UPDATE: SEPTEMBER 5, 2023: Thank you to those who provided comments submitted in July through the feedback survey. Based on your input, the Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP) will be a more useful tool for all six participating communities. The Planning Team vetted the comments, integrated changes into the draft, and finalized the document with the New Mexico Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management. If you have questions or comments, please reach out to Eric Queller. Village of Ruidoso Emergency Manager. at EricQueller@ruidoso-nm.gov or 575-973-8963.

Lincoln County residents are stakeholders in the Hazard Mitigation Planning process. Your experiences with previous natural hazard events are critical to understanding our vulnerability across Lincoln County, New Mexico. As we continue with the 2023 HMP update, your voice and ideas will help us continue on a path forward.

WAYS TO CONTINUE TO BE INVOLVED;

The next opportunity to get involved with the planning process is to participate in the plan adoption public hearings anticipated for November 2023.
If you would like to review the current draft of the HMP or have questions, please get in touch with Eric Queller, the Village of Ruidoso Emergency Manager, at EricQueller@ruidoso-nm.gov or 575-973-8963.
