2026-09-24 - Archeological Review Committee
Summary
Based on auto-generated captions; names and figures may be misheard.
- Roll call: members Majes, Chair Ed and Trice were present, Member Beal was excused, and a quorum was declared. The agenda was approved.
- Matters from the floor: staff shared a written briefing on the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Marcy Street quarters. A consultant asked whether historic cultural property inventories for the Mark Grant Park area need updating, and the drainage scope was unclear, so staff will check with the engineers.
- Case 2026-012632 (revised water infrastructure monitoring report near Rancho Siringo Drive): approved with edits requested by the Historic Preservation Division, by voice vote.
- Case 2026-013167: Vincent S. Murray's request to be listed as a historian for the Rivers and Trails and suburban archaeological districts was approved.
- Case 2026-013170: monitoring plan for a water main of about 2,000 feet near Camino Corales and Old Santa Fe Trail, approved with edits.
- Case 2026-013186 (SWCA monitoring report for PNM conduit work): postponed to the November 19, 2026 meeting.
- Case 2026-013187 (PNM request for exemption from submitting a monitoring plan): the committee moved to deny the exemption and require the work to be monitored; the motion carried.
- Case 2026-013168 (about 230 feet of new water main and electrical line in the alley at 107 East Palace Avenue): approved with corrections.
- Case 2026-013169 (Homewise electrical line, about 1,110 feet): approved.
- Case 2026-013172 (Lumen fiber, about 750 feet near North Guadalupe Street): approved.
- Case 2026-013185 (Easy Fiber projectwide monitoring plan and an addendum for one project area): approved with requested changes. The caption figures for lengths were garbled, so none are given here.
- Administrative matters: staff described an emergency waterline repair in the Siringo neighborhood after about six breaks; a new Historic Preservation Manager starts in October; the committee discussed moving to two meetings per month given the heavy workload ahead, including the new code and Easy Fiber; members discussed keeping archaeological site locations confidential in reports; and a member argued that the code should treat all utility trenches alike ("a trench is a trench").
- Airport item: a staff member said environmental testing wells are planned at the Santa Fe Regional Airport, which is mostly outside the archaeological review district; members noted historic Camino Real alignments cross airport property and asked staff to follow up.
- The meeting adjourned. The next meeting is October 22.
Issues discussed
- Easy Fiber Archaeological Monitoring Plan
- Utility Trenching Code Clarification
- Santa Fe Regional Airport Groundwater Testing

00:06>> Call this meeting the archaeological
00:07review committee September 24th, 2026 to
00:11order. May we have the roll call,
00:12please?
00:14>> Member Majes
00:15>> here. Chair Ed
00:17>> present.
00:18>> Member Trice
00:20>> here.
00:22>> Member Beal
00:26>> excuse.
00:28>> Chair, you have a quorum.
00:31Thank you. First item for our attention
00:35is approval of agenda.
00:37Staff, anything to
00:40add or change?
00:43>> No, chair.
00:44>> Thank you.
00:49>> Second. All right. I move to approve the
00:52agenda.
00:57>> So you won't be able to hear it.
01:02I see that member responded to
01:05>> affirmatively, but I can't hear it.
01:11>> Can you hear me? No.
01:13>> Yes, we can hear you now. We fix it.
01:15Thank you.
01:16>> Okay.
01:16>> So, we have a motion.
01:20>> Uh second
01:23move and seconded. All in favor signify
01:25by saying I. I. I
01:29>> I motion carries. Thank you. We have no
01:33minutes. So we'll move to matters floor.
01:36First item is Georgia O'Keeffe Museum
01:39for Marcy quarters briefing.
01:43>> Miss Nicole RmIrez Thomas.
01:45>> Chair F. Uh Nicole Ramirez Thomas is
01:48unable to be here but she wanted to
01:51provide you Ricken documentation but she
01:54is not here to answer any questions that
01:56you may have. She just wanted to give
01:57you a written update.
01:59>> Excellent.
02:01Then committee, do you have any comments
02:04or questions to pose that we could
02:07eventually get answered?
02:12I was curious um from the standpoint of
02:16uh these uh quarters if they were
02:22typical of uh military quarters of the
02:26time and maybe um maybe what their
02:29comparison to quarters similar quarters
02:32at Fort Union. That was that was all I
02:34really was curious about was how how
02:36they related to other officers quarters
02:39around the southwest.
02:43Not part of their presentation, but just
02:45a curiosity from my part.
02:50Excellent question. And I think staff
02:52could forward that to
02:54the company in question and they could
02:57incorporate discussion of same in their
03:00actual chapter on this matter when they
03:04create it.
03:06We will chair.
03:10>> No, I didn't have anything.
03:13>> I just wanted to note that it reads very
03:16much like a
03:20proposal of work as opposed to a report
03:24of work accomplished. The use of the
03:27future tense
03:30is a little odd in some places.
03:34I imagine that will all get rectified in
03:37the final report.
03:39All right,
03:42we can move on to the second item from
03:44the floor regards Mark Grant Park.
03:49Donald Purdan of WSP has
03:55sent a letter
03:58to Mr. Purdan.
04:02He is one moment please chair.
04:08>> Hello Donald Purdan here.
04:11>> Hello.
04:13So thank you for sending us in. Do you
04:15have any further verbiage to offer?
04:20Um
04:21yeah, just the main question of whether
04:23or not we would have to, you know,
04:25update the current HCPIs
04:28along the park or andor, um record new
04:33HCPIs along the length of the park. Um
04:37there's no plan on impacting any of the
04:39houses. All the disturbance is going to
04:42be staying within the park. Um, so I
04:45just would like some clarification on
04:48whether we even need to update the
04:50houses or not.
04:54>> All right. Thank you. Um, member Trace,
04:56do you have some thoughts?
04:58>> Uh, no, I really don't. Um
05:03uh when you say all the disturbance will
05:05be within the park, do you mean not in
05:07the roadway but actually in the like
05:11channel of the aoyo or whatever?
05:14>> Correct. It'll be entirely in the park.
05:16Um I guess it's just a you know park
05:18improvement project and not anything to
05:20do the roadways or the sidewalks. Um, I
05:23think there was a nearby project, a
05:25previous survey where the project
05:27actually did impact, you know, sidewalks
05:29and
05:31front front yards. Um, however, this one
05:34will not be doing that. So,
05:36>> okay.
05:39Uh, nothing further.
05:42>> Okay. Thank you, member Madison.
05:44>> Yeah. I was curious what the actual size
05:47of the work to be done was.
05:52>> What the the size of it?
05:54>> Sorry.
05:54>> Yeah.
05:56>> Um it um
05:59it's pretty much just the park. Um wish
06:03I could share my screen. Can I share my
06:05screen?
06:07>> So, are they doing work on the entire
06:11park or just parts of the park? Like
06:14what is the actual size of the work?
06:16>> Yeah, the entire park as I know it. So
06:18it'd be going from um Richard's Avenue
06:23across Camino Consuela and all the way
06:27to the intersection of
06:31you know almost to Stringo Road and
06:34is it Aanita Deos
06:39was it Companion.
06:43So yeah, the entire length of the park.
06:47>> And what kind of drainage improvements
06:48were going to be done?
06:50>> Um, it's just park like actual park
06:52improvements. No drainage improvements
06:54or anything.
06:57>> Okay.
07:01>> And what are those going to be?
07:03>> Um, that is not something I'm clear on
07:06right now. Um,
07:08all I was told by our engineers was that
07:11all the, you know, the entire
07:12undertaking and all the improvements
07:14would be within the park boundaries.
07:19>> Okay.
07:26>> I'm aware survey might be needed
07:28regardless, but yeah, I just wasn't
07:30sure.
07:32Okay. [laughter]
07:39Mr. Purden. Um,
07:40>> yes.
07:44>> My question was the same as what you've
07:46already heard. What are the actual
07:48drainage improvements of
07:51somebody busting out old grain
07:54orififices and replacing them is one
07:56thing or rebuilding the whole thing from
07:59stem to stern is another thing. So, it's
08:02really helpful to know what the
08:04undertaking consists.
08:09Yeah, as far as I know, from what the
08:11engineers told me, it's mostly just park
08:13improvements. I don't I'm not aware of
08:15any drainage improvements or any, you
08:16know, necessarily infrastructural
08:19improvements. Uh I'm sorry, I don't have
08:21any more information than that. Um but I
08:25do know it won't be crossing the streets
08:26into the properties.
08:31>> All right.
08:34>> Yes. Go ahead.
08:39>> Um, the email says the project inc uh
08:43includes drainage improvements or
08:45involves drainage improvements, but
08:47you're saying it doesn't. Uh, I think
08:49we're confused.
08:51>> Yeah. Um,
08:53I I must have gotten confused about
08:55that. I apologize.
09:01>> I think we need a plan. I I I don't
09:04think we're ready to do anything about
09:06this.
09:08>> Okay, that's
09:10that's okay. I will let the engineers
09:12know and have and ask for a little bit
09:14more clarification on what's actually
09:15going to be done in the park and then
09:17I'll reach back out to you all.
09:19>> Thank you.
09:21>> Right. Thank you, Mr. Burton.
09:25[clears throat]
09:29It is the case that we typically do not
09:32include consideration of extra property
09:37historic structures
09:39because we're focused on the
09:41archaeology, not the architecture.
09:46And we've had numerous projects that
09:48came through where
09:51did update HCPIs, but the vast majority
09:54of them people did not update ACPI
09:58phones.
10:00I guess it all kind of depends.
10:04>> So when we know more, we'll know more.
10:09>> Can I a question on that? Based on that
10:11comment is another matter from the
10:13floor.
10:14>> Yep.
10:15>> Um we're currently doing a survey of the
10:17Midtown campus, an archaeological
10:20survey, but there are as we know many
10:21buildings on that campus. Should we
10:24update this HCPI forms for those
10:26buildings or based on what you just
10:29said, is that not necessary because
10:31we're focused on the archaeology
10:34or is that not enough information?
10:36>> Oh, that's plenty of information. And if
10:39staff hasn't weighed in on that already,
10:42somebody needs to talk to somebody on
10:44the historic sign whatever board they
10:46call themselves now and find out because
10:49that should have been specified in your
10:51contract.
10:54follow up with you.
10:55>> Yeah, we can we can discuss it, but I
10:58think it was contemplated that at least
10:59the Foglesson would have an HCPI and um
11:05Garrison
11:07as well.
11:07>> I think John Murphy just did those.
11:10>> He might be involved already. I think I
11:13had a couple conversations with him, but
11:15let's have a let's talk. Okay, we can
11:19figure it out. Okay, great. Thanks.
11:28Thank you.
11:31>> Anything else?
11:35>> Then we will move to old business
11:38which is case number 202612632.
11:47Joshua Vos Engineering Company agent for
11:50the city of Santa Fe public utilities
11:52department requests approval of a
11:54revised archaeological monitoring
11:55results report for the installation of
11:58water infrastructure in the vicinity of
12:00Rancho Seringo Drive in the suburban
12:02archaeological review district.
12:05Thank you for your staff report.
12:06Heather, is there anything else you want
12:10to add? Uh, you know, chair, I just
12:14follow up on what was pre previously
12:17identified as needed additional
12:19information.
12:21>> Have you communicated the substance of
12:23this report to Mr. Bios?
12:28>> Uh, I think we have.
12:31>> Yes, this is updated.
12:33>> So, I ask because otherwise I feel like
12:37I should read the report into the
12:40record. But if he already knows then
12:43Okay.
12:48So, is he present?
12:51>> Yes. Josh, will you please unmute
12:53yourself? Thank you.
12:54>> Yep.
12:57>> All right. Josh, anything you want to
13:01add to all of this?
13:05>> As of right now, no.
13:07>> Okay.
13:08>> Do I have to be sworn in? Yes, you do.
13:10Please state your name and address for
13:12the record.
13:13>> Uh Joshua Viaos, 1010 Parkland Place, uh
13:17Albuquerque, New Mexico.
13:21>> Do you solemnly declare and affirm the
13:23testimony you have in reference to this
13:25item is the truth, the whole truth, and
13:26do this under the penalties of perjury?
13:29>> Yes.
13:31>> Thank you.
13:33>> You have the floor, sir. If there is
13:36anything that comes to mind
13:39or we can proceed with committee
13:41commentary and question.
13:43>> Uh say proceed with committee commentary
13:45and questions.
13:47>> All right. Member Majes
13:52I see that you did expand the
13:53strategraphy section which I appreciate.
13:56However, um it doesn't seem like you
14:00described the actual straighta observed.
14:03you liken them to what is
14:07known from the USGS soil reports but not
14:10actually what you observed and I
14:12understand that might not be possible at
14:14this point but I think in future reports
14:16I would like to see the actual
14:18descriptions for each straighta um
14:20rather than generalized zone
14:21descriptions especially as your trench
14:24photos show a wider
14:27variety of soils than is fully captured
14:30by the zones
14:32um especially if you compare the zones
14:36one and two and profiles five and six
14:38versus those zones in profile one.
14:41They're very different looking.
14:43Um
14:45and then um
14:47some grammatical corrections on page 23.
14:51Paragraph 3 um last sentence doesn't
14:54have a period and neither does paragraph
14:574.
14:58really
15:16>> member trace.
15:18Um
15:22I uh
15:26I'm confused by what this uh additional
15:33onepage
15:36map we got is.
15:40And I'm I'm not quite sure how that fits
15:42in with this other, you know, I I just
15:47don't know what that's for.
15:50>> Which page are you referring to, sir?
15:52>> I was going to ask that same question.
15:57>> Uh
15:59I don't know. I just um
16:02it says a web app builder by Arc GIS. it
16:07and it just it's streets and and the
16:10neighborhood and I guess it probably
16:12shows
16:14uh
16:16I don't know but it was just like an uh
16:18in it was a an item in the
16:23uh new business
16:27um package
16:30or matters from the floor. That's what
16:32it was. Matters from the floor.
16:35Suringo neighborhood waterline project.
16:38Uh, did that did am I the only one that
16:40got that?
16:43>> Uh, sir, I think you might be in the
16:45wrong piece of the
16:48of the packet.
16:53>> In in old business, there's the this
16:55complete report and then in matters from
16:58the floor, there was just this one
17:00single page.
17:05But I don't know. I don't know how that
17:06relates to anything.
17:09>> Well, in fact, the matters from the
17:12floor do not relate to this
17:15project and report in question.
17:18>> Okay.
17:21Uh I have
17:23I I will
17:27say no comment further.
17:32>> Thank you, sir.
17:36Um
17:40the the one thing that the staff report
17:43mentions um
17:47is the reference to the Asakia M
17:52and
17:57you know it would help to clarify which
18:00iteration of the Asakia Madre is being
18:03referred to.
18:05Um, there have been many over the years
18:08and the references are all over the
18:11place in terms of their precision. So, a
18:14little clarification there would be
18:16helpful.
18:19Um,
18:22other than that, I applaud your efforts
18:24to try to update this thing and make
18:27sense out of the some degree of chaos
18:30presented in first iteration of this.
18:33And we realize that you didn't do it. It
18:36was sort of handed to you. So,
18:40thank you for your efforts. hang in
18:42there and address that one list or the
18:45several little additional things that
18:47have been mentioned in the staff report
18:49and staff can verify that they've been
18:52done. And my personal opinion is that
18:56that should take care of it, but we will
18:59await motion and voting to actually get
19:02there.
19:06Which sets the stage for are we ready
19:09for a motion?
19:14I I think so. Uh
19:17I move to approve this report
19:21with the provided edits from the city of
19:24Santa Fe Histo Preservation Division.
19:31>> Second.
19:31>> We have a motion and second. All in
19:34favor signify by saying I. I. I.
19:38>> I. Motion carries.
19:41Thank you, John.
19:43>> Thank you. Have a good day.
19:49>> New
19:52case number 202613167.
19:57Vincent S. Murray, applicant, requests
19:59approval for listing as a historian for
20:01the river and trails and suburban
20:02archaeological districts on the city of
20:04Santa Fe's list of approved
20:06archaeologists and historians.
20:10We have a staff report from you, Lauren.
20:13Anything you wish to add to that?
20:15>> Uh, no. Sher,
20:18>> thank you. Is
20:20>> Murray in the room
20:22>> right here?
20:23>> Come on, please, and be sworn in.
20:25>> Do that. I want to have to talk behind
20:26people's backs.
20:30>> Hello.
20:30>> Please raise your right hand and state
20:32your name and address for the record.
20:33>> My name is Vincent Smith Murray. My
20:35address is 2711
20:38Camino Ardisano, Santa Fe,
20:42New Mexico 857
20:4687505.
20:47>> Thank you. Do you solemnly declare and
20:50affirm that the testimony you have in
20:52reference to this item is the truth, the
20:54whole truth, and do this under the
20:55penalties of perjury?
20:57>> Yes, I do.
20:57>> Thank you. May proceed.
21:01>> Do you wish to make a statement into
21:03order of your application?
21:05Um, actually I'm relatively new uh here,
21:08so I don't um
21:13>> All right,
21:14member trees.
21:17>> Uh,
21:20well, I found it interesting, uh, Reed,
21:22since I know something about some of the
21:25buildings you talked about in Phoenix.
21:27And uh while I didn't know I' I've been
21:31to Prescott a number of times, I never
21:34really paid much attention to the
21:37buildings that you mentioned there, but
21:39uh uh
21:42I was very curious about why you
21:44investigated the Celebrity Theater. I
21:46think that's the one on uh on Van Beern,
21:50is it? Uh in Phoenix, the the theater in
21:53the round.
21:55the Van Beern and and 32nd Street. Yes.
21:58Yes. I was actually asked by the
22:00Celebrity Theater to to do a National
22:03Register of Historic Places nomination
22:05for them. Um and that was fortunate for
22:07them as well. They were listed on the
22:09city's historic register on under their
22:12um architecture and their association as
22:15an entertainment uh venue. However, they
22:18did not meet the standards of the
22:20National Register under that. So, uh, in
22:23doing the research and tracking down the
22:24original plans, I was able to get them
22:26listed under their engineering instead,
22:28which worked out quite well for them
22:30because they wanted to do some
22:31remodeling, which did not affect their
22:33engineering, and it worked out really
22:34great. And I did get some free concert
22:37tickets in the process.
22:40>> Always
22:42I saw some great shows there during the
22:4470s,
22:46many great shows, actually.
22:48and they're still putting them on and
22:51they they still have a revolving stage.
22:53So when you're there, they'll have, you
22:55know, somebody playing and everybody
22:57gets to watch them and there's no seat
23:00that's more than 75 ft from the stage
23:02for that reason. So it's it's pretty
23:04cool. It's very intimate when you're
23:05watching a concert there.
23:08>> Yeah. Yeah. It was a little confusing
23:10for some of the rock musicians back in
23:12the 70s.
23:14[laughter]
23:16>> Good.
23:18>> That's all I got.
23:20>> I'm one of the others perhaps
23:22exacerbated by many others.

25:16Paul Duran, agent for the city of Sen
25:18Water Division applicant, requests
25:20approval for an archaeological
25:21monitoring plan for installation of
25:242,000 ft of a new water man in the
25:27vicinity of Camino Corales, Camino
25:29Ponones, and Old Santa Fe Trail in
25:31Rivers and Trails Archaeological Review
25:34District
25:40Reports.
25:43>> Lauren, anything to add to that? Um if
25:47um Paul uh I would staff would request
25:50uh if you could include an existing
25:52waterline image. Um and
25:57also if you could clarify whether or not
25:59there has been previous soil disturbance
26:02um which may have occurred with the uh
26:05previous previous utility line
26:06installations
26:08and that all from staff.
26:12>> Thank you Laura. Is Paul present?
26:15>> Paul is present. Paul, will you unmute?
26:17Um I also have um I will not be swearing

26:24>> For the record,
26:26>> Paul,
26:28members of the ARC,
26:34>> Paul, is there anything you want to add
26:35to what we've got in front of us?
26:39Uh, Cherk, no sir, but could Lauren
26:43share the information staff is
26:44requesting.
26:47>> I didn't hear that. I'm sorry.
26:49>> That's okay. I'll I'll repeat myself.
26:51Um, if you could uh we would request
26:53that you include an existing waterline
26:55image in the report. And then also if
26:58you could clarify whether or not there
27:01um is a previous soil disturbance which
27:04may have occurred um with previous
27:07utility line installations.
27:10>> Uh thank you Lauren Chair members of the
27:13ARC. I will provide that. Yes ma'am.
27:16>> Thank you.
27:17>> Thank you Paul.
27:20>> Anything else Paul?
27:22>> No chair. Thank you.
27:27All right. So,
27:29committee member Madison.
27:32>> Yeah. Uh, only comment I had was on page
27:3549 when you discuss um the
27:39qualifications for the personnel in
27:42paragraph
27:44four is to also make sure that they are
27:49on the Santa Fe list of qualified
27:50archaeologists
27:53as one of their qualifications.
27:56Great. Thank you.
27:59>> Great. Thank you, Member Madison.
28:06>> All right. Member Trees.
28:08>> Uh
28:10uh this uh work is being done in a
28:14combination. Is it are they all dirt
28:17roads, Paul, or are some of them paved
28:19and and some of them dirt or are they
28:22all dirt? It's not clear to me whether
28:26whether there's some pavement to deal
28:29with.
28:31>> Chereek member Trice,
28:33most likely there'll be pavement on Old
28:35Santa Fe Trail and the intersection of
28:37Camino Ponones, but at Camino Corales
28:40and the intersection of Camino Ponones,
28:43it's gravel. So that entire road is a
28:45gravel dirt road. Uh-huh.
28:49Um,
28:51and all the uh
28:54all of the construction, all the
28:57excavation will be in the road. Is that
28:59right?
29:01>> It'll be in
29:04most likely center of the roadway on
29:07Camino Ponis.
29:09>> Uhhuh. Okay.
29:13Um, I know that when we were talking
29:16about the work on uh
29:20Garcia and Monte Soul that uh there was
29:24an anticipation of rock
29:26uh I don't know whether they actually
29:28got any but do they have any
29:31expectations over in this part of town
29:33too sort of similar
29:36chair member tric there'll be some rock
29:40but I believe As this aluvial fl kind of
29:47flows southwesterly, I think we're going
29:50to see more of a silty and sandy lom.
29:56>> Okay.
29:58Thank you.
29:59>> Yes, sir. Thank you,
30:09>> Paul. I have no questions.
30:12So, thank you.
30:15>> Thank you, Chair.
30:21>> Case 2026 013170.
30:26I move to approve the monitoring plan
30:28with the
30:30recommended
30:33edits.
30:36>> Second.
30:38moved and seconded. All in favor signify
30:40by saying I
30:42>> I
30:44>> I motion carries.
30:48>> Thank you, Paul.
30:49>> Thank you, chair. Thank you, members of
30:51the ARC.
30:52>> May you not encounter bedrock.
30:59We look forward to hearing a report of
31:01how you dealt with all that bedrock on
31:03the project he referred to.
31:11So case number 202613186
31:16SWCA agent for PNM requests approval of
31:19an archaeological monitoring report for
31:21installation
31:23of 6,63
31:25ft of conduit at Foothills Road and
31:27Alazonal Drive in the River and Trails
31:29and Suburban Archaeological Review
31:31Districts. Thank you. for your staff
31:33report. Are there other things to add?
31:36>> Thank you, Ter. I did want to note that
31:39the staff report was requ provided to
31:41the applicant and so they are already
31:45aware of my comments relative to some
31:49labeling, but also it's just I want a
31:52bit more clarification on what was
31:53surveyed by post back in 1988 just so
31:57that we could be abundantly clear.
32:00It just
32:02and maybe the rationale for why it
32:04wasn't surveyed currently and just so
32:06that we know we didn't miss anything
32:08basically.
32:11>> Thank you.
32:15>> Who is presenting on behalf of
32:18>> Please raise your hand if you're here
32:19for uh SWCA.
32:22>> It's Alisa.
32:22>> Oh, it's Alisa.
32:23>> Yeah.
32:28Please go ahead and unmute and uh uh to

32:43name and address for the record.
32:45>> Alyssa Healey, 1832 Saint Northeast
32:50Albuquerque, New Mexico.
32:54Do you um do you solemnly declare and
32:58affirm the testimony you have in
32:59reference to this item is the truth the
33:01whole truth and do this under the
33:02penalties of perjury?
33:04>> I do.
33:06>> Thank you. She has been sworn chair.
33:08>> All right, Alyssa, you have the floor.
33:10Is there anything you wish to add at
33:12this point?
33:14>> Uh nothing at the moment.
33:18All right,
33:20member trice.
33:23>> Um,
33:26I don't I don't think I have any
33:28comments on this one.
33:31I thought I did, but I guess not.
33:35I'm not seeing them.
33:39>> All right. Thank you, sir. Member
33:41Madison.
33:44>> Okay. So, I was curious as who was the
33:48principal investigator who oversaw the
33:50report due to Robin Cordera's departure.
33:57>> I believe I can confirm that for you.
34:00I'm standing in for the the individual
34:01that normally attends these meetings,
34:03but I can make a note. I believe that
34:07Joe Burkeman was the author and
34:12I will confirm the PI.
34:15>> Okay. Because they will need to be
34:17listed.
34:19>> Yes.
34:21Um,
34:29and then
34:33I had questions about the isolate
34:36results, especially in conjunction with
34:40the was presented in
34:45in table 52, the the big table for the
34:48results. Um,
34:52were the other IO's besides IO7 found on
34:57the surface or in excavations?
35:01>> I will make note of that and ask the
35:04team that was out there.
35:06>> Okay. And also, I was curious if this IO
35:10account includes the cultural pill that
35:12was found in TI18.
35:17in TI18.
35:20>> Yes,
35:21>> I will make note of that as well and
35:24we'll find we'll get an answer for that.
35:27And then uh TI16
35:30is listed is identified as a feature in
35:33table 52,
35:35but there's not a discussion of it
35:37anywhere else. And it there's no
35:39discussion of why it does not qualify as
35:41an intact cultural deposit.
35:47Okay.
35:51And then uh just going back to um
35:57table 52
35:59um
36:03in pothole 82 you say you have no data
36:06but then you say no cultural material is
36:08observed. If you don't have data you
36:10can't confirm that no cultural material
36:13was observed.
36:20uh pothole 110. It says that it's an
36:23expansion. Um I'd really like to know to
36:26what size and what depth and if any
36:28cultural materials were observed in the
36:30expansion.
36:34Um
36:36yeah, I guess clarification if pothole
36:39137 is a mistakenly collected point or
36:42not. It just says not a pothole.
36:48>> Okay.
36:49>> Then
36:52um and
36:55oh is sorry the TI6
36:58with the feature is table 51 not 52. Um
37:05>> got it. Okay. Thank you.
37:07>> For then table 51, TI21 and TI22.
37:12Uh
37:15by fines are you referring to silks and
37:18clays in that?
37:25>> Silts and clays. You said
37:27>> yeah it says uh that the soils in TX 21
37:31and 22 are loose of co loose decomposing
37:34granite and pines.
37:37I mean that can refer to salts and
37:39clays, but that's usually when you've
37:40been sorting out the soils into their
37:43different.
37:46>> Yeah, it's a bit odd to refer it to that
37:49way here unless you've been sorting the
37:51soil.
37:52>> Okay, we will correct that.
38:00>> Uh yeah, those those are my
38:04>> Okay, thank you very much.
38:11Um,
38:15staff
38:17noted the
38:21need for some clarification about
38:24the previous survey and the fine
38:28distinction between what was monitored
38:31and what wasn't monitored. And I would
38:35really like to know all of that.
38:38And I would just like to point out that
38:39here is one of the conflicts between
38:42state regulation and the city of Santa
38:46Fe's ordinance.
38:49Um, this survey is rather ancient and
38:54under state regs,
38:58one would expect a reervey. In this
39:01case, it's a monitoring plan or a
39:04report. Um,
39:07just sort of seems like the same
39:11general approach to cultural resource
39:15identification and protection would be
39:17in order.
39:19Uh
39:22obviously we can't force someone to
39:26monitor in an area that's previously
39:28been surveyed because the city ordinance
39:31is in the way.
39:34But I would submit that it would be good
39:36practice for a company doing monitoring
39:41to monitor it if indeed the survey in
39:45question is older than
39:50Well, in this case, it's really old. U
39:54but older than 10 years is a good rule
39:56of thumb.
39:59I realize it's water under the bridge,
40:01but uh I would encourage SWCA to put on
40:05their best practices glasses when they
40:08do this the next time.
40:11>> Understood.
40:14We will address that.
40:16>> All right.
40:19All that being said, do you believe
40:23Anderson that the directions you are
40:26anticipating in response to your
40:28comments are something staff can deal
40:31with verification and
40:34further handling or whether we need to
40:36see it again.
40:38>> I would like to see it again. Um
40:42especially since I have downsized a
40:44negative report with the potential
40:46feature.
40:47>> Y uh and sorry I forgot to say this
40:49earlier. If there are photos of the
40:51isolates really like those included as
40:53well
40:56and the feature.
40:59>> Okay. staff has been taking copious
41:00notes on what further information we're
41:04anticipating and so
41:07please get all that fixed and bring it
41:10back for another official
41:15uh new business well old business
41:18consideration.
41:20>> Okay, we will do that. Thank you for
41:22your review.
41:24Well, we have to make an official motion
41:26here first, but uh
41:29>> uh do you think you'll be able to have
41:31this ready in time by next meeting or do
41:34you want another date?
41:39>> I believe we can get it ready for the
41:41next meeting. Um
41:45hold on one moment. Let staff verify
41:47when the submission date for next
41:49meeting is.
41:50>> That's October 6. Sure.
41:54It's three weeks.
41:56>> If we could have until the following
41:58meeting,
42:01>> that would be helpful.
42:01>> The deadline is October 6th for that
42:04meeting.
42:06>> For the following meeting after
42:08>> would be
42:09>> Oh, the November 3rd for November 19th
42:13meeting.
42:14>> November 3rd. Okay.
42:15>> November 3rd deadline.
42:18>> Postponed. Alissa, the reason we asked
42:21all that is we're supposed to postpone
42:23to a date certain rather than just table
42:25it nauseam. So we're trying to give you
42:29a hard date and don't want to compromise
42:31your ability to react.
42:34So that's why we did all that.
42:37>> Appreciate it.
42:40>> For case
42:42>> go ahead. for case 2026 013186.
42:47I move to postpone until the November
42:4919th 2026 meeting.
42:53>> Second.
42:55>> Moved and seconded. All in favor
42:56signified by saying I.
42:58>> I.
42:59>> I.
43:01>> I. Motion carries. Thank you. Thank you,
43:04Alyssa. Thank you, Ch.
43:14>> I have this problem with this short name
43:17sounded like chicks.
43:20[clears throat]
43:22Next case 2026
43:25013187
43:29heritage agent for PNM applicant
43:31requests for exemption from submitt of a
43:34monitoring plan and instead provide a
43:36class one desktop survey for a 980 foot
43:39electrical power conduit at New Mexico
43:41599 interchange along Northage Road and
43:47Via Veteranos Barrosa old interchange in
43:51the suburban archaeological review
43:53district. Thank you, Heather staff
43:56report. Anything you want,
44:00>> Adam?
44:02>> Um, at this point, no. I would like to
44:05have seen what the archological we've
44:07made with this,
44:12>> but that's why staff. Okay.
44:22We have representative of the applicant
44:24who will need to be identified on the
44:26form in please
44:29>> please state your name and address for
44:31the record.
44:31>> Patrical Rogers 10505 Hackmore Place
44:34Southwest Albuquerque, New Mexico 87121.
44:37>> Thank you. Do you solemnly declare and
44:39affirm that the testimony you have in
44:40reference to this item is the truth, the
44:43whole truth, and do this under the
44:44penalties of perjury?
44:45>> Yes, I do so.
44:46>> Thank you. He has been sworn.
44:49>> Thank you.
44:51That
44:53what do you have to say?
44:54>> Um I understand that this one is a bit
44:57of a unusual
44:59submission. Um
45:02Oh, there's already a spelling error. I
45:04see copy editing gets to get yelled at
45:06again for the wrong s in effect non
45:11section 106 project. But that's fine.
45:13Um, one of the things I just want to
45:15point out is what we're requesting is
45:17using um an if old, very old, so old
45:23there's not even a real map and Nimris
45:25is wrong. Um, that's why the site the
45:27the map is in there. Uh, OAS survey for
45:29the interchange where this is going to
45:31be along. Um, which was done to modern
45:33standards which is the state rule. It
45:35doesn't actually specify any time
45:36period. um that is why SLO and others um
45:40routinely allow 20 25 year surveys
45:42depending on how they were handled
45:43nowadays depending on who's reviewing
45:45them. We're just asking that to be
45:47considered as well as if there does need
45:49to be monitoring given it is along the
45:50interchange. That said, we are welcome
45:54to input from the ARC and if this does
45:56need um to go through the standard
45:58compliance measure, we will just convey
46:00that up and act it accordingly.
46:05Okay.
46:06You conveyed a lot of information there,
46:09most of which I've never heard of
46:10before. So, thank you for that. I will
46:12inquire of the parties you mentioned
46:15what the heck they're thinking. Um
46:19because
46:21it wasn't that way
46:25when I was there.
46:27Uh
46:30remember Madison
46:33So from the description, I think this
46:40it does fit as being covered by survey.
46:44However, that is hard to determine
46:46without a map of the surveys like the
46:49Nimris map. Um, also you say there's no
46:53state register of cultural properties or
46:54national register, but you also don't
46:56include that map. Um
46:59then I guess it would also be nice to
47:01have the HTTPI map just to make material
47:03that HTPI um
47:06>> there is one in A1 in the uh
47:09confidential appendix that has all
47:11cultural resources would be there but we
47:13didn't have any
47:18>> oh okay
47:20>> and as noted um please note that the
47:23that the survey associated with the OAS
47:25activity is misplotted as being in
47:28not on the interchange but actually
47:30being plotted on as if they surveyed the
47:33highway which was completely separate
47:34project that was an independent letter
47:35report they just never uploaded GIS in
47:381988.
47:39>> Okay.
47:54So
47:59is there further description in OAS's
48:04report how wide they surveyed?
48:06>> They they state that they um surveyed um
48:10two two of them. They didn't specify
48:12which one from 99 to 457.2
48:15m using 50 meter transvals up to the
48:18edge of the right of way.
48:20That is all that they state.
48:23>> And will PMM's work be entirely within
48:25the rightway?
48:27>> No. There is a small snippet um as you
48:31can see on figure 4 where they jut out
48:34of the rightway um onto private land for
48:38a very small extension and I believe I
48:41call I did I call it out um yes it ends
48:44approximately 11 meters on private land.
48:46So it jumps out on that and that's
48:48called out on the first page for for
48:50your review.
48:51>> Okay.
48:52>> Otherwise, it's the most of the what
48:54would be the buffer that actually is
48:56making it larger than it is.
49:21I'm just thinking this one over.
49:25>> Yeah, maybe.
49:27Member Trees.
49:28>> Member Trees.
49:30>> Um, I have no comments other than it's
49:33going to be exciting working out there
49:37[snorts]
49:41>> or not, depending.
50:01I don't suppose
50:05when you called OAS if you called OAS
50:09that they could actually produce a
50:15big file of what they did look at
50:19>> having worked there. Not a chance they
50:22have those records in any reasonable
50:24format. Um, unfortunately, no. I wish
50:30that they had made a better map for the
50:32appendum report. This would simplify it
50:35much more sinly rather than a
50:37description that they surveyed the right
50:39away and start end dots. Um but no they
50:44they don't have
50:47>> Yeah.
50:50>> So that being said, I think I have no
50:53further comment.
50:57So
50:59do folks want to make a motion.
51:18I'm just also having a hard time.
51:22>> Thank you.
51:26>> I have a question shar um you know I can
51:28understand the motive behind doing this
51:31wanting to simplify things and but you
51:34know it's we have very specific
51:36standards in the archological districts
51:38ordinance and um they're
51:42In my
51:44view, there were still things to be
51:47learned um beyond what was presented to
51:50us. And I don't know if we want to help
51:53to accommodate the applicant. Maybe
51:55allow him not have to do monitoring
51:58plan, but just do a monitoring report
52:01might be a a path forward if it's a
52:03pleasure of the committee. But but um
52:06yeah that when it comes to waving our
52:08standards that's that's I had a bit of
52:10concern with
52:17>> member trace.
52:19You follow all that? Do you have any
52:21questions?
52:25>> Uh I I didn't quite catch uh
52:30all of it. it seemed like uh are are you
52:36not calling for monitoring of the
52:39project or
52:41I I guess that that's what I didn't
52:43quite catch.
52:45Uh well so member trice chair e staff is
52:49of the opinion that there has to be I
52:52mean there's enough holes in the
52:54information that we don't have that
52:57there needs to be at least monitoring
52:59and then possibly to help expedite the
53:02process or but we don't have anything
53:05specific in code. So that's why I'm
53:07struggling here a little bit about
53:09waivers. So if there's a way in terms
53:12the process can be made more efficient
53:14through um just a monitor monitoring
53:18monitoring report instead of having to
53:20produce a plan as well. That may be the
53:23pleasure of the committee but um yeah
53:26the concern
53:31>> GL
53:34>> um
53:38>> I guess I'm still not following what
53:41the path forward is. I mean, he's
53:44presented a plan and
53:50uh we're questioning whether
53:54Go ahead, help me out here.
53:57>> Uh Don, we have not been presented with
54:00plan. We have been presented with a
54:02request for a waiver.
54:06What staff has articulated is that given
54:11how we've got to this juncture, it might
54:14be the pleasure of this body, the three
54:18of us, to allow them to proceed with
54:23just monitoring without the production
54:26of a plan beforehand and accept a report
54:30of monitoring after the fact. as
54:34sufficient compliance with the city
54:36ordinance. Is that a fair summary?
54:38>> Yes, sir.
54:41>> Okay, that's clear. Um,
54:46I don't know how I feel about that. It
54:48seems like an exception and I don't know
54:50how I feel about exceptions.
54:53Uh, I I I I
54:56guess I don't like exceptions because
54:59then somebody else can come in and say,
55:01"But you did this."
55:04Um,
55:09[snorts]
55:11I don't know.
55:14>> Well, fair enough. We'll go back to
55:16Madison. She's been thinking all the
55:19time we've been talking.
55:21I I think how clearer mapping I'm
55:25of the OAS project. I'm just not
55:31comfortable with agreeing that it covers
55:33the project.
55:35Um
55:37and also clear mapping is part of the
55:39SLO standard. So technically this is not
55:41SLO stand. Well, it's it would just be
55:44state standard 410.15.64,
55:48I think, is the one,
55:50>> but no,
55:51>> but that's also part of the exemption.
55:53>> Well, technically that rule would
55:55require me to ask the land agency for
55:58>> Yeah.
55:59>> I don't know who I ask in this case. We
56:01have a local ordinance.
56:04>> Yeah.
56:07Yeah. I think without clearer mapping of
56:10where the OAS project is, I I have a
56:12hard time agreeing that it does
56:15adequately cover
56:20this project.
56:25>> Thank you for articulating our
56:27collective qualms.
56:31>> You want to offer anything else?
56:34This was a request by our client to
56:37submit this forward to see and
56:39specifically um the provision regarding
56:42exemptions.
56:43Whether or not this would sufficiently
56:45fit under that with the understanding
56:46that if not we would certainly proceed
56:48as normal. What we would possibly
56:49request is if we could possibly expedite
56:51it without needing to submit a
56:52monitoring plan and instead move forward
56:54with a we would include the
56:55reconnaissance survey as part of this
56:57and the full documentation and a full
56:58monitoring report. We would be very
57:00gracious to do that and then skip the
57:02monitoring plan step if the RC would be
57:04still coming. If not, we understand as
57:05well.
57:10>> So, we still have ball hovering
57:12somewhere over
57:14in or out of our court. Um,
57:19basically this boils down to do we want
57:21to see a monitoring plan anyhow?
57:28And I see member Tre is feeling fairly
57:31happy about that possibility.
57:35So a motion made should specify whether
57:39we need to see a monitoring plan
57:46or not.
57:55>> I I think uh member Magnus should make
57:58that uh make that motion.
58:04>> Thank you, John.
58:05>> I'm going to punt to her punt to the
58:07archaeologist.
58:11>> Um
58:14I think I would like to see a monitoring
58:16plan because
58:18if the survey is misplotted, the sites
58:20might be misplotted, too. Um,
58:25yeah. So,
58:29I'm going to motion that for case
58:332026 013187
58:37um
58:40that uh
58:42this be resubmitted as a monitoring
58:44plan.
58:47The work be monitored.
58:52Second. Yeah.
58:54>> Hold your fire, Tom.
58:56>> We have a motion and a second. The staff
58:58has some further information.
59:00>> Yeah. I just wanted to um if we can have
59:04a a withdrawal of the application or I'm
59:08sorry um or just motioning because this
59:11um we it had to come in for a with a new
59:15case number. So we can't uh do any type
59:19of postponements. We would have to
59:21motion it.
59:23>> So would it be fair to amend the motion
59:25to say something
59:27>> to the effect that we deny the request
59:30for exemption and require a monitor?
59:33>> Thank you.
59:33>> In simple terms, does that meet your
59:36intent? Tom, are you happy with that?
59:39>> Yes.
59:40>> Okay. If that works for staff,
59:43>> thank you.
59:44>> We have a motion and a second.
59:47All in favor signify by saying I.
59:49>> I.
59:50>> I.
59:52>> I. Motion carries.
59:58>> Thank you.
59:58>> Thank you.
1:00:00>> Yeah. November.
1:00:03>> Not October. [laughter]
1:00:10>> All right. Case number
1:00:142026 013168.
1:00:18Ronald Winters, agent for a Christopher
1:00:21Pervvis Architects applicant, requests
1:00:24approval for an archaeological
1:00:25monitoring plan for installation of 230
1:00:27ft of a proposed new water man and
1:00:30electrical line in the alley ray at 107
1:00:34East Palace Avenue in the historic
1:00:36downtown archaeological review.
1:00:40For the staff report, Lauren, anything
1:00:42to
1:00:44expand upon in what you've raised here?
1:00:47I have to be swarming.
1:00:50>> Go ahead.
1:00:50>> Why don't you swear?
1:00:52>> Just go ahead and
1:00:53>> um uh Yes, Cher. Um I would wanted to
1:00:57point out on page two, um if you could
1:01:00please update the code, uh reference to
1:01:04the new chapter 14
1:01:07>> which is that is specified in the staff
1:01:12report.
1:01:13>> Yes. again as
1:01:15>> you know I will send that to you
1:01:17tomorrow.
1:01:18>> Okay. Um and on page 14, if we could get
1:01:24uh staff would request clarification and
1:01:26expansion um of the section on urban
1:01:29development uh within the time frame
1:01:32following the playfield playbook revolt
1:01:34and prior to Spanish reoccupation of the
1:01:37area
1:01:39>> and uh which
1:01:40>> on page 14
1:01:42>> but which
1:01:43>> it's the it is the second and third
1:01:46paragraphs. Got it. I think mostly the
1:01:48third paragraph.
1:01:49>> Okay.
1:01:51>> Um and then on page 25,
1:01:55uh it dates the development over the
1:01:59past 30 years. Um and we just want to
1:02:02clarify whether or not that's 30 years
1:02:05or um if that fits within the last 50
1:02:08historical year time frame
1:02:10>> on p on page 25.
1:02:12>> 25. Mhm.
1:02:16And if you could just clarify,
1:02:18it's the first paragraph.
1:02:21>> Oh, got it. Okay.
1:02:24And that is all from staff.
1:02:25>> Thank you, Lauren. I would suggest that
1:02:28probably he mentions 30 years because
1:02:30that's about the age of the ordinance
1:02:32profession and maybe to actually do
1:02:36something in the city of Santa Fe.
1:02:39>> If you would, but you can make that
1:02:40clear.
1:02:41>> Okay.
1:02:45All right. So, they'll have to be
1:02:46identified with sworn name, please.
1:02:49>> Please state your name and address for
1:02:51the record.
1:02:52>> Ron Winters, 109 Kala, Santa Fe, New
1:02:55Mexico 505.
1:02:57>> Thank you, Ron. Do you solemnly declare
1:02:59and affirm the testimony you have in
1:03:01residence? Do these items are the truth,
1:03:03global truth, and uh do this under the
1:03:06penalties of perjury?
1:03:08>> I do.
1:03:08>> Thank you. has been sworn.
1:03:12>> All right, Ron,
1:03:14what do you need to know?
1:03:15>> Well, a couple things. One, u I was feel
1:03:19fortunate enough to found
1:03:22through John Murphy the hippie on this
1:03:25property. And uh one thing I wanted to
1:03:29mention that his the date of the form is
1:03:32three years into the future. at the very
1:03:35top he has December 30th of 2026.
1:03:39So disregard that because he did say
1:03:42later where below that date of the
1:03:44survey was 2020. But uh yeah before you
1:03:48caught it I pointed that out. The other
1:03:51thing is uh in my um NCS uh reference at
1:03:57the back I did not put the citation in
1:04:00the references. I missed that. Well, but
1:04:05um and one other thing um
1:04:09boy this is a busy area. I mean I think
1:04:12105 sites within 500 meters
1:04:16and um as I stated I I could count at
1:04:20least seven that were in or over
1:04:22overlapped it. Uh what I do before in
1:04:26construction is I'm going to try and
1:04:28find those site forms because we all
1:04:31know that in Nimrist it doesn't really
1:04:34necessarily depict the site boundaries.
1:04:37But uh I I'd like to look at those site
1:04:39forms or the site maps and see how they
1:04:44really impact the project area.
1:04:47>> Yeah.
1:04:48>> Need to do that?
1:04:49>> No. No. I and that will be done before
1:04:51you know any construction
1:04:53>> and staff over there are happy to scan
1:04:55things that haven't been scanned yet if
1:04:57you just identify to them what they
1:05:00need.
1:05:00>> Yeah. Yeah. Bridget was
1:05:04great and help has helped me out before.
1:05:07One last thing that I just found out
1:05:09today. One of the contractors uh on the
1:05:13project [gasps]
1:05:15contacted me because
1:05:17the uh 107 East Palace, the Rainbow Man,
1:05:22that building does not have heat.
1:05:24There's a problem with the gas line.
1:05:27And so uh what I would do I normally say
1:05:31in my proposals that if the route or
1:05:34scope of work changes I always you know
1:05:38report that in the final report but I
1:05:40just wanted to give you a heads up. It's
1:05:42it's a it's a trench that will intersect
1:05:46what I'm already monitoring and it's 20
1:05:48additional feet that for the gas line
1:05:52that it will add. But since I found out
1:05:55this information today, I thought I'd
1:05:57share it with you and let you know that
1:05:59of course that monitoring would be
1:06:03reported
1:06:04along with the the other utility lines
1:06:07that are going to be, you know,
1:06:09installed. But uh yeah, it's a a short
1:06:12distance. So it would take it up to 250
1:06:14ft, I guess.
1:06:18And yeah, I can I can leave this I can
1:06:20supply you with but uh yeah, this was
1:06:23information as of this afternoon.
1:06:27So I'm I'm glad I found that out before
1:06:31um
1:06:33I think that's I think that's it.
1:06:38Welcome your
1:06:42>> member trees.
1:06:45Um, I have uh a question for staff
1:06:50regarding their
1:06:53uh comment about codes.
1:06:56Um, and
1:06:59um,
1:07:01God, I hate this. Um the uh reference
1:07:07that you're um saying needs to be
1:07:11changed, Lauren, is regarding which
1:07:14which uh
1:07:18first off, which reference are you
1:07:20referring to? Uh because there's two
1:07:23references to codes in the staff
1:07:25recommendations.
1:07:27And also when you say the new code, what
1:07:32what do you mean?
1:07:35um the um uh the new chapter 14
1:07:40um and it is so on page two um the city
1:07:45of Santa Fe ordinance is references
1:07:4814-3.13
1:07:51um and in the city of Santa Fe um code
1:07:57it should reflect 14-4.2D
1:08:00archaeological clearance permit
1:08:02required.
1:08:05Okay.
1:08:06Now, once again, when you say new code,
1:08:09which one
1:08:11what what are you talking about? Because
1:08:14we're still developing a new code,
1:08:16right? We don't have a an accepted new
1:08:19code. So, you're not referring to that.
1:08:20Is that correct?
1:08:23>> It's on our on our site. It says chapter
1:08:2514 new,
1:08:28>> which is
1:08:29>> so it's the most current revised code.
1:08:32Yeah, that was the one that was adopted
1:08:34November 2025.
1:08:36That was phase one of the code update.
1:08:39>> I I [laughter]
1:08:41[gasps]
1:08:42uh as I know, you know, we're going to
1:08:45go into the weeds on this for a little
1:08:47bit. I thought we had another shot at
1:08:50reviewing that before it was accepted.
1:08:55>> Oh, there's going to be
1:08:56>> I don't believe we had any more than one
1:08:58review of that. So, I'm a little I'm
1:09:01confused because I know that when you go
1:09:04online, it says the new code, but
1:09:08I don't I don't know that we've signed
1:09:12off on that.
1:09:15>> Well, we did, Tom. It's Think of it as
1:09:18an interim iteration of code. It's not
1:09:22the old code and it's not the it's going
1:09:25to be the new new code. It's the thing
1:09:28in between. We're supposed to play by
1:09:30this interim set of rules because
1:09:34there was a presentation and a hearing
1:09:37and a vote to approve
1:09:41in
1:09:43>> November
1:09:43>> November of 2025 as Heather pointed out.
1:09:48>> Yeah. Okay. Well, I mean, I thought we
1:09:50were going to get another chance at it,
1:09:52too. Uh
1:09:54>> that was just
1:09:55>> because we will when it's phase two
1:09:58because that's the actual new new code
1:10:00that has yet to be reviewed and
1:10:02approved.
1:10:05>> How can anybody do anything?
1:10:10Uh
1:10:11>> okay. Uh it's very confusing. Uh I can
1:10:15see why Ron would make a mistake. I can
1:10:17see why I would make a mistake. Uh
1:10:21maybe one day we'll actually have
1:10:22something that refers to the code. Um
1:10:27other than that, um because that was my
1:10:30main question about
1:10:32uh Ron's report. Um, it took me a little
1:10:36while, Rod, to figure out where we were
1:10:38talking about cuz there's not very many
1:10:40maps and the uh the plat of the alleyway
1:10:45doesn't really show very much in in its
1:10:50um location that I can tell. But um I
1:10:54eventually figured out that we were
1:10:56talking about the building that the shed
1:10:59was in. But um I don't know, maybe I
1:11:02just was being dumb as I often am.
1:11:09So that's my
1:11:12>> that's my only
1:11:14>> I can give you some better
1:11:16locationational information in the in
1:11:18the final report if that
1:11:21>> Yeah, that would be better. Yeah.
1:11:26Thank you.
1:11:28>> That's all. Okay, member majesty.
1:11:32>> Uh, only comment I had was that I
1:11:35couldn't locate the nimris map server
1:11:38check map.
1:11:40Um, so it be nice to have that in the
1:11:46in the plan.
1:11:49>> Yeah. When I certainly will do that in
1:11:52part because as we heard tonight, it it
1:11:55changed a little bit. Yeah. Too.
1:11:57[snorts] So yeah,
1:12:00>> I appreciate the discussion of previous
1:12:03research, but the map really is kind of
1:12:06critical to following along.
1:12:08>> Yeah.
1:12:09>> To read this, I had to actually follow
1:12:11it up on the computer screen.
1:12:14>> Got it. Got it. Got it.
1:12:15>> And that's not fair to staff because
1:12:16they can't do that.
1:12:21>> So you need to have the stuff in the
1:12:24document.
1:12:25>> Got it.
1:12:26>> Sorry. Anything else?
1:12:27>> Nothing.
1:12:30>> Um,
1:12:33she stepped on the only thing that I had
1:12:35to say, which was
1:12:38the empress. Um,
1:12:44and you can't fix it, but I will go
1:12:46ahead and be teething
1:12:49on. No,
1:12:54I am sick of death of engineers and
1:12:57architects producing crappy maps with
1:13:00crap you can't find
1:13:03and burying a north arrow in the middle
1:13:05of the depicted information.
1:13:07There's a beautiful open space in the
1:13:10lower right hand corner where you should
1:13:12put all of your
1:13:14map legend related stuff. Okay. I also
1:13:18detest the sloppy use of
1:13:23a measurement equals a measurement. And
1:13:26after it's been reproduced two or three
1:13:28times, it tells me nothing whatsoever.
1:14:34505
1:14:3531655
1:14:3804. Please leave a message. Thank you so

1:16:15Ron Winters, agent for Weston Glass for
1:16:18Homewise Tiiera 3APM.
1:16:24Applicant requests approval for an
1:16:26archaeological monitoring plan for
1:16:27installation of 1110 ft of new
1:16:29electrical line in the vicinity of Po
1:16:31del Soul and Hava Drive and Po Deloul
1:16:35and Jaguar Drive in the suburban
1:16:38archaeological review districts. Thank
1:16:40you for the staff report. Lauren,
1:16:42anything to add?
1:16:45Um just the um code reference update on
1:16:50page four
1:16:53>> to reflect to reflect the um reference
1:16:57of the new chapter 14
1:17:00>> which does appear in your staff report
1:17:02but again if it hasn't been shared.
1:17:05>> Yes.
1:17:19Yes, I see.
1:17:24We have the same.
1:17:26>> Okay. 313.
1:17:29Fix it.
1:17:35>> All right.
1:17:36You're still sworn in.
1:17:39This is Yes. Weston Glass from Home Wise
1:17:41and he'd like to talk after I make a
1:17:44couple comments and Weston would like to
1:17:46>> Okay. Be sworn in.
1:17:47>> Yeah.
1:17:48>> Please wait your raise your right hand
1:17:50and state your name and address for the
1:17:51record.
1:17:52>> Weston Glass 1301 Salor Road Santa.
1:17:57>> Do you solemnly declare and affirm the
1:17:59testimony you have in reference to this
1:18:01item? Is the truth the whole truth and
1:18:02do this under the penalties of perjury?
1:18:04>> I do.
1:18:05>> Thank you. It's been sworn chair.
1:18:07>> All right. Thank you, sir.
1:18:09>> So, um have the floor.
1:18:11>> Yeah, this uh there was one site that I
1:18:13I noticed that uh overlays the project
1:18:17area 54778,
1:18:19which was a Hannerford site from 86. Uh
1:18:22since that site was recorded, there's a
1:18:25sidewalk in now the um the Po day, not
1:18:32not Soul, but Hetta Drive. And I would
1:18:37uh as I suggested we'll see if there's
1:18:41any messages of it left if there are um
1:18:46um remap it and probably possibly test
1:18:49you know for elig eligibility. Um, there
1:18:53are two other sites that are in
1:18:55proximity to the project area. And
1:18:57again, like with the previous report, I
1:18:59would look at the site maps for 54779
1:19:03and 54785,
1:19:05which is Camino de los Kados and uh that
1:19:09uh if it's that portion still exists is
1:19:12over the fence
1:19:14beyond the the fire station.
1:19:18And uh again, I would investigate to see
1:19:22I doubt that that you know would be in
1:19:27the project area. There's a short
1:19:28section that we're doing on Jaguar Drive
1:19:31there in Po Doul. So uh just those
1:19:38things I think for for now but I will
1:19:41investigate the two that are in
1:19:43proximity and the one that overlaps
1:19:50>> sure members of committee thank you for
1:19:53hearing our case so just to uh explain a
1:19:56little bit what's happening here we came
1:19:58back we were here in March getting our
1:20:00monitoring plan for the tier content uh
1:20:02spine infrastructure approved And this
1:20:06is for PNM's [snorts] connection into
1:20:09that project. This is work that will be
1:20:12performed by PNM or by their own
1:20:15internal contractors. But um because we
1:20:17already have Mr. Winters doing our
1:20:19monitoring plan, we offered to have him
1:20:23do the monitoring for their scope on
1:20:26their behalf. um just to keep it all
1:20:28under one person, simplify things and uh
1:20:33saves us a little bit of money if they
1:20:34don't do it as well. So, I just wanted
1:20:36to say that um everywhere that they are
1:20:40proposing work here is within developed
1:20:43roadways, mostly under sidewalks, but in
1:20:46a couple cases it crosses the entrance
1:20:48to the fire station and the entrance to
1:20:50Nina Elementary School. So um because
1:20:54this is area that's already been
1:20:56disturbed by the development of these
1:20:58roadways as the um public utility
1:21:00easements exist under the sidewalk in
1:21:03both at both ends. Um we feel that
1:21:05boring is the appropriate
1:21:09approach for this and because we don't
1:21:11want to trench and block off entrance to
1:21:14the fire station and the elementary
1:21:16school as well.
1:21:20>> Cool.
1:21:22Fair enough.
1:21:25>> Member Majesty,
1:21:27>> I have no comments in this.
1:21:31>> Member Trace.
1:21:33Uh
1:21:36so uh
1:21:39the
1:21:41the scope of work calls for a couple of
1:21:44uh bore pits
1:21:46uh 5 by seven but no
1:21:49uh depth. Do we know what the depth is
1:21:53or did it just get left out or
1:21:57is that to be determined in the field?
1:22:00This would be on page four
1:22:03of the report or of the plan
1:22:09and it continues the last paragraph.
1:22:13>> Yeah, the pull box. Um
1:22:18>> Oh, okay. Yeah. I'm sorry, Tom. was on
1:22:20the plan and I didn't catch that. Uh
1:22:23it's a 54 inch minimum.
1:22:26>> Okay.
1:22:29Yeah. It's not in the written part. Uh
1:22:33>> you're saying it's on
1:22:35>> it's on the plan in uh of that area on
1:22:40page eight.
1:22:46>> Okay.
1:22:54Okay, [clears throat]
1:22:56>> that's all.
1:22:58>> The final report.
1:23:06>> I see you're done, Tom.
1:23:10>> Yeah, that's it. I'm sorry. Yeah,
1:23:13>> words appeared on the screen, but I
1:23:15didn't actually hear you. So the entity
1:23:20that may or may not be AI heard you but
1:23:23I didn't.
1:23:25>> I have no comments. We can make a
1:23:28motion.
1:23:32>> It's a 2026 013169.
1:23:37Uh I move to approve the plan with the
1:23:40requested edits.
1:23:43>> Second.
1:23:45Moved and seconded. All in favor signify
1:23:47by saying I.
1:23:48>> I.
1:23:49>> I.
1:23:51>> I. Motion carries. Thank you. Thank you.
1:23:54>> Thank you.
1:23:55>> Ronnie, you're still in the hot seat.
1:23:56>> Okay.
1:23:57>> Page number 20263172.
1:24:02Ron Winter's agent for Roshelle Aeta for
1:24:04Lumen. Applicant requests approval of an
1:24:06archeological monitoring plan for
1:24:08installation of 750 ft of the proposed
1:24:12new fiber optic line in the vicinity of
1:24:15498 North Gualupa Street in the river
1:24:17and trail.
1:24:20Thank you for your
1:24:23staff report.
1:24:26Anything to add?
1:24:29>> Um yes, chair. Uh again, if we could
1:24:32revise the code referenced on page five,
1:24:34please um to update and match the
1:24:36chapter 14 new um and then as well as uh
1:24:41expand on the clarity of historic
1:24:43development time frame um whether that
1:24:46be the 30-year or the 50-year.
1:24:49And I'm so sorry, but I cannot
1:24:53page that is on
1:25:15Uh that is on page 26. Got it.
1:25:24Okay,
1:25:27>> Ron, you have four. Um, as I do when I
1:25:31get this kind of of
1:25:34request for a bore, I
1:25:38within the historic downtown, I I always
1:25:41talk the people that traffic control and
1:25:44the traffic, you know, the engineers
1:25:46there and they're requesting this. So
1:25:50we might have to
1:25:53shut down part of um se de paralta in
1:25:57this area because of the entrances to
1:25:59the devar center and the amount of
1:26:02traffic that goes through there. They
1:26:04would be as in the last project boring
1:26:09under the sidewalk.
1:26:11Um
1:26:13I uh I didn't go into great depth rather
1:26:17with the
1:26:20[clears throat] with Sandborn maps yet
1:26:22but I will expand on that in a final
1:26:24report you know to just to show how that
1:26:27that area has changed over time
1:26:31>> if the sandborns even cover that area.
1:26:34>> Yeah. I don't know. I'll see about early
1:26:37aerials if I can.
1:26:39You might be in the fridge area for
1:26:41sandborn. Yeah. The aerials will be
1:26:44>> important,
1:26:45>> right?
1:26:45>> And if you can see those before you
1:26:47start,
1:26:50>> that would be good.
1:26:51>> Yeah. Yeah.
1:26:55>> All right. Here. You have nothing else?
1:26:58>> Not really.
1:26:58>> Member Trace.
1:27:00>> Uh,
1:27:03no comment.
1:27:05>> All right. never messed
1:27:09>> again. It's missing the Nest map server
1:27:11check.
1:27:14Make sure that's in the final report.
1:27:15>> Got it.
1:27:19>> Yeah, Shelby. Normally I would end up
1:27:23because of things do change. In fact,
1:27:26you'll see a report next month on P liar
1:27:30at 1323
1:27:32where in the field on the fly they
1:27:35changed the route
1:27:37and uh I in that report I'm including
1:27:41the old route but I'm including a new
1:27:45aerial showing exactly where they did go
1:27:49just for your benefit so you can see
1:27:51both and that's what you know will go
1:27:54into nucress. Yes.
1:27:56>> Yeah.
1:28:00>> That's all.
1:28:02>> Yeah. Thank you for that. And
1:28:05presenting the as builds
1:28:09is always a good idea.
1:28:11>> Yeah.
1:28:11>> And
1:28:13if it's a major variation from what was
1:28:19I think it would be good to have a
1:28:20little bit of discussion of that and
1:28:22show both. This is what we thought and
1:28:26this is what we did.
1:28:27>> Yeah.
1:28:27>> And present all of that with
1:28:29explanation,
1:28:30>> right?
1:28:30>> So it's clear to everybody who reads
1:28:34this in the future that things were not
1:28:38always as they seem. Well, in in fact
1:28:42what you'll see on 1323
1:28:45that intersection of Dangaspar and Pio
1:28:48de Bralta when they did the locates I
1:28:50mean it was like spiderweb you know and
1:28:53and so what they did a more direct route
1:28:56from 1323 across to the median and then
1:28:59to the manhole and uh but it was made a
1:29:03decision some bitty staff was out there
1:29:06I mean it didn't wasn't wasn't just the
1:29:09contractor But uh that's why I'm
1:29:12including both so you can see how we
1:29:15change because that also also changed
1:29:18the the length
1:29:20>> slightly. Yeah.
1:29:23>> All right. We can have a motion
1:29:28>> for case 2026 013172.
1:29:33I move to approve the plan the requested
1:29:35edits.
1:29:37>> Second.
1:29:39moved and seconded. All in favor signify
1:29:42by saying I.
1:29:43>> I.
1:29:44>> I.
1:29:46I. Motion carries. Don't be wrong.
1:29:48>> Thank you guys. We'll see you next month
1:29:50and thank you always for your comments
1:29:54and suggestions,
1:29:57>> which were hopefully helpful.
1:29:58>> No, they they are. They really are.
1:30:16Thank you.
1:30:17>> What? You didn't want to watch us until
1:30:20now.
1:30:24>> Go ahead.
1:30:25>> We feel slighted. It's like you came in
1:30:27for the encore and missed the whole
1:30:38>> Okay, we're ready for case number
1:30:40202613185.
1:30:44China Environmental Research and
1:30:46Consulting Agent for EV fiber applicant
1:30:49requests approval for projectwide
1:30:51archaeological monitoring plan for
1:30:531,70,811
1:30:56linear feet in all archaeological
1:30:58districts, including historic downtown,
1:31:00suburban, and riverlanding trails
1:31:01archaeological review district.
1:31:05also proposed an archaeological
1:31:07monitoring plan for 1,00 excuse me
1:31:11138,880
1:31:13feet of fiber optic line for area 1 FDA
1:31:177 west in the suburban archaeological
1:31:20review district
1:31:23I didn't see a staff report
1:31:26>> yes chair that's that's odd um did they
1:31:29get the electronic version
1:31:31>> so did you get it in your um in your
1:31:34packet
1:31:35version. Actually, no. In your digital
1:31:37packet. Oh, jeez. Oh, jeez. Sorry. Um I
1:31:41can
1:31:43>> just hold forth as long as you need to
1:31:45to convey whatever it is you had to say.
1:31:48>> And and Sherik, I did share the staff
1:31:49report with um the consultant so they
1:31:52they have a copy. Uh the
1:31:56so the background is that a while back
1:31:59this group came to the ARC to talk about
1:32:02how they were going to do the project
1:32:05because it is a lot of line and a lot of
1:32:08work that's being done across the city
1:32:10in all of the archaeological review
1:32:12districts. So uh therefore there was
1:32:15some agreement that there would be an
1:32:18overall monitoring plan which part of
1:32:20this is being proposed and then
1:32:23addendums for the individual projects
1:32:26that they do throughout. So the overall
1:32:29monitoring plan is sort of zoomed out at
1:32:32the regional level and then the
1:32:34individual plans like as you see in this
1:32:38packet for the first um FDA7 monitoring
1:32:42plan provides additional context
1:32:44specific to that area and additional
1:32:46information. So uh the so there will be
1:32:50two items for consideration. That is
1:32:53that the overall monitoring plant
1:32:55covering the over million um linear feet
1:32:58of fiber installation and then that
1:33:02second um sub area for area one of FDA
1:33:067. staff recommends approval of the
1:33:11report subject to clearance um provided
1:33:15or subject to comments and um conditions
1:33:19required by the AR and I'm sorry that
1:33:20you I'll email this to you so that you
1:33:23can have it.
1:33:25>> Excellent.
1:33:28Oh, and there's um sorry, chair, there
1:33:31was some confusion on city of Santa Fe
1:33:34land, which I think is within the city
1:33:37Santa Fe boundary. So, because otherwise
1:33:39it's some people could confuse it as
1:33:41city land when it's not city land. So,
1:33:43there were a couple cases. So, just take
1:33:46a look at that.
1:33:49>> That's it.
1:33:50>> Okay. Thank you.
1:33:54Um,
1:33:56I know at least one of you will be
1:33:58talking. How many of the other folks
1:34:00will be talking because everybody who
1:34:02talks needs to be identified and sworn
1:34:04in?
1:34:04>> Yeah. Um, I just wanted to say something
1:34:07if it's possible.
1:34:08>> Um, not until you're sworn in. Are are
1:34:10you going to speak for the anything in
1:34:12the hearing? So, if you're going to
1:34:13speak, uh, raise your right hand and
1:34:15then we can get swear you all in
1:34:17together. Okay. So, um I will um if
1:34:20you'll go through and uh would you like
1:34:22a chair? You can come sit up right over
1:34:24here if you're gonna
1:34:26>> come on over. I have an extra chair here

1:36:09sure that we do a good job across the
1:36:10board. So, I just wanted to say that to
1:36:12everyone in the room.
1:36:14Thank you.
1:36:15>> Thank you.
1:36:18>> Okay. Um well, so Heather gave the
1:36:22background on the plan. Thank you. Um
1:36:24and so today we have given you the fruit
1:36:27of our conversation, many months of
1:36:29work, many months of hard work with the
1:36:31engineering team, you know, at Easy
1:36:33Fiber, figuring out exactly what this
1:36:36project is going to look like. Um, and
1:36:39we have before you our general plan
1:36:41which we in which we try to give a scope
1:36:44of the overall project. When we're
1:36:45asking you to approve the general plan,
1:36:47it's not to approve monitoring for 1
1:36:49million ft. It's just to approve the
1:36:51framework that we're working in. Um, the
1:36:54general plan, as you saw, lays out our
1:36:56methodology for area selection. It lays
1:36:59out a broad environmental and uh
1:37:02cultural background for the city and
1:37:04flags the things that we'll be looking
1:37:06for in every area right land grants as a
1:37:09roads all the important things that
1:37:11we'll be looking at when we zoom down to
1:37:13the um FDA or sub FDA level. Um it also
1:37:18lays out in detail our monitoring
1:37:20methodology
1:37:21uh that we also came to after our
1:37:24discussions uh member Madison you
1:37:26weren't here but through our discussions
1:37:27with the rest of the committee um about
1:37:30you know what we need to profile and our
1:37:32profiling plans and all the details of
1:37:34our of our monitoring plans and then FDA
1:37:387 West gives you an example that we
1:37:41think I think every addendum is going to
1:37:43look different depending on the area but
1:37:46this is a a general generally the model
1:37:48that we hope will work for the ARC and
1:37:50that we plan to implement as we move
1:37:51along.
1:37:53>> Did you want to add anything?
1:37:57>> I would just like to add that this area
1:37:59one is probably our largest area that
1:38:02we'll be presenting to you is a very
1:38:03large area and every area after this
1:38:09um and I think we put rationale in there
1:38:12for why we chose this scale um for this
1:38:15first one. Uh, we did also find a couple
1:38:18of typos as we were looking through
1:38:21here. Um, I I think we cited the old
1:38:24plan, the old code.
1:38:27We'll fix that. We also have a typo in
1:38:29the years on Pylo
1:38:32which you know put 1300 to 1350 instead
1:38:35of 1,200 I think. So for that I know it
1:38:39wasn't occupied for only 50 years.
1:38:43Oh,
1:38:44>> and also there we had an appendix here
1:38:49in FDA in area one from John Murphy
1:38:53>> and some of the formatting um of his
1:38:56figures didn't come out that well. So
1:38:59that's something we're going to ask him
1:39:00to fix.
1:39:02That's another
1:39:05formatting issue. But in terms of like
1:39:08our general approach, I think
1:39:11that's all we wanted to
1:39:13layout at the onset unless easy wants to
1:39:17say anything
1:39:19else.
1:39:23>> Cool.
1:39:27>> A tremendous amount of work.
1:39:33>> Member Trace, can I bother you to be
1:39:36first?
1:39:37>> Sure. Um, so,
1:39:40uh, I I'm glad, you know, this was
1:39:44really easy to read. Uh, I want to I
1:39:47want to congratulate you on presenting a
1:39:50a plan that was simple to follow in its
1:39:54sort of complexity
1:39:56because this is going to be a really
1:39:59wild job.
1:40:00uh you'll have an opportunity to find uh
1:40:03things because you'll be working all
1:40:05through the city uh that you know I mean
1:40:10it's going to be uh really cool for you
1:40:14guys uh people should be envious of your
1:40:18position
1:40:20not of how much work you're going to
1:40:21have to do but you're going to be able
1:40:24to see things that other people won't.
1:40:26So getting to what I have questions
1:40:29about. So FDA7 is u our first uh area
1:40:35that we're going to be working with and
1:40:37you've split that into two major
1:40:39sections east and west and will
1:40:43you present I mean uh and then I noticed
1:40:48that that itself is broken into a lot of
1:40:51little blocks. Uh how
1:40:55how do you
1:40:57uh so those little blocks within FDA7
1:41:00east are uh the work areas that will be
1:41:06worked on individually through the
1:41:09months that you're figuring FDA7 will
1:41:12take or weeks I guess months
1:41:17you said 23 weeks I
1:41:23Yes. Anybody?
1:41:24>> I mean, I think that's more of a
1:41:26question for Easy Fiber, uh, because
1:41:28that's the an engineering breakdown.
1:41:31>> Yeah, I can shed some light there, sir,
1:41:32for you. Um, so the FDA is the larger
1:41:36area, project area, right? So, FDA 7
1:41:39West we will be starting in and then
1:41:42each of the smaller, call them project
1:41:44areas, we call them segments, right? Uh
1:41:47and that's how we break it out uh for
1:41:50construction purposes as well as more
1:41:52than anything permitting purposes,
1:41:54right? Instead of having a big blanket
1:41:57area permit, uh it also helps us with
1:42:00lining out the different crews to not
1:42:02overwhelm one area, right? Break it into
1:42:04smaller segments so that they have their
1:42:06assigned area. Um and FDA, for those who
1:42:11don't know, fiber distribution area, uh
1:42:14is what FDA stands for, the acronym. So
1:42:17hopefully that provides a little bit of
1:42:20clarity for you at this point.
1:42:22>> Yeah, it does. And so that will allow
1:42:24the archaeologist to uh monitor smaller.
1:42:29You're not going to be working on all of
1:42:31them or even more than one at a time. Um
1:42:34that will allow the archaeologist to
1:42:36monitor those sections individually. And
1:42:40um uh at at the time that you're
1:42:43installing that fiber, will you be
1:42:46installing
1:42:48individual homeowners as well or just
1:42:51the main uh trunk that the homeowners
1:42:54will then
1:42:56uh plug into at some point?
1:43:00>> Uh so we won't be installing the
1:43:03homeowners right off the bat. The
1:43:05construction process is a process to say
1:43:09the least. Um so we can really break it
1:43:11down into two
1:43:14uh areas. One is our backbone fiber,
1:43:16right? Which is our let's call it the
1:43:19main core route. And then from there we
1:43:22distribute off of that main core route
1:43:24into the neighborhoods. Once we're done
1:43:27with that distribution in the
1:43:28neighborhoods, then we have one more run
1:43:30that's done by our installation team.
1:43:32Once construction is complete, uh
1:43:35customer, a resident want service, they
1:43:38would call us, get them scheduled, uh
1:43:40send out our installation team and they
1:43:43won't run one single fiber to the actual
1:43:46home to provide the actual internet
1:43:49service to that particular resident or
1:43:51address.
1:43:53So that is not part of this uh reporting
1:43:58or anything that the archaeologists are
1:44:00going to be monitoring. That's a
1:44:01completely separate thing that um then I
1:44:05don't know whether you know land use
1:44:07will tell you whether you have to permit
1:44:09that separately or whatever. I don't
1:44:10know. That's not my problem right now.
1:44:13Uh back to uh our uh our archaeologist
1:44:19presenters. Um
1:44:22the are you anticipating doing
1:44:27uh I think I've read in in your u main
1:44:32outline report that you're anticipating
1:44:34uh somewhere 12 to 14 maybe a few more
1:44:38maybe up to 16 different reports. Is
1:44:41that right?
1:44:43So
1:44:43>> yeah, that's
1:44:44>> it might be it might be FDA7 will get
1:44:47two different reports, one for the west
1:44:49and one for the east. And you'd kind of
1:44:52track that as depending on how complex
1:44:55the next areas get. Uh that will
1:44:58determine how how many reports you make
1:45:00for each area.
1:45:03>> Exactly.
1:45:04>> Fair understanding.
1:45:06>> Yeah. We'll use the methodology that we
1:45:07laid out in the general plan to select
1:45:10the next area and we'll think ahead to
1:45:13the overall project to decide that as we
1:45:15go. So in this plan, we gave you FDA
1:45:17West with an actual plan and at the end
1:45:20of FDA West, we presented FDA East,
1:45:23which will be our next area, and we
1:45:25provided a justification for that,
1:45:27showing the fiber that's going in there,
1:45:29the pre and the previous research that's
1:45:32been done to to explain kind of why we
1:45:36think that that's an appropriate area to
1:45:38continue into next.
1:45:41>> Okay, great. And then our next the next
1:45:43plan that we submit will be for FDA7
1:45:46East.
1:45:49>> And do you think you'll have a report
1:45:51before you present the plan or will you
1:45:53just wait until the whole FDA7 is done
1:45:56and then move on to the next one and
1:45:58work on FDA7 as in those two reports
1:46:02while the next phase is going on or how
1:46:05how do you anticipate that?
1:46:08I think we're probably going to need to
1:46:10have parallel tracks. We're going to
1:46:12have to do the plans and the reports
1:46:13simultaneously once we get started.
1:46:17>> Huh. Okay.
1:46:17>> Yeah. I don't I don't anticipate that we
1:46:19would finish reporting on FDA West
1:46:22before we started FDA East. The idea FDA
1:46:257 east the idea is that we'll kind of
1:46:27start these going and as we start to get
1:46:30the data in for a complete FDA then
1:46:32we'll start the writing as we are also
1:46:35working in other parts of the city.
1:46:37Okay. So, we can anticipate a bunch of
1:46:39plans first and then we'll get reports
1:46:42as as you can complete them.
1:46:45>> Exactly. Yeah.
1:46:47>> And they will correlate plan. So, area
1:46:50one plan will have area one report.
1:46:54>> Right. Right. Okay.
1:46:57>> Well, that's all I got.
1:47:01>> Thank you, Tom. bad or something.
1:47:04>> I I didn't have any comments that was
1:47:07very thorough. Thank you.
1:47:12>> You must have done really well.
1:47:14[laughter]
1:47:18your host.
1:47:20>> Yeah,
1:47:25>> I'm a travel day. So, I do everything on
1:47:29paper and
1:47:32I was all the way up to page 46 before I
1:47:35saw an editorial thing and that almost
1:47:38never happens.
1:47:41Um the last line above figure 12
1:47:48although open terrain continues
1:47:50southwestern Srios road and south of
1:47:53that area there's something missing
1:47:55there continues something
1:47:59>> and I'm thinking along or
1:48:03whatever southwestern Sus Road
1:48:05>> the open train
1:48:06>> yeah I think it should be maybe
1:48:08southwest along it should be southwest
1:48:10along
1:48:14Fair enough.
1:48:16Um, is this thing
1:48:20>> already in the hands of HPD?
1:48:22>> No.
1:48:23>> And so it will be after
1:48:25>> after you approve. Um,
1:48:31just maybe to save yourself some time, I
1:48:34would excerpt the section discussing
1:48:38human remains and send it to Courtney
1:48:42and see if it meets all of the
1:48:45expectations. So, you can submit it one
1:48:48time to HPD instead of twice.
1:48:51Um, it makes sense to me, but it seems
1:48:53like there might be some things that
1:48:55they
1:48:57will want tweaked.
1:48:59>> Okay.
1:49:00>> And that's just me reassociating.
1:49:02>> Okay.
1:49:04>> Um,
1:49:06and something that Heather said now
1:49:10casts further light on my next comment,
1:49:12which is about collections and analysis
1:49:14of recovered material.
1:49:18When I read this, I thought it's all
1:49:19city property.
1:49:21But now I understand it's not all city
1:49:23property.
1:49:25>> So if it's city property, collections
1:49:30will be curated. They don't you don't
1:49:32need to encourage the owner to do so. So
1:49:34you might need to expand upon that
1:49:36section to speak to the fact that
1:49:39potentially multiple ownerships
1:49:41involved.
1:49:43>> I have a question about that. If it's a
1:49:45roadway easement, is it city property?
1:49:49Not necessarily. It's some I would say
1:49:5399% of this is city property and that
1:49:56it's city rightway, but there might be
1:49:58some areas that are, you know, either on
1:50:01the edge and not on the rightway or uh
1:50:05if it's a runway like a private road, we
1:50:07have those as well. And that's not city
1:50:10property.
1:50:13Well, I imagine Easy Fiber will need to
1:50:15know all that information before you
1:50:18start.
1:50:19>> Correct. And and with private roads, um
1:50:23unless we receive obviously permission
1:50:25to build down them, we won't be going
1:50:27down them.
1:50:28>> We would have to obtain uh easement in
1:50:31order to build down private roads. So,
1:50:33there would be legal communication and
1:50:35agreement in place for that to be to
1:50:37occur.
1:50:38>> Unfortunately, we don't have many of
1:50:39them.
1:50:40It's just along the edges where they
1:50:43were previously in the county and they
1:50:44come into the city.
1:50:46>> So we can assume most of the project
1:50:48will be on city ground.
1:50:50>> Yes,
1:50:52>> the vast majority
1:50:55and you already pointed out the
1:51:00citations to city code.
1:51:02>> Yeah,
1:51:04>> they occur in lots of different places.
1:51:06So you'll have to do some
1:51:09seeking and finding.
1:51:11>> No problem.
1:51:13>> So,
1:51:14thank you for the extensive glossery of
1:51:18all of these.
1:51:18>> Well, thank you for wonderful.
1:51:23>> Um,
1:51:26and so I made it all the way to page 11
1:51:28of the addendum before I found another
1:51:31editorial.
1:51:34Again, it's the last line on that page.
1:51:37And you'll know why I probably
1:51:41>> read it more closely.
1:51:45>> The last sentence,
1:51:47she identified one prehistoric and one
1:51:50historic roaded.
1:51:52And she identified one prehistoric site,
1:51:54LA49764,
1:51:57and one historic roaded LA49765.
1:52:01this word
1:52:03>> site
1:52:04>> and LA number
1:52:05>> mean chocolate come down to San
1:52:10um it also is the case that uh
1:52:16I was there
1:52:18>> you were on the site form but you were
1:52:20not in the report
1:52:22>> yeah if I just make the maps I don't get
1:52:25any credit so
1:52:29I also don't get paid
1:52:31There you go.
1:52:32>> Yes.
1:52:38>> Then we get into
1:52:41this Murphy's
1:52:43discussions.
1:52:44>> Yeah. We have a summary of Murphy's
1:52:46discussion and then we have Murphy's
1:52:47discussion. Yeah.
1:52:48>> Okay. On page 30, I think. Is this in
1:52:51the summary of
1:52:52>> Okay.
1:52:57>> It's the second to the last paragraph.
1:53:03compiled USGS topographic maps, etc.
1:53:08There's a reference to section 4
1:53:10containing scattered buildings, yada
1:53:12yada, but no figure reference. And when
1:53:15I looked on the compiled USGS
1:53:21quadrangles, I didn't see any scattered
1:53:24buildings unimproved. Well, I do see
1:53:26unimproved rows of tracks, but I didn't
1:53:28see any scattered buildings. So,
1:53:32if those scattered buildings show up in
1:53:34some other figure,
1:53:37>> you might add a figure reference. But if
1:53:40they if this is indeed referring to
1:53:42figure 11.
1:53:44>> Oh,
1:53:45>> section four contains no buildings.
1:53:48>> But yeah, section 33 contains building.
1:53:51>> Yes.
1:53:52>> And section 30 contains.
1:53:55So maybe we'll just change that.
1:54:04Um
1:54:08monitoring expectations page 37
1:54:13um
1:54:18second paragraph
1:54:24I think it's the sixth sentence
1:54:27beginning with the word offerings.
1:54:30things.
1:54:32I'm absolutely mystified what that
1:54:34sentence is seeking to say.
1:54:36>> Yes, I I wrote that. Um, this one
1:54:43>> I was referring to
1:54:49offerings that along so like ceramics,
1:54:54ceramic bowls, other sacred objects that
1:54:58often get offered along drainages or
1:55:01left along drainages.
1:55:04I'm very I was using words that we use
1:55:08at San Deono. So that could be
1:55:11clarified.
1:55:12>> Yeah, I get it because the reader won't
1:55:14know that you're talking about that kind
1:55:16of an offering.
1:55:17>> Yeah.
1:55:18>> So you'll have to expand upon that a
1:55:21bit.
1:55:21>> Yeah, they are related to
1:55:24death usually.
1:55:26>> So related to the burials,
1:55:28>> but yeah, I could expand on that.
1:55:33Okay. And I flipped through here too
1:55:36fast. I missed
1:55:39one on page 20 of the addendum.
1:55:43And you will know why I noticed this. Uh
1:55:47is the third line of the second
1:55:49paragraph has a misspelling.
1:55:54>> Page I'm sorry, page 20. also
1:56:08Alicia.
1:56:09>> You cast Alicia.
1:56:10>> I know.
1:56:12>> I guess it's supposed.
1:56:16>> Well, it is a spelling. I know. That's
1:56:19why it wasn't
1:56:21>> and appropriate to the neighborhood, but
1:56:24she's from Texas and
1:56:28>> it's a Ys. It's those kind of spelling
1:56:30errors that are not found.
1:56:33>> Yeah. No spell check.
1:56:35>> We'll have to take all other Alicia
1:56:37Alicia out of our dictionary.
1:56:40[laughter]
1:56:42>> Search by her last name. Make sure you
1:56:44get two and then you can look at the
1:56:47word.
1:56:49>> This is speaking from experience. Spell
1:56:51check just doesn't.
1:56:55>> So, have you noticed it changes? Um, an
1:56:59shootitz.
1:57:05>> That's that's unfortunate.
1:57:06>> Yeah.
1:57:09>> A former
1:57:11assistant and deputy commissioner, I
1:57:13think I know, last name was Jenx. J E N
1:57:17Ks.
1:57:19>> Belche always insisted it was jerks.
1:57:22[laughter]
1:57:25and sometimes
1:57:27right.
1:57:30>> So,
1:57:31thank you. This is wonderful. It's a
1:57:34tremendous amount of work and I
1:57:36appreciate all the hard thought you put
1:57:39into it.
1:57:41You came back asking us for
1:57:42clarification because we were
1:57:46not always clear. So, thank you for
1:57:48interpreting
1:57:50our
1:57:52sometimes
1:57:55unintelligible
1:57:57statements. You did a good job.
1:58:00>> Thank you.
1:58:01>> You guys did a good job.
1:58:08>> Absolutely.
1:58:08>> All right.
1:58:10That said, we can have a motion
1:58:13>> for case 2026 0135.
1:58:17I move to approve the monitoring plan
1:58:19with the requested.
1:58:23Second.
1:58:25>> Moved and seconded. All in favor signify
1:58:27by saying I.
1:58:29>> I.
1:58:29>> I.
1:58:31>> I. Motion carries unanimously.
1:58:34>> Thank you. Thank you.
1:58:36>> Thank you. Thank you. Appreciate it.
1:58:38Thank you. Thank you very much.
1:58:40>> Thank you.
1:58:41>> Thank you all. Thank you all.
1:58:44Yeah. We'll see you many times.
1:58:49Yeah. [laughter]
1:59:01Okay, next is administrative matters.
1:59:04>> Good evening. Thank you.
1:59:07>> But this deal database you're going to
1:59:10produce.
1:59:11>> Are you planning on publishing that?
1:59:16>> Publish it together. Well,
1:59:20otherwise some way of making it
1:59:22available because it has the potential
1:59:25of being a very good tool for anybody
1:59:29working anywhere in the city.
1:59:31>> Yeah. Yeah.
1:59:32>> And just to make it available would be
1:59:35>> Yeah.
1:59:35>> amazing.
1:59:37>> So I don't think about the best way to
1:59:39make it available.
1:59:42>> If nothing else, I would just beg you
1:59:45for a copy of it.
1:59:47We can do that. Yeah, it's going to be
1:59:49cool. We're gonna It's a really cool
1:59:51opportunity to be super comprehensive
1:59:54>> for the whole city. So,
1:59:56>> yeah, I'm excited.
1:59:57>> Here we go.
1:59:59>> See you guys. Bye.
2:00:01>> See you tomorrow.
2:00:02>> Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
2:00:10>> Administrative matters.
2:00:12>> Administrative matters. There are a
2:00:13couple of things. Um, do you want to go
2:00:14first?
2:00:16>> Sure. Um we wanted to stack wanted to
2:00:18make the um committee aware of an
2:00:21administrative approval for an emergency
2:00:23waterline. I think there were six
2:00:25waterline breaks um in the Suringo
2:00:29neighborhood. It was for the city of
2:00:30Santa Fe u for Paul under the um scope
2:00:33of Paul Durant. Um wanted to bring that
2:00:37to the committee's attention.
2:00:41>> Member Trice, that's the second email
2:00:43that you received today.
2:00:46is what they're referring to.
2:00:48>> And that's the map you were mystified
2:00:50about.
2:00:52>> Oh, is that it? Okay,
2:00:56there you go.
2:00:59>> Was that
2:01:04>> And so we're just being made aware of
2:01:06this, right?
2:01:08>> Yes. I
2:01:09>> mean, we don't have any anything to say
2:01:11about it. We don't need to say anything
2:01:13about it. So, are all of these water
2:01:16lines going to be replaced or
2:01:18>> I don't think so. I think they had six
2:01:20breaks and I think they are trying to
2:01:22address the issue and um
2:01:26>> Oh, okay. So, just at the location of
2:01:28the brakes is where
2:01:29>> I think so. Yeah. Um and they needed a
2:01:33um administrative approval letter to
2:01:35submit to ship as well. Um,
2:01:40>> and the map just gives a context just a
2:01:43visual area
2:01:44>> where the brakes are and
2:01:46>> it's just Yeah, the Seringo neighborhood
2:01:47is the kind of the scope of
2:01:51the project.
2:01:52>> Yeah.
2:01:55>> Yeah. Maybe what he can do is once they
2:01:58follow
2:02:00>> note where the work was done. Would that
2:02:02be something
2:02:04>> he's going to provide a report of the
2:02:05monitoring in any case? Okay.
2:02:07>> He'll tell us all about
2:02:08>> Okay.
2:02:09>> in great detail. Paul's all over it.
2:02:13>> All right.
2:02:14>> Miss Brownboy had some stuff next and
2:02:17then I also have some stuff after her.
2:02:21>> So, um, did you need all this to tell
2:02:22us?
2:02:23>> I did.
2:02:23>> Okay. Thank you. So, this the Santa
2:02:27Regional Airport is not located in our
2:02:29archaeological
2:02:30district. It's cut short, but it is
2:02:34owned by the cities. Okay.
2:02:37And so, um,
2:02:40there is going to be some testing that's
2:02:42going to be done, some wells for
2:02:44environmental assessments and
2:02:46groundwater, make sure that there's no
2:02:48environmental contamination
2:02:51um, at the airport. And I was just
2:02:54wondering whether this committee would
2:02:57want to see anything or whether um I I
2:03:02don't have access to Empress, so I don't
2:03:04know if there are sites out there that
2:03:06we would need to be concerned about. So
2:03:09this I'm just giving this to you now,
2:03:11but if you could let me know if there's
2:03:13any concerns and whether I should direct
2:03:16archaeological work to be done, um
2:03:22I would like
2:03:26>> [clears throat]
2:03:27>> It's not in our district.
2:03:30>> The only logical district for it is to
2:03:32put it in the river and trails because
2:03:36part of the property
2:03:39bus is the river.
2:03:41>> Right.
2:03:43>> What's the matter, buddy?
2:03:45>> Various iterations of Edamino Royale go
2:03:48right through the airport.
2:03:53Um,
2:03:56and
2:04:00I can imagine there's a number of sites
2:04:02in there and I have no idea if the
2:04:05totality of the project area of the
2:04:08property has been surveyed. Do you have
2:04:11any?
2:04:12>> I don't.
2:04:17So yeah,
2:04:19somehow or other we need to get you
2:04:21reliable access.
2:04:22>> I have an imprint account.
2:04:24>> Hey, it's working cuz last time we spoke
2:04:27it was
2:04:30>> it's touch and go, but yeah.
2:04:33>> So you can potentially answer that
2:04:36question.
2:04:36>> Yes.
2:04:38>> Okay, that's great. That's great to
2:04:40know. Thank you. Yeah. Now I'll just
2:04:42show you the map. I'm sorry, Tom. The
2:04:45Um, you can't see this, but Rivers and
2:04:48Trails goes along Airport Road and to
2:04:50the north of Airport Road. Um, so there
2:04:54is like a little blue area that's
2:04:56highlighted here. It's just a
2:05:00reclamation facility that's in the
2:05:02archaeological
2:05:04um, review district, but the entire
2:05:06airport with the exception of a small
2:05:08portion that's immediately adjacent to
2:05:10New Mexico 599 is um, outside and and
2:05:15might be something we would want to
2:05:16consider to do with the code update
2:05:20>> reach out and
2:05:22make a statement about what it which
2:05:25district is in because I can see
2:05:31that there could be an argument for
2:05:34splitting it
2:05:36>> because of the way the existing
2:05:38districts approach
2:05:41boundary of the property and
2:05:44And
2:05:47but
2:05:51gut feeling is put it all on river and
2:05:53trails because we already know the river
2:05:56is a consideration and we already know
2:05:59the trails are a consideration.
2:06:02Okay, we can do that
2:06:04>> because I think just off the top of my
2:06:07head, there's
2:06:11as many as a half a dozen potential
2:06:14alignments of Elanina Royale that cross
2:06:16the airport property.
2:06:20Uh, one of which I
2:06:24followed on foot
2:06:27to the southwestern corner of the
2:06:29property
2:06:32de las.
2:06:35>> Yeah, you can go.
2:06:37>> This got reused a lot by modern
2:06:39vehicles, but there's a chamino trace
2:06:42that comes right to that southwest
2:06:44front.
2:06:46It's right next to a heavily used more
2:06:50modern two track.
2:06:53So
2:06:55you might find a lot more evidence of
2:06:57Camino on the airport.
2:07:01>> And the study boundary you can see also
2:07:03includes unincorporated areas as well.
2:07:06So I don't know if I need to collaborate
2:07:08with our county partners
2:07:10or anybody
2:07:12you
2:07:12>> recommend.
2:07:13>> That's a darn good question.
2:07:18Since it's Does the city of Santa Fe own
2:07:22the airport?
2:07:23>> Yes. Therefore, property itself. Yes.
2:07:26>> Okay. Then it seems like
2:07:30the logical solution is for the county
2:07:32to say even though it's your baby, don't
2:07:35you worry about it because otherwise
2:07:38it's administrative nightmare.
2:07:41>> Okay. To
2:07:41>> have two people involved.
2:07:46Does
2:07:47the FAA presence involve like bringing
2:07:50any section 106 National Historic
2:07:52Preservation Act complaints?
2:07:54>> If it's a federal undertaking, it
2:07:58involves
2:08:00federal
2:08:01>> projects, permits, or money.
2:08:06>> Seems redundant, but
2:08:09um they could be involved.
2:08:13um this work
2:08:17with Santa Fe County,
2:08:27having worked for the FAA,
2:08:30um I will say they're usually clueless
2:08:34about actually doing something efficient
2:08:37and logical,
2:08:39>> but
2:08:41>> might need to know what that papers
2:08:45believes
2:08:47about
2:08:49whether it's operation as city of Santa
2:08:53Fe court falls under their jurisdiction
2:08:56sufficient that they want to get their
2:08:58fingers in this pie.
2:09:00I hate to ask the question, but
2:09:04sometimes one does need to ask instead
2:09:07of just ask for forgiveness later
2:09:11>> and I was just copied on some emails and
2:09:15saw this and I was like I need to ask
2:09:18you all. So I will follow up at the
2:09:21airport. It's the project is being
2:09:22managed managed by Desiree Ring at the
2:09:26airport
2:09:28and um
2:09:32and Terra is the consultant I I don't
2:09:35see like clearly whether you know what
2:09:38entities would be involved in the
2:09:40financing either. So I will um look into
2:09:43that
2:09:45>> county money county stuff on city budget
2:09:52>> facility that's under FAA operation
2:09:54permit
2:10:01>> okay
2:10:03>> okay
2:10:04so um
2:10:07the next thing I have for uh the radar
2:10:12proposal
2:10:14for uh the continue on from the Georgia
2:10:16O'Keefe thing that we were doing. Uh our
2:10:20proposal should be received next week
2:10:23and we will have a final answer for for
2:10:26you in the month of October. We also
2:10:29have our new historic preservation
2:10:31manager starting in October. So uh you
2:10:35will be introduced to him at the next as
2:10:38well. and we will have our calendar
2:10:41ready to be go for the 2027 calendar
2:10:46year for approval. Um we are going to
2:10:50since we have a lot on our plate coming
2:10:52up this uh coming year with uh
2:10:57new code um the easy fiber uh so we're
2:11:01going to have to do a lot of study
2:11:03sessions and everything. So we are going
2:11:06to go back to uh two meetings
2:11:10>> scheduling two meetings may or may not
2:11:12use the second one
2:11:14>> right
2:11:16>> try to hold it for specific purposes and
2:11:19do the regular work.
2:11:21>> Yes.
2:11:21>> Yes. Mhm. So, uh just so you know that
2:11:24that will be coming
2:11:29>> trees is twice a month going to be
2:11:32something you can deal with.
2:11:39>> Uh yeah, we're getting paid for one of
2:11:41them, aren't we?
2:11:43[laughter]
2:11:45>> And smiles.
2:11:46>> That's a joke, son.
2:11:50Uh again, they won't be every month, but
2:11:53it'll it'll certainly be calendarized
2:11:56every month. And then uh if if needed,
2:11:58then we would we would hold them and we
2:12:01would give you advanced notice. um what
2:12:04we would have so mostly like for
2:12:06postponements if we had a postponement
2:12:08or you know a study session because it
2:12:11it's really going to be needed with the
2:12:13the new code and we have a lot of things
2:12:16uh that are going to be coming before us
2:12:18if we you know go into you know uh now
2:12:22that we have more staff we can do you
2:12:24know our SEIA studies and there's a
2:12:26whole lot of stuff that we want to get
2:12:27into and we're not going to have enough
2:12:30time to do that in uh regular hearings.
2:12:33Well,
2:12:35>> how's our how's our search for another
2:12:37archaeologist going? Because technically
2:12:40we're we're not really a committee yet.
2:12:43>> We are a we are technically a committee.
2:12:46We're just not fully membered at the
2:12:48moment, but we are still we are still on
2:12:51search. So, if you do know anybody,
2:12:54send them my way. and you got approved
2:12:57by the so you know it's you've done work
2:13:01here and I think because the and this is
2:13:04what I mentioned I was thinking back
2:13:06about conversation I had with the mayor
2:13:09>> this is a very specialized position that
2:13:12requires certain qualifications and is
2:13:15really important to the committee and so
2:13:18um
2:13:20if there's an archaeologist I mean I
2:13:23can't claim any knowledge and I don't
2:13:25any right now nobody on staff can can
2:13:28you know claim knowledge about
2:13:30archaeology and the details of all that.
2:13:33So, um, from a professional standpoint,
2:13:36so if there's somebody, we're we're
2:13:38trying to make accommodation for having
2:13:41an archaeologist on the committee.
2:13:43You've been a huge benefit to us and I
2:13:47would love to see another member join
2:13:49that has your background and expertise.
2:13:53>> And David, [laughter]
2:13:55>> sorry, you're not Chocola. I'm just, you
2:13:58know,
2:14:00[laughter]
2:14:00>> you said that was the correct I learned
2:14:03I knew it.
2:14:07>> I will testify that she filtered what I
2:14:10spouted and
2:14:12far surpass whatever I might have told
2:14:15her. But in keeping with checking in is
2:14:20two meetings a month going to be
2:14:23something that
2:14:25you can handle?
2:14:26>> Yes, I can make that work. And then also
2:14:29you guys are always welcome to virtually
2:14:31although we prefer you to be here
2:14:34physically if able. Um that's all we
2:14:37have from staff
2:14:40today.
2:14:42>> Then
2:14:43according to the agenda
2:14:46matters from the committee
2:14:49anything you need to bring up?
2:14:54Um, I don't
2:14:56>> know if um if this is something that um
2:15:02uh
2:15:04should be brought up. Um
2:15:07well
2:15:08uh I have a question specifically
2:15:13regarding um uh Paul Duran's report
2:15:18and it has to do with um some people
2:15:23specifically put uh
2:15:27uh items in the uh in the uh appendix
2:15:33that and and say this is uh in the in
2:15:36the appendix because it's not for public
2:15:39consumption or however the wording goes,
2:15:41you know. Um
2:15:44Paul
2:15:45uh listed his
2:15:48uh
2:15:50uh
2:15:51archaeological sites in his uh plan and
2:15:56was specific enough that he gave
2:15:58actually addresses
2:16:00uh for those uh uh when they were in
2:16:04somebody's house or at somebody's
2:16:06property. Um, and and that seemed a
2:16:10little too specific for me. And I don't
2:16:12know whether that's just me and that
2:16:14should have been something that should
2:16:16have been put in an appendix so that it
2:16:19didn't, you know, actually locate
2:16:22exactly where the site was or not.
2:16:29>> Um,
2:16:30>> good question
2:16:31>> for staff. Um I could say when um we're
2:16:35filling for the ARC committee we will
2:16:40provide their clearance letter the staff
2:16:43memo and um that's about it that they
2:16:47will get from the packet. Um there uh we
2:16:51do not provide any packets that are or
2:16:55any reports to the public
2:16:58uh uh in in the public record. So they
2:17:01will get the staff memo and the final
2:17:04clearance and the application if
2:17:07requested.
2:17:08So that's what they get.
2:17:10>> I guess I was just concerned because you
2:17:13know some archaeologists and and some
2:17:15reports say specifically you know this
2:17:18is confidential uh and not for public
2:17:22release. And you know I was just I was
2:17:25reading Paul's and I'm just going oh oh
2:17:28my god there we have an address. There's
2:17:30another address. There's another
2:17:31address. You know, and and I know that
2:17:34um uh uh you know,
2:17:39that was the first time I'd seen that uh
2:17:42put that way so that you could actually
2:17:45identify
2:17:46uh what was going on at that address. Uh
2:17:51so, you know, that was just something I
2:17:54thought I would try to clarify in my
2:17:56mind as much as anything.
2:17:59>> Yeah. Well, it it would it does not get
2:18:01released to the republic the any reports
2:18:04and the for public information request
2:18:09>> and Tom the official custodian of
2:18:14archaeological records
2:18:18is the archaeological records management
2:18:22section of the Mexico Historic
2:18:24Preservation Division. So if somebody
2:18:27wants to
2:18:29empath the actual report, they are the
2:18:32people who will redact and provide
2:18:35whatever it is they can provide.
2:18:38Nobody else should have to make
2:18:40decisions on behalf of arms about who
2:18:43can get to see what.
2:18:47>> Okay.
2:18:50>> Okay.
2:18:51Um
2:18:53the other thing was uh
2:18:57these last two weeks uh since we had
2:19:00that uh presentation uh about the yard
2:19:05wall, I've just been
2:19:08uh diving into the code, which is why I
2:19:11ask which code are we using and uh why?
2:19:17Um, and I really feel like there's some
2:19:21big holes in in the code. Uh, and I say
2:19:25that as a contractor,
2:19:28uh, uh, who who appreciates what's under
2:19:32the ground in Santa Fe. Um, I know
2:19:35everybody has their reasoning, but
2:19:38boy, I would really like another crack
2:19:40at it at some point. And I hope that we
2:19:43get that chance to fine-tune some of
2:19:46those things because you could drive a
2:19:49truck through some of that stuff. And I
2:19:50think that was I saw that truck two
2:19:54weeks ago and I just thought, "Oh my
2:19:57god,
2:19:59why are we doing this? Why are we even
2:20:01sitting here doing this?
2:20:04Sorry, that is the reasoning why we're
2:20:07um adding the extra meetings on the
2:20:09agenda so we can uh be able to fine-tune
2:20:13comb that and not rush it so we can, you
2:20:16know,
2:20:18>> well, I guess the problem is is that if
2:20:20we're using that code right now, then
2:20:23there's already a big hole and people
2:20:25are going to exploit it because that's
2:20:27what that's what seemed like was
2:20:29happening two weeks ago.
2:20:37A trench is a trench is a trench. It
2:20:39shouldn't matter what you put in it.
2:20:42It's still a trench.
2:20:48And if it's 60 ft or 50 ft long, then we
2:20:51should be looking at it. Uh that's just
2:20:54my my gut feeling about, you know, why
2:20:59we make a homeowner do one thing and not
2:21:02another homeowner do almost exactly the
2:21:04same thing except he's putting concrete
2:21:07in a trench instead of a pipe. That's
2:21:11crazy.
2:21:15>> You are exactly correct.
2:21:21We are crazy.
2:21:23>> [laughter]
2:21:25>> collectively
2:21:26>> if there's a quick language fix for
2:21:28that.
2:21:30Do you like a quick clarification? I
2:21:32might be able to get that done quicker
2:21:34than
2:21:36waiting for all phase two. If the if you
2:21:39feel we should do that.
2:21:43I don't know if it's quick but it seems
2:21:45like
2:21:47amending the statement
2:21:50about such trenching you say
2:21:54trenching
2:21:56or all trenching including that for
2:22:01utilities
2:22:03that exceeds this dimension requires x y
2:22:07and z.
2:22:09I don't know if that fully does it, but
2:22:11it seems like it captures your spirit.
2:22:15>> So, there's um land use directory
2:22:17determination that I can do and I've
2:22:19done this for like micro communities and
2:22:21other blinding topics, other code
2:22:24topics. I can do land use director
2:22:27determination that trenching includes
2:22:30utilities and all other trenching
2:22:34regardless of whether utilities are
2:22:35involved as a code interpretation. And
2:22:39that's what and it's published on the
2:22:42website and all of that and and it adds
2:22:46like a little bit of of of certainty
2:22:49until we can get the code right. Would
2:22:51you like me to
2:22:52>> understand that there is that it doesn't
2:22:54say trenching for utilities. It just
2:22:56says extension.
2:22:57>> Yeah.
2:22:58>> So
2:23:00and also that would require like moving
2:23:02the utility section into the rest of the
2:23:05>> Oh, right. U because the utilities is
2:23:07its own section talking about
2:23:08extensions. Um I don't think there is
2:23:12discussion of trenching in the every
2:23:14other project that needs
2:23:16>> right
2:23:16>> permitting. So I I don't think it's a
2:23:18thick fix.
2:23:19>> Okay. Yeah,
2:23:20>> I'm envisioning a new section or
2:23:23branching everything else
2:23:25>> and then perhaps under utilities
2:23:30cross reference back to it
2:23:35just so that the utilities don't stand
2:23:38alone. It's all trenching.
2:23:41>> Right. Right. And I imagine that if you
2:23:45come forward with some language, you're
2:23:46going to have to run it by the attorney
2:23:49first.
2:23:49>> Oh, absolutely.
2:23:53>> And earlier I had the little voice of
2:23:57the city attorney chirping in my ear and
2:24:00I completely lost the thread of why I
2:24:04wanted to mention that. But um
2:24:12any change,
2:24:14any interpretation that we make
2:24:19that is outside what is in the strict
2:24:24language of the code is probably going
2:24:26to be something the city attorney is
2:24:28very interested in. um
2:24:33like
2:24:34exceptions.
2:24:36I would have loved to have heard him
2:24:39or her
2:24:41since we've had one of each. Um expound
2:24:45upon what
2:24:48that actually means
2:24:50and then how it fits into the context of
2:24:54where the request was coming from. so
2:24:57that we could have a better chance of
2:25:00stating our opinion and not running a
2:25:03foul of
2:25:06anything because I can imagine certain
2:25:08people standing up and saying I'm going
2:25:10to sue and
2:25:14I can imagine the city doesn't want
2:25:15that.
2:25:19On the other hand, maybe they just say
2:25:21bring it.
2:25:25I mean, one thing that I I think uh and
2:25:28I may be wrong in in assuming this, we
2:25:31make suggestions about what the code
2:25:33what we would like to see the code be,
2:25:35but we're not ultimately interpreters of
2:25:38the code. That's staff's
2:25:41staff's uh prerogative. We we
2:25:46I mean all the time I've been on the
2:25:48committee, what we do is we look at uh
2:25:53uh plans and reports and we decide
2:25:57whether they're complete enough or not
2:25:59complete enough and whether you know we
2:26:03uh we depend on staff to tell us whether
2:26:07what we are seeing is to the code
2:26:10because we don't we're you
2:26:14We're not getting paid enough to
2:26:16interpret the code. We're pay we're
2:26:18getting paid okay to say, "Yeah, this
2:26:20plan has what it needs and this uh
2:26:24report has what it needs. Otherwise, we
2:26:27need to get more money. [laughter]
2:26:35We're not lawyers. We're volunteers.
2:26:39We're not We're not inspectors. We're
2:26:41volunteers. We're not code interpreters,
2:26:44we're volunteers.
2:26:47So,
2:26:49I did feel ambushed last the last time
2:26:52because I felt like we were being asked
2:26:54to interpret a code that wasn't our job.
2:27:02So that's my
2:27:05>> I feel like I need to apologize to you
2:27:07for that because that was my my
2:27:09interpretation was that it was an
2:27:11alteration and the applicant
2:27:15um
2:27:16>> it was absolutely an alteration and they
2:27:18were trying to pull a fast one
2:27:20>> and I don't think that they liked my
2:27:23response or what but they wanted to ask
2:27:26the committee
2:27:28um and it is Still I'm considering it as
2:27:31an alteration.
2:27:33>> I mean how many has mole worked on the
2:27:36code? She should know the code inside
2:27:38and out.
2:27:39>> You know
2:27:40>> she shouldn't be coming to us and saying
2:27:41what's the code?
2:27:43>> Right.
2:27:44>> Right. It didn't feel good you know
2:27:47because we consulted and provided a
2:27:52response but she did not want like that
2:27:54response and so that's why she wanted to
2:27:56come to the committee.
2:27:58>> Yeah. I had a meeting with them on
2:28:00Monday and then they emailed Heather and
2:28:03Amanda without me knowing with a
2:28:07three-page report.
2:28:10So, it was a little I don't know.
2:28:13>> Yeah. Well, I mean, I think our
2:28:16inclination would be to say you're
2:28:18digging in the ground. We're concerned
2:28:21with what's in the ground. Period.
2:28:23>> Exactly. Yep.
2:28:30All right. Thank you, Tom.
2:28:32>> Thank you.
2:28:35[laughter]
2:28:36>> No, I don't have
2:28:38>> Okay.
2:28:40Um,
2:28:42in so far as I know, I will be around
2:28:45for the next meeting.
2:28:46>> Okay.
2:28:48Um,
2:28:53as soon as we have the schedule,
2:28:58I will start trying to defend
2:29:01schedule dates.
2:29:04It's harder to defend when there's twice
2:29:06as many of them.
2:29:08>> Yes. So, as early as possible to know if
2:29:13we're going to use one of our wild
2:29:15cards,
2:29:16that would be better.
2:29:17>> Yes.
2:29:18>> Should we do like an every other No,
2:29:20maybe we should ask the question. Should
2:29:22we say every other month there will be
2:29:25two meetings or should we I mean, I was
2:29:29just thinking we'd hold the time and if
2:29:31we needed it, we use it. But if it's a
2:29:33scheduling thing that becomes really
2:29:35nightmarish for you,
2:29:36>> I think
2:29:39specifying the dates of the month that
2:29:42it will be if it is
2:29:46in addition to the meaning that will be
2:29:49for almost darn sure is a good idea
2:29:53because that gives a long-term
2:29:55perspective of how it might work out.
2:29:59>> Okay. voice
2:30:01to know
2:30:04say at the second meeting of January
2:30:08that we are not using the first meeting
2:30:11of February at that meeting would be
2:30:14good because okay
2:30:15>> that just makes
2:30:18scheduling in the interim much easier.
2:30:20>> Yes.
2:30:21>> But I'm in favor of naming them and
2:30:25having them ready.
2:30:27>> Yes.
2:30:28>> Yes. And we will we would have to do it
2:30:30in that way because we have scheduled
2:30:32the room and you know do all of the
2:30:34stuff that comes with an agenda. So we
2:30:37will uh definitely
2:30:39um you'll have advanced notice as we'll
2:30:42be
2:30:43>> it's basically two weeks.
2:30:45[clears throat]
2:30:45>> Yeah.
2:30:47But yeah.
2:30:49>> Okay.
2:30:50>> We'll try to communicate earlier on as
2:30:52well. Yeah.
2:30:55>> Is it easier?
2:30:57Is it easier to just say we meet every
2:30:59two twice a month and then cancel if we
2:31:02don't need to and that way we can plan
2:31:05one way or the other? I don't know. I
2:31:08mean, how do how do how do the other
2:31:09members feel about that?
2:31:13>> Well, that's essentially what would we
2:31:15be doing? We would advise if we're not
2:31:20>> Okay.
2:31:22Yeah. At least that way we can get a
2:31:24free day if we if we don't have enough.
2:31:28>> Yes.
2:31:31>> So the next meeting is 22 October.
2:31:38>> I'm here
2:31:39>> or there
2:31:42item on the agenda.
2:31:49>> I move we adjourn.
2:31:53Second move and seconded. All in favor
2:31:56signify by saying I. I. I.
2:32:00>> We're journed.
