State takes over Lovington auto license office
The State Department of Motor Vehicles now runs Lovington’s auto and driver's license services from 122 N Love St. The consolidation aims to improve service and save about 90000 in annual fees. Armando Giannini leads the state program with Lovington’s Oaty Thompson as manager. The change may shift local staffing and vehicles through the new coordinated office. The city faces a 3600 loss in driver license fees but gains patrol and clerk reassignment benefits. locals are urged to support the Lea County Junior Rodeo Association parade and floats.
