This joint memorial requests the Governor of New Mexico to establish a task force aimed at studying the needs of frontier areas within the state. Frontier areas are defined as unincorporated, sparsely populated regions that lack access to essential services and resources, particularly affecting low-income communities of color. The task force will include representatives from various state departments and community members, and its objectives will encompass assessing current government services, available infrastructure, and potential amendments to statutes that could enhance service delivery in these areas.

The memorial emphasizes the potential benefits of implementing a community-operated infrastructure network model, which could improve service efficiency and reduce costs through shared resources. The task force is also tasked with exploring financial investments and incentives for frontier areas to adopt this model, as well as providing periodic updates to legislative committees and a final report by November 1, 2025. This initiative aims to address the systemic barriers faced by residents in frontier areas and enhance their access to necessary services.
