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
