Taos Bypass Debate Moves Toward Real Action
The article argues Taos must finally commit to a western bypass linking State Road 96 to near the municipal dump, to ease Paseo del Pueblo traffic and freeway skiers routes while limiting land takings and urban sprawl. It urges comprehensive town county planning, zoning, and state highway department cooperation to implement a practical, high speed bypass.

Water rights adjudication eyed for Pecos Valley future
A New Mexico district court may standardize Pecos River Basin water rights in one process after the Water Resources Division sought approval to handle 2,500 additional users. The case, stemming from Carlsbad irrigation calls, may take two to five years, or up to twenty for some parties, with a hydrographic survey required first. The piece also notes 1974 governor election results and current party dynamics in New Mexico politics.
