ONE Albuquerque July Newsletter

Hello Albuquerque,

Let’s cut to the chase. We’re experiencing some of the hottest temperatures in our city’s history. While we’re working to provide immediate solutions through cooling centers and Operation Cool Down, we are affirming our commitment to keeping Albuquerque safe and healthy as we deal with the effects of climate change. We will continue investing in our future by building affordable and sustainable housing, reducing emissions, and making sure our green spaces are plentiful.

And it’s all part of making Albuquerque the best place for families. We are working each and every day to deliver on this promise. For instance, this evening we’re celebrating the completion of Phase I of the Los Altos Park improvements, taking a step forward in expanding access to quality outdoor spaces and recreation throughout our city. Later this week, you will also hear more about the vision for the Rail Trail which will connect our communities and provide more opportunities for Burqueños of all ages to work and play. 

As we implement solutions for the now, we’re setting solutions for the future in motion. We are grateful to everyone who drives our city forward, and we will continue working to fulfill the promise of Albuquerque.
 

Sincerely,
Mayor Tim Keller

June ONE ALBUQUERQUE Newsletter

Hello Albuquerque,

What a great start to our summer. We hope you have been taking advantage of this wonderful weather and exploring the city whether it’s hiking in the Foothills, taking a dip at a City pool, or supporting local vendors at Art Walk, the Rail Yards Market, and PrideFest. Here at the City, we’re feeling rejuvenated in our mission to make Albuquerque the best it can be. We’re ready for this new season, and we’re maintaining momentum from the 2023 State of the City.

This year’s celebration centered around “the power of us.” Every day, we have the opportunity to make a positive impact on those around us and ultimately shape the future of our city. As Burqueños, we are bound together by shared values and a deep appreciation for our home. Our collective power is evident as we continue to create and implement solutions to challenges that affect all of us like public safety, housing, and economic development. 

We appreciate everyone who joined us and shared their stories at State of the City, especially our featured storytellers – Kyle, Dawn, Marie, Vanessa, DeVante, and Tom – who made this event so special and who are continuously making our city better. You can watch their stories and the full speech here.

We are so grateful for this community and we are inspired by the story that we are writing together. Thank you to everyone who is joining us in moving Albuquerque towards its bright and beautiful future.

Sincerely,
Mayor Tim Keller
