N.M. Admin. Code § 18.27.6.6 - OBJECTIVE

A. In 2019, the New Mexico legislature enacted Laws of 2019, Chapter 205, Section 1, which created the local government transportation project fund and was compiled as Section 67-3-78 NMSA 1978.

Money in the transportation project fund is appropriated to the New Mexico department of transportation to administer the fund and to make grants to eligible entities for transportation projects.

B. The purpose of this rule is to describe the application, evaluation, award, and close out processes to be administered by the department for money appropriated to the fund by the New Mexico legislature for the development of transportation infrastructure.
