Summary/Background:

Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) TT-13-85 establishing the Regional Coalition of LANL Communities was approved by Town Council on April 24, 2012.  The proposed amended JPA is based on suggestions that were received from members of the communities, the public, local governments and recommendations from the New Mexico Office of the State Auditor.  The changes made to the JPA better specify the duties of the Regional Coalition of LANL Communities and is also amended to allow other LANL communities to take leadership positions with the coalition.  In addition, the purposed JPA is to keep local governments informed and to allow local governments to have a voice on what happens at LANL.
