Summary of Study
The League of Women Voters of New Mexico believes that government should promote and ensure responsible stewardship of our natural, human, and cultural resources, particularly in the face of growth and development.  An essential prerequisite for protecting our resources is to require comprehensive analysis of the environmental and fiscal impacts of applications before issuing a development permit.

The League believes it is important to integrate transportation into land use planning.  To reduce vehicle miles traveled, it is essential to encourage alternatives to the single occupant vehicle.  Full Position
