Ellis said he would speak with the board that governs the solid waste authority and try to do so. Hibbs emphasized that the board's decision to allow the authority to go forward with its plans doesn't mean the overall plan is approved. Trustees said they want to support the festival by doing some kind of advertising, using a fund set aside for economic development. No decisions were made on how much money trustees would spend. Scheduled a public hearing for Oct. 25 at 7 p.m. at the town hall to discuss Estancia's Comprehensive Plan and Infrastructure Capital Improvements Plan.
Trustees intend to update the plans and want to hear from residents about projects they support.
The public is encouraged to attend.
