Thank you to everyone who took time out of their day to come out to help. And thank you, to Senator Pope and Representative Gurrola for coming to help out as well!
Lastly, thank you to Dion's in Taylor Ranch for providing lunch...it is very much appreciated.
It was great to see the community come together once again!

Creighton Park
A Visit to the Capitol​
​
​​On Friday, February 14, 2025, your TRNA Vice President Jarred Langhals and his family made a trip to the Capitol to meet with legislators to do some reminding about Creighton Park. They went armed with letters from neighbors and drawings from neighborhood children to distribute.
Creighton Park Update
01.15.25
​
Creighton Park is a vacant plot of city-owned property at the SE corner of Taylor Ranch Road and Montano Road.
It has been designated and zoned as a park for a very long time but never received budgetary priority until TRNA advocacy. Rather than being a local dumping area with sidewalks that must be avoided due to overgrowth, we will be turning this into an area for neighbors and families to enjoy for decades to come. This is an important piece of land for residents in the area that will allow children and families access to recreation without crossing the major roadways of Coors/Montano.
​
2024 was a huge year for getting the Creighton Park effort kicked off! We accomplished the following:
• Creighton Park was added to the ABQ Capital Outlay projects Sep 2023
• In Jan ‘24, the city officially added Creighton Park as a NM State legislative outlay project (Mayor priority!)
• Thanks to our local state representatives, we raised $570,000 for our park!
• Highlighted as “Big Win” by Mayor Keller during city Constructive Conversations.
• The site has been surveyed and is currently marked up for the future planning/development of this park.
The next phase of the planning process will involve public input on how this park will be developed. The city will reach out to TRNA to get meetings scheduled, so become a member today to ensure you get the notices to be a part of it! If you prefer to just send TRNA an email with your thoughts (president@trna.org), we will collect them to include in the planning process for the city to consider. If you really want to get involved to help this project more than that, please let us know that too! We are hopeful by the end of 2026 to see this park open to the public as it was designated to be!

Crime Prevention Article​​​
​​​​
The Albuquerque Police Department Northwest Area Command that includes Taylor Ranch has one of the lowest crime rates in Albuquerque and we must keep it that way. The APD website has all kinds of crime prevention tips:
​
Crime Prevention & Safety — City of Albuquerque
​
In the Winter months, drivers like to warm up their cars by leaving them running. Never leave a vehicle running unattended. This is an open invitation for a thief who maybe passing by. Another good tip is to ensure landscaping is trimmed away from doors and windows to eliminate hiding places.
Pete Gelabert is the crime prevention specialist for the NW Area Command. Upon request, he will visit your home to do a security inspection and offer friendly advice. Pete is also the go-to person in forming a Neighborhood Watch on your block or street. The Neighborhood Watch is neighbors organized to look out for each other. For more information visit: Starting a Neighborhood Watch — City of Albuquerque. Pete can be reached at 505.768.4850.
Another good resource is the Next Door social media app at https://nextdoor.com/. In addition to posts for lost pets and stuff for sale, neighbors post suspicious activity and even videos of crimes in progress. Neighbors can corroborate and offer advice in the comments section.
