Las Cruces Council Meeting - October 6th, 2025
The city’s minutes for this meeting were compared, sentence by sentence, against the transcript of the recording. Of 81 statements the minutes attribute to a named person, 80 were found in the recording.
Summarised — gaps worth reading. The comparison is mechanical and has no opinion about why two documents differ. A gap can be honest summarising; a mismatch can be the caption software mishearing. Both texts are shown so you can decide, and the correction form at the bottom is there for when the machine is wrong.

What the recording says
nope. I don't want to click on the wrong one. Perfect. Thank you. All right. My name is Sarah Rainey. I'm the onestop coordinator for the southwest region of America's job center. This for the Los Cusus City Council jobs of the week. We have an accountant one for the city starting at 53,000 and that position closes on the 13th. So there's only a week left. We have a transit route supervisor for the city as well starting at 49,000. That one actually closes today, so it closes
Lonnie Montgomery: a negation on the recording is missing from the minutes (“weren't”)
Says something differentBoth records carry the same sentence, but they disagree on a number or on whether it was negative. The same sentence appears in both records, but the recording contains “weren't” where the minutes have nothing — which reverses its sense. Around: “for its dispensaries we have them on nearly every corner and”.
What the minutes say
Lonnie Montgomery, Member of the Public said I am a follower of Jesus Christ. I love you guys and God loves you too. I am also a praying man so let’s pray. Most gracious and loving Father, I come before you today and ask that you guide these city councilors and increase their wisdom and discernment so that they can be the good public servants they were elected to be. In Jesus holy name I pray, Amen. And you are public servants. You serve the public, all of your constituents, sometimes what I call taxpayers and just not the ones you voted for but all of us. Sometimes you don’t treat some of us as well as you do others. For instance, you didn’t consider that the building of public housing in neighborhoods would lower the value of the houses that are there. So, some people won’t receive enough money where so they can sell their house where they couldn’t before and move to another neighborhood or I have heard of many moving to another state. On to the riff raff report. In the state we know we have poor education, and we are putting in billions of dollars and we still have poor education. And what is Las Cruces becoming famous for? For its dispensaries, we have them on nearly every corn

Belinda Robertson: the minutes negate a sentence the recording does not (“not”)
Says something differentBoth records carry the same sentence, but they disagree on a number or on whether it was negative. The same sentence appears in both records, but the minutes contain “not” where the recording has no negation. Around: “is one of the things that i am not agree but if you”.
What the minutes say
Belinda Robertson, Member of the Public said I am agreeing with the resolution. I am agreeing because for more than 200 years United States are from different immigrants from different parts of the world and the Police Department, I think they have to much work to catch criminals in the cities then go to the public places is what I think and try to see this an immigrant or if it is not an immigrant. The people came from different countries in different times for a better life and I understand but I feel sorry when they try to go to the schools or go the churches. I think that the authorities not should go to the churches or the schools to investigate if the kids are immigrants or in the churches to have immigrants. All of the immigrants that I know came to work on our Mexican and I saw immigrants that are on the streets to ask for money and put kids and they are from Honduras, Nicaragua, or another countries. This is one of the things that I am not agree but if you do the things correctly I think everybody is welcome in New Mexico and then the City of Las Cruces should help the immigrants with legal advice, help to fix the things and do the things correctly because in Hatch they ne
