New Mexico Statutes Chapter 73. Special Districts § 73-24-2. Findings

A. There is no mechanism for ensuring that flood and drainage planning assessments performed by flood control districts and conservancy districts are coordinated so as to ensure that conflicts in evaluation and planning for the needs of those districts are minimized and that public funds are expended in the optimal manner possible by flood control districts and conservancy districts that operate in overlapping or adjoining districts.

B. Ensuring that flood and drainage planning assessments performed by flood control districts and conservancy districts that operate in overlapping or adjoining districts will improve coordination, reduce operating costs and enhance the effectiveness of flood control districts and conservancy districts.
