The Sunland Park Public Works Department’s mission encompasses the following activities:

• Street Division: The primary function of the Sunland Park Streets Division is to maintain City streets, alleys, trails, and drainage systems with a focus on avoiding deterioration through timely maintenance. Our tasks include street clean-ups, maintaining city streetlights, trimming trees and mowing on City rights of ways and maintaining City street name signs, stop signs, speed limit signs, and other information signage.

• Parks Division: It is the goal of Public Works staff assigned to the Parks Division to provide clean and safe parks and recreational services, while continually striving to improve upon existing public parks and facilities. The Division partners with the community to promote civic involvement and a strong sense of community pride.

• Clean Up Events: Every year the City of Sunland Park hosts multiple clean up events to preserve and beautify our wonderful community. With help from both the New Mexico Clean and Beautiful Grant and the Recycling and Illegal Dumping (RAID) Grant, these events are fiscally possible. During these events, activities consist of litter collection as well as a tire abatement program. All events are held at the Sports Complex located at 4700 McNutt Road, Santa Teresa, NM 88008.

  • We are always looking for volunteers to join in our efforts to make Sunland Park beautiful. To join in on the fun, please email the Public works Director at Hector.Rangel@Sunlandpark-Nm.Gov or call at 575-589-3631 x 1010.
