To the Mayor and City Council of Santa Fe:

We the undersigned citizens of Santa Fe and the South side of the city, petition you as elected leaders, responsible for the development and protection of our community, to take any and all necessary action to protect the citizens of Santa Fe and especially Southside residents near Las Soleras and Pulte homes from damage and health impacts due to avoidable airborne construction dust. This dust has caused an insufferable impact on our quality of life that is a direct result of approvals, particularly waiver from grading and drainage requirements to allow for mass grading for this development and other developments, by you as our elected officials. We also request the close examination of the consequences from approval of mass grading in Santa Fe in order to avoid the destructive and detrimental impacts of this kind of development from any similar future proposed mass grading development in Santa Fe.

In support of this petition requesting your response we the undersigned residents of the South side of Santa Fe and the directly adjacent communities to the Las Soleras, Pulte Homes, and proposed nearby subdivisions, further affirm:

It’s horrible. My 89 yr old mother with asthma is right in it’s path to the East. My car is coated with dirt every day in summer. If I leave my windows open I’m my house my desk and computer are covered with grit.

It is obvious that there have been MANY unresolved grievances related to the Las Soleras and Pulte homes. Some of this could be prevented through diligence through policy principles by the Land Planning Department and implementation, rather than neglect.

Excessive dust from clear cutting entire areas and bulldozing EVERY lot of mature pinon, juniper and every cactus and the creatures that lived there has been an issue for me for the 69 years I've lived in this city. It's always about the $$$$ the builders save in time and the subsequent plantings of non-native trees and plantings that are not acclimated to a 7500 foot elevation AND about the precious water it takes to keep the non-natives alive. Stupidity reigns supreme. Our planetary climate crisis is Our fault and We the People of the planet are and all the creatures on it are doomed. Sooner than later.

Once again, the Southside is left in the dust. This time, literally.

The dust from the building to the West of my home on Governor Miles was atrocious and detrimental to the residents nearby!
