The Local Economic Development Act, or LEDA, is a fund designed to help New Mexico businesses grow. Local, San Juan County businesses, have participated in this program over the years, receiving funding for infrastructure improvements that will help them expand and employ more people.
"Next week, Economic Development Secretary Jon Barela and his team will be in [Farmington] to discuss Local Economic Development Act (LEDA) policies to ensure the best use of state dollars to promote job creation tied to infrastructure. The town halls are open to the public but we encourage economic development professionals, local governments and businesses who are involved in economic development issues to participate. Input gathered from the town halls will help formulate LEDA policies for the upcoming year and beyond," says Theresa Valera, Director of the state Economic Development Division.
