PORTALES As the city grapples with New Mexico’s legalization of recreational marijuana use, the city council on Thursday gave a first acknowledgement of a proposed ordinance that would regulate the smoking of tobacco and marijuana in the city.
The council decided to schedule a public workshop on the ordinance for its Aug. 3 meeting, and a public hearing and final decision on the proposed ordinance at its Aug. 17 session.
A notice of the proposed ordinance was expected to be published today in The News, City Clerk Joan Martinez-Terry said, fulfilling another requirement before an ordinance can become effective.

Maine needs a not-for-profit consumer-owned utility
The Maine Legislature should enact and Gov. Mills should sign LD 1708, an Act to Create the Pine Tree Power Company. This bi-partisan measure would allow Mainers to vote in November to decide whether or not to replace CMP and Versant with a not-for-profit consumer-owned utility (COU), owned by Mainers and governed by an elected, nonpartisan board of directors. It would be financed by low-interest bonds costing three percent or less, a fraction of what utilities like CMP or Versant are charged. Under a COU, rate payers would save an estimated $9 billion dollars over 30 years.
