Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

Artesia MainStreet, Inc. was organized to encourage, foster and stimulate the preservation and economic development of historic downtown Artesia, NM.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Restoration and preservation of historic downtown, stimulation of economically viable business environment in downtown area, and providing historic and cultural resources to residents and visitors.

  • First Street Greenway-Construction & Maintenance: Eleven acres of land has been improved with approximately 500 trees and ornamental bushes and grass along north Highway 285. This main entry into Artesia, NM is paralleled by a railway line, a large industrial complex, a metal scrap yard and a housing development. In order to present a more positive first impression for visitors, Artesia MainStreet, Inc. has created a beautiful screen along this main thoroughfare to greet visitors and invite them into our town. Artesia MainStreet is responsible for maintenance of the grounds including the sprinkler system and replacement of landscape. Maintenance and repairs make up these expenses.

    Expenses $83,270

  • Withheld by Nonprofiteer: this text may name a private individual.

    Expenses $343,196

  • Downtown Maintenance: Artesia, NM area has a population of approximately 15,000 citizens. The downtown area encompasses 40 city blocks and includes the Derrick Floor oilfield monument and the Oilpatch Plaza with its grounds and fountain. There are 4 additional bronze monuments in the downtown area that are part of the History in Bronze series: Sallie Chisum, known as the First Lady of Artesia, Trail Boss and the Vaquero, bringing to life the turn of the century cowboys of the Southwest and the Cattle Rustler, who may have been a contemporary of the famed Billy the Kid. All of the bronzes require periodic waxing and patina touch-ups and the brickwork and landscaping require upkeep. Artesia's Heritage Plaza and Walkway is a beautiful centerpiece in the Downtown District containing a 7-fountain river depicting the culture of our area, represented in handmade ceramic tiles. The walls of the Walkway holds a renovated historic mural depicting our history, the textured floor is an original mural and the entire area is shaded with decorative trees and provides seating areas to encourage visitors to stay and enjoy. Artesia MainStreet is also responsible for maintenance of the grounds surrounding the Artesia Public Library located in the Downtown District as well as the bronze sculpture located in the roundabout at its corner. AMS takes applications for inclusion on the Baish Veterans' Park Wall of Honor. An engraving fee is collected from each applicant. Once the application period is closed, the panel is removed and transported to have the new veterans' names and service information professionally engraved onto the panel. The panel is then transported back and re-installed. Maintenance, repairs, utilities and insurance make up these expenses.

    Expenses $136,734

  • Facade Improvement: work done on a building on Main Street to improve the appearance and condition of the building.

    Expenses $13,264

As filed on the 2025 return. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
