Community Safety & Access to City Services Survey

The City of Albuquerque's Safer Community Places Ordinance (O-26-15) establishes clear rules to protect privacy, support public safety, and ensure residents can safely access City services, healthcare facilities, schools, businesses, and other essential community spaces. The ordinance explains the responsibilities of City facilities and certain private businesses, including requirements for workplace signage, employee notifications during federal immigration inspections, and protections for private areas and records that cannot be voluntarily accessed for civil immigration enforcement without a judicial warrant. By creating consistent standards across Albuquerque, the ordinance helps residents, employees, businesses, and visitors understand their rights and responsibilities while keeping community spaces safe, welcoming, and focused on serving the public.
