Mayor Keller Invites You to Constructive Conversations
Hello Albuquerque,
I’d like to invite you to join me and your City Councilor for “Constructive Conversations,” a new series of community meetings to foster dialogue as we work together to shape the future of the built environment in Albuquerque. Throughout the month of May, we are hosting these meetings in each City Council district to talk about infrastructure, placemaking, and the projects that improve quality of life for our families.
Please come to your district’s meeting and share your ideas and priorities for building projects in your area. These events are free and open to the public, and RSVP is required. If you are unable to attend in person, I encourage you to submit your comments and questions in our suggestion box. Check out the meeting schedule below.
Together, we can move Albuquerque forward. I hope to see you soon.
Sincerely,
Mayor Tim Keller

Happy New Year, Albuquerque.
As we embark on 2024, we are taking time to reflect on the many successes of the last year like a record-breaking Balloon Fiesta, major progress on housing policy, expanding public safety resources, and so much more. In fact, you can find out more about our City’s accomplishments here in our “Year in Review” report.
We are also taking time to refresh our efforts and focus on making Albuquerque the best city for families. In just a few weeks, we will be at the legislative session, advocating for funding and policies that can move our city forward in these endeavors.
For the first time in decades, crime stats are trending in the right direction. Plans for better access and more housing are actually being realized. That’s why we must double down and capitalize on this momentum as we are looking to partner with the State to invest in needed services.
No city has more potential than ABQ to be the best place for families. But this is only something we can achieve together. Join us in our crusade during the session and let your legislators know that it’s time to give ABQ families the attention they deserve. And if you want to take your community engagement to the next level, the City offers so many opportunities to get involved through jobs, volunteering, or even boards and commissions like the ones listed in this letter.
Let’s fulfill the promise of Albuquerque together.
Sincerely,
Mayor Tim Keller
