Contract with Mescalero Apache Tribe for fairgrounds amphitheater postponed to April

A proposed contract between Doña Ana County and the Mescalero Apache Tribe to construct a new amphitheater at the Doña Ana County Fairgrounds was discussed during the meeting and the item was postponed to an April meeting, the meeting summary reported.

The transcript uses the term "anfitriato," which appears to be a typographical or transcription error; the intended facility described is a fairgrounds amphitheater. The briefing did not include contract text, dollar amounts, procurement details, or which county department would manage the project. The transcript did not record a motion maker, seconder, or vote tally; it only stated that the item was postponed for an April meeting.

Because the item was postponed, no formal approval or funding decision was recorded in the transcript. Further details, including contract terms, construction timeline and budget, are expected to be addressed when the item returns to the commissioners for formal consideration.
