An Observer editorial urges residents to follow the emergency ordinance banning open fires and fireworks in unincorporated areas through much of summer. It notes 74 wildland fires this year consuming about 2500 acres and cites Corrales evacuations as a reminder of human caused fire dangers.
The Rio Rancho Observer invites guest opinions and letters to the editor with length limits of 500 and 300 words, respectively. Submissions must include the author’s name, city, and a verification phone number, with an option for editorial copy edits and publication in print or digital form.
A reader criticizes city planning for the June traffic snarl on NM 528 north of Southern, noting a single right-lane closure worsened backups. The letter advocates better timing, more signs, and comparison to Corrales where flagmen directed traffic, urging city officials to prevent similar delays that impede commerce.
City actions foretell three tax hikes in six months, a preexisting state sales tax, a new quarter cent tax, and the Bush era tax cuts expiring January 1. Residents fear reduced buying power in 2011 and critique arena management after a sparsely attended Alegria show at Santa Ana Star Center.
In Santa Fe the 2010 New Mexico gubernatorial race centers on small contentious topics rather than big policy shifts. The column weighs hiring freezes, state budgets, public education, university funding, and how retirees with pensions affect the budget, noting debates over nepotism and political appointments alongside anecdotes about official jets and past governors.
