I can only be in one place at one time so I ask for your help on Tuesday, November 2.

Otero County Commission, District 1 is composed of 12 precincts and we need people at every precinct from 7 am to closing. We call it "Adopt a Precinct". For details on how you can help the cause, contact me at 575-921-1760. A couple of hours is a good investment in good local government.

At the Regular Otero County Commission meeting last night, the Commission voted to adopt Ordinance 10-06. You may read the ordinance at http://www.co.otero.nm.us/

The proposed new Otero County Organizational Chart was met with much discussion and ultimately sent back to the manager for revisions.

The paving for the parking lot at 1104 White Sands Blvd, "County Annex", former Firestone building, is estimated between $90,000 - $138,000.

The Public Safety Access Point - SO Dispatch needs an additional $150,000 by Chairman Moore's guestimate.

The whole shebang can be viewed at Alamogordo Live and it wasn't pretty. http://www.alamogordolive.net/

Alamogordo Daily News Endorses Janet White 10/16/2010:

"In the race for Otero County Commission District 1, we like independent candidate Janet White over her two challengers, Tommie Herrell and LC Marshall.

White, who has attended every county commission meeting for the last four years, has extensive knowledge of proceedings and takes it upon herself to investigate all possible angles to every issue. She also has shown an interest in representing citizens in Chaparral, who have long been overlooked and crave representation. We believe White can - and will - do that."

The Alamogordo Daily News has endorsed Janet White as its pick for Otero County Commission, Dist.1. We will provide a link when available.

We mailed 4,000 postcards to active voters in the district this week. The postcard tells how to vote for Janet White, Independent.

I continue to go door to door and my map is filling in with yellow highlighter on streets I have covered. I will do this until November 1. (I do not knock on doors on Sundays for obvious reasons.)

Don't forget the Otero County Commission Regular Meeting Thursday, Oct. 21. If you cannot attend, you can watch it live or archived on AlamogordoLive. The new FEMA Flood Map Ordinance will again be the subject of a public hearing as well as other agenda items.
