The committee traveled to Ruidoso, Mescalero, Cimarron, Truth or Consequences, Hernandez and Chama; held a joint meeting with the Mortgage Finance Authority Act Oversight Committee in Santa Teresa; and held two meetings in Santa Fe. The ERDC's focus for the 2017 interim was on issues that have the potential to spur and support economic development in the state. As in previous years, the committee heard presentations on broadband deployment and ways that the state and telecommunications carriers are furthering the goal of full deployment. Health care in rural communities was another topic that received much attention, as was the development and regulation of renewable energy industries. Some other topics explored by the committee included legalization of recreational cannabis, economic contributions of the film industry, the value-added agriculture industry and the economic opportunities and challenges within the Dona Ana County-Mexico border region. Over the interim, the committee considered methods to improve the efficiency of construction permitting and inspection processes and explored ideas for supporting in-state industries and smaller businesses through the Procurement Code. The committee also heard about opportunities for legal reform to foster more predictability for businesses in assessing potential legal liabilities.

The healthcare industry is the fastest growing sector of New Mexico’s economy; since 2010, two-thirds of new jobs added in our state have been in the healthcare industry and related fields, and this trend is expected to continue over the next decade. Meanwhile, communities across New Mexico struggle with poverty, resulting from low-levels of education and a lack of trained professionals. New Mexico community colleges are uniquely positioned to address this skills gap and in the past four years, the SUN PATH consortium has made notable progress toward this end. This report highlights the impact SUN PATH has had and systemic changes that have shown positive results.
