“We’re excited about the G-Line and what it will mean to the residents in
Eldorado” said Jack Kolkmeyer, Director of the Land Use Department for Santa
Fe County “We’re encouraging residents to make time to attend these meetings.

surveys at both meetings. The results of the surveys will then be tallied and
evaluated to finalize route scheduling.
