ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – The list of candidates to manage the county has been narrowed down to three individuals. On June 18, the public can hear from the tree candidates in a special administrative meeting.
The search to replace Julie Morgas Baca as the county’s manager has been contentious, with the New Mexico Department of Justice stepping in with an investigation after an apparent lack of transparency in the selection process. But now, the county commissioners have three candidates they’re presenting to the public.
The county will host a public meeting to introduce the candidates on June 18 at 5:00 p.m. The meeting will be at the Ken Sanchez Commission Chambers at Alvarado Square. The meeting will also be broadcast on Zoom and streamed at this link on YouTube.
The top candidates (in alphabetical order) are:
Cindy Chavez
Marcos Gonzales
Joseph Lessard
You can learn more about each candidate at this link, which includes the candidates’ resumes.
