The Airport Advisory Board for the Doña Ana County International Jetport at Santa Teresa seeks three new members to serve on the seven-member body.  Applications will be accepted through 5 p.m. Friday, May 17.

Board members work closely with the Jetport Manager, County Engineer, planning director and a representative of the County Attorney’s Office to identify safety, growth, development or administration issues relevant to the airport.

Selected applicants will fulfill a three-year term which will run from July 1 through June 20, 2027. The Board serves staggered terms, meets monthly and periodically reports to the Board of County Commissioners, recommends changes or informs about upcoming challenges and opportunities in the airport’s operations or administration.
