August GRIT: Sandia Pueblo Proposal, PNM Appeal, and More
Sandia Pueblo is seeking federal legislation to transfer approximately 10,000 acres within the T’uf Shur Bien Preservation Trust Area into federal trust. Because the proposal affects land bordering Sandia Heights, we’ve created a webpage with background information and a community survey. Please take a few minutes to learn more and share your feedback. The August GRIT also includes the latest update on the PNM substation appeal, an illustrated explanation of how electricity reaches your home, wildfire and neighborhood safety information, community events, and the annual Fourth of July parade and Roadrunner Food Bank food drive.
