This month’s GRIT marks a leadership transition and several significant community updates. President Jim Stewart shares a farewell message reflecting on his time serving Sandia Heights, we introduce the newly redesigned SHHA website, and the Board details resident concerns about PNM’s proposal to build a new substation and route 115 kV transmission lines on 90 foot poles along Tramway Boulevard beside the multiuse trail. The article summarizes documented wildfire risk, evacuation constraints, open space and scenic impacts, and gaps in PNM’s siting analysis. You will also find the Annual Meeting agenda and voting information, committee reports, the Sandia Heights Artists call for the September studio tour, and step by step wildfire preparedness tips for the months ahead.
