Town Commission
The Governing Body of the Town of Edgewood consists of five Commissioners, which includes a Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem. The Commissioners are elected by the Citizens of Edgewood on a nonpartisan basis. The Governing Body holds Executive, Legislative, and Quasi-Judicial powers. The Commissioners appoint a Town Manager, who is the Chief Administrative Officer of the town and works under the delegated authority of the Commission to manage the daily operations and other assigned tasks of the town. Edgewood has five (5) Commission Districts, but regardless of each Commissioner's district of residence, all Commissioners serve at-large for the entire community.
Town Meetings
Beginning in March 2023, Town Meetings will be held on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at the Town Hall Commission Chambers at 6:30 PM. Citizens are encouraged to attend these meetings to keep informed of town issues and to provide input.
In addition to attending in person at 171-A NM Highway 344 (formerly the north building of Edgewood Elementary School), Citizens can view on the live stream at the Town of Edgewood Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TownOfEdgewoodNM.
