South Central Regional Transit District (SCRTD), Regular Meeting - July 22, 2026

The South Central Regional Transit District (SCRTD) Board held a regular meeting on July 22, 2026, under the Doña Ana County Government. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a resolution to adopt an independent transit asset management plan, reflecting the agency's transition to a direct recipient of federal funds. The board also approved an ADA fixed route and paratransit plan and authorized the release of a Request for Proposal (RFP) for paratransit service and ADA certification contracts, aiming to enhance demand-response services in specific service areas. Additionally, the board approved amendments to the fiscal year 2026 budget, including increased revenues and capital funding, and authorized the transfer of federal grants from the New Mexico Department of Transportation to SCRTD, facilitating direct management of multiple grants for capital projects such as property acquisition for the Venus construction project. These actions demonstrate SCRTD's efforts to expand and improve transit services through strategic contracting and grant management.
