New Mexico United News Release
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – See the statement below from New Mexico United owner/CEO Peter Trevisani following tonight’s decision by the Albuquerque City Council to deny an appeal of a land use hearing officer’s decision regarding construction of a multipurpose facility that would serve as New Mexico United’s home stadium at Balloon Fiesta Park.
“The City Council reaffirmed the concept of building a multi-purpose stadium on this nearly 400-acre park, emphasizing that this project is not only a good fit for Albuquerque, but essential. This facility will be a significant asset to our youth, create hundreds of new jobs, both full- and part-time, and further our long-term vision for Balloon Fiesta Park. As our city expands, it is critical that we develop amenities and community hubs that support and celebrate our growth, and build a project that New Mexicans can be proud of for generations to come.”
