal Impact:

Recommendation:
1. Direct the City Manager to work in concert with the Chamber of Commerce and the Sacramento
Mountains Foundation to develop a joint project to aggressively work on the cleanup—and where
appropriate—the demolition of dilapidated, unsightly, and deteriorating buildings, and allocate the
remaining LEDA funds to this project. Emphasis should be placed on White Sands Boulevard, with
secondary emphasis on East Tenth Street and East First Street as well as residential properties
adjacent to the commercial zones of the City. Or;
2. Award the remaining LEDA funds to Pymo Hotel and Bistro.

Background: The stated purpose of the LEDA program was to stimulate economic development in
Alamogordo involving the creation of or expansion of businesses. The goals were creating jobs and
increasing tax revenues while enhancing the livability of our city. Generally speaking, projects funded by
LEDA in Alamogordo have achieved limited success in meeting the goals, and sustained job creation and
revenue growth has been minimal.
Now that the GRT funding LEDA has been rededicated, we have approximately $1,000,000 in remaining
funds that can be allocated to economic development. We have several applications for these remaining
funds including the following (in alphabetical order):
ALAMOGORDO COUNTER-UAS TRAINING AND INTEGRATION CENTER (ACUASTIC)– Proposes to
create a manufacturing, integration and training business focused on small aerial systems, unmanned
vehicles and counter UAS instruction. They are proposing a phased project that would include first phase
funding of $95,000 for temporary facilities and site improvements to begin marketing their concept
nationally. This would be followed by second phase funding of up to $250,000 if the first phase proves to
demonstrate interest in their concept. Additional funding would be based upon eligible costs under LEDA
regulations. Job creation is difficult to project since the first phase is based upon them using the proposers
and outside entities to do the initial set up and training.

Analysis – This proposal is the most speculative and does not demonstrate actual experience, within the
proposed team, to bring the concept into fruition.
COTTONWOOD CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP DAYCARE – Proposes to create a day care center at their
current location with a projected annual payroll of $300,000.00 for 25 jobs. Wages would be $12.00 per
hour for support staff and up to $25.00 per hour for teachers and administrators. Funding request
$542,000.00
Analysis – The proposed day care center would not produce living wage jobs as proposed. The proposal
is based upon a perceived increase in demand for child daycare services given recent action by the State
to institute universal childcare. At this point, there is no established process for this to be implemented.
Our current minimal growth in population does not point to increased demand.
GOLDEN HEARTS HOME CARE– Propose to purchase and renovate their current Alamogordo facility to
establish a permanent headquarters for Caregiver and CAN Training to grow their home care team and
create new jobs locally. They would retain 50 current jobs and add 15 full-time equivalents with current
wages of $14.50 – $17.00 per hour increasing to $20.00 – $23.00 per hour. Funding request $650,000.00
Analysis – The proposal includes mostly part-time non-living wage jobs. It is based upon a perceived
increase in demand for their services that does not align with our minimal growth in population.
PYMO BISTRO & HOTEL – Proposes to complete the renovation of the historic Avis Building to include a
boutique bed and breakfast, full-service bar and bistro, onsite brewing and canning operations, and
rooftop patios for dining, events and community gathering. They would add full-time and part-time jobs in
their various operations with average wages ranging from $13.00 - $36.00 per hour. They project a payroll
of $435,000 for the first year of operation increasing to over $800,000 in the fifth year of operation.
Funding request — $1,300,000.00
XTREME AMPLITUDE – Proposes to expand their offering of various programs of physical fitness, cheer,
gymnastics, and other athletic programs by purchasing and renovating a building. They would increase the
current part-time employment and offer various competitive events that would generate visitors to
Alamogordo for the participants and their families. They would add part-time instructors and staff with
wages from $13.00 — $15.00 per hour. They project increasing their gross revenue from $300,000
annually to $400,000 annually. Funding request — $1,000,000.00.
Analysis – The proposal only creates part-time jobs at below living wages. The speculative increase in
events that would attract families from beyond our immediate region to come to Alamogordo, stay
overnight, and patronize local restaurants and businesses is the only potentially significant economic
benefit identified.

Analysis – Of all the proposals, this one has the most likely positive impact on GRT for the city. They
have already invested substantially in improvements to the building and a secondary benefit to the
proposal would be the aesthetic improvement to the entry intersection of the recent New York Avenue
project. Still, the bulk of the jobs created fall below a living wage.
CONCLUSION: While the proposals all point to adding jobs, the majority of the proposed jobs are below a
living wage in Alamogordo. Only the Pymo proposal would have a significant impact on GRT.
In multiple meetings of various Alamogordo stakeholders discussing the economic future of Alamogordo,
the common theme and concern raised is the overall image of Alamogordo.
The recurring answer to why people and businesses are reluctant to invest in Alamogordo is that our
major commercial roadway – White Sands Boulevard – presents us as a rundown city where little is
happening to encourage development.

While, we have pockets of quality development. The problem is that these pockets are separated by areas
of dilapidated occupied and/or abandoned buildings, outdated signs and/or signs where businesses and
buildings no longer exist. Much of this deterioration dates back decades. These same conditions extend
up Tenth Street and First Street.
Given the fact that the remaining LEDA funds will not be replenished, I feel it is important that they be
spent addressing the deteriorated conditions that are slowing or blocking potential development rather
than funding any of the proposed projects.
The Sacramento Mountains Foundation has committed to funding efforts to address these conditions in
concert with the city. By leveraging the remaining $1 million LEDA funds with the Foundation’s private
funding we can put together a coalition that would allow for cleanups and demolition on a far greater scale
than has been possible with public funding
Foundation funding is not limited by the same constraints as public monies when spending fon privately
owned properties. This has the potential to free up City funds to address those efforts requiring stringent
enforcement of codes and regulations. These types of expenditures are allowed for LEDA funds.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Direct the City Manager to work in concert with the Chamber of Commerce and the Sacramento
Mountains Foundation to develop a joint project to aggressively work on the cleanup—and where
appropriate—the demolition of dilapidated, unsightly, and deteriorating buildings, and allocate the
remaining LEDA funds to this project. Emphasis should be placed on White Sands Boulevard, with
secondary emphasis on East Tenth Street and East First Street as well as residential properties
adjacent to the commercial zones of the City. Or;
2. Award the remaining LEDA funds to Pymo Hotel and Bistro.
