Proposed Noise Ordinance and Doña Ana County Detention Center

DOÑA ANA - Today will be the first of a series of four public hearings this week regarding a few issues facing Doña Ana County residents.

The Doña Ana County Board of Commissioners is hosting the meetings at various locations to address a recently proposed noise ordinance in the county, and to provide residents an opportunity to ask questions or address concerns they might have with the Doña Ana County Detention Center.
