Governor's Mansion |
The state spent more than $100,000 last summer to renovate the
public kitchen at the governor’s mansion in Santa Fe , according to officials and purchase
orders.
While the upgrades included new countertops, floors and appliances, the
project also included a $2,700 built-in, state-of-the-art coffeemaker the
governor’s office later decided will be paid for with private donations rather
than with taxpayer funds.
The governor’s residence was built in the 1950s and
features a public wing and private wing. Republican Gov. Susana Martinez and
her husband live in the smaller, cozier private wing that has its own kitchen,
living room and bedrooms.
The public side of the mansion plays host to state
dinners honoring visiting leaders and dignitaries, as well as private events
put on by non-profit organizations.
Caterers mainly use the kitchen.
