Preparing for the SHHA Annual Meeting February 21, 2026
The SHHA Annual Meeting will be held on Saturday, February 21, 2026, from 9:00-11:00 am.
ALL meeting information is being posted on the Annual Meeting 2026 page on the SHHA website. Additional details will also appear in the January 2026 issue of the GRIT.
Solicitation of Questions for the Annual Meeting
As part of our commitment to transparency and member engagement, the Board is inviting questions from members on topics of interest. Members may submit questions in advance, and time will also be reserved for questions during the Annual Meeting. All questions will be addressed to the extent possible, and a full compilation of written questions and responses will be shared with the membership afterward.
To allow time for thoughtful review and preparation, please submit your questions via the website no later than January 16th.
Bylaws Revision and Vote at the Annual Meeting
In addition to the regular business of the Association, members will vote on the proposed revision of the Bylaws.
- The full draft will be available for review in January.
- A summary of key changes is available now on the website.
- Please note that the Bylaws are still undergoing final legal review, so some of revisions may be modified before the final version is posted in January.
The Board will also host informational meetings in January to walk members through the Bylaws changes and answer clarifying questions prior to the Annual Meeting. More details will be provided once dates are finalized.
Information on the voting process is also available now on the website.
More to Come in January
A second email blast in January will include:
- The complete proposed Bylaws
- The information session schedule
The Annual Meeting website will also be updated with:
- Biographies of the Interim Directors standing for election
- A clear explanation of the election process
- Note: If the revised Bylaws are ratified, future Director elections will be conducted by majority vote rather than plurality.
Your participation is essential to maintaining strong and effective governance for our community. We encourage all members to submit questions early, review the proposed Bylaws, and attend one of the informational sessions.
Warm regards,
Sandia Heights Homeowners Association Board of Directors

PNM Substation Update
PNM Substation Update
Despite overwhelming community opposition, the Bernalillo County Planning Commission (CPC) approved the PNM North Albuquerque Acres (NAA) Substation project on December 3, 2025.
Community opposition was significant, with a total of 485 individuals submitting letters and emails against the project between September 3 and November 25, 2025, compared to only 78 letters of support.
During the nearly six-hour CPC meeting, Commissioners critically questioned PNM over inconsistent and inaccurate information in their siting study and their failure to provide previously requested data. Nonetheless, the CPC ultimately approved the necessary applications.

Foothills Deer Hunt
Foothill Deer Hunt
Dear SHHA Members,
We are sharing a safety concern recently brought to our attention by a resident regarding deer hunting activities dangerously close to our residential foothills area. Reports include a severely injured buck sighted on Tramway Lane and nearby neighbors finding arrows in their backyards. This poses a significant potential safety risk to our residents, pets, and hikers, especially with another scheduled hunt from January 1–15.
A petition has been started by concerned neighbors to stop the hunts near the residential foothills. We urge you to review the information and consider supporting this petition. Please use the link below to access it:

We appreciate you being vigilant and helping us maintain a safe community.
