[Lwvcnmtopics] Email sent to NM PRC Chair after today's meeting

[George Richmond]

A) PRC Open Positions

Why so many open positions?  Did people retire? *(there are over a dozen 
open positions which means the NM PRC is not operating as it could)*

Why does the PRC advertise for posts filled by State Personnel office?  
Should the Personnel Office do the recruiting for you?

Are your salaries competitive with say, TX, OK, AZ, CO?  When was the 
last time the salaries were reviewed and updated?

B) Discussion of Pending Legislative Matters.

I was surprised that your staff had not submitted more information to 
the commissioners earlier.  ( *Contacts with the NM Legislature could be 
handled much better.)*

Aa a Member League of Women Voters, our Action team is involved all the 
time on advising where our bills of interest stand before any committee 
and action to take.

I wonder if the views of the commission are being heard by members of 
the Legislature.

C) Temporary Moratorium on Utility Disconnections.(*Currently utilities, 
gas/electric, have plans to allow clients hurt by the Pandemic to not 
pay their bills currently, if they create repayment plans.)
*
I concur with your actions and suggest that the PRC publish and Op Ed in 
the ABQ Journal.

Thank you

George Richmond
