Voters in Sunland Park, New Mexico, will decide in November whether the city can issue up to $8.2 million in general obligation bonds. The proposal is split into three ballot questions, allocating funds for parks and recreation, a public safety complex, and roads, water, and sewer systems. City officials stated that the bonds would not raise or add to current property taxes for some homeowners.
