Description
Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Tuesday, July 8, 2025.
Let’s kick things off with some important updates that may affect your day. If you’re headed toward the mountains, be advised that water main repairs are scheduled along Hyde Park Road today, with a service interruption expected. Plan your errands accordingly and watch for detour signs. There’s also ongoing wildfire activity just outside Santa Fe in the Coyote Ranger District, where the Laguna Wildfire has burned around 2,700 acres. Fire crews are making steady progress and have achieved containment on about 15 percent of the blaze so far. You might notice some smoke drifting into Santa Fe, especially in the morning hours, but air quality is expected to stay at moderate levels. Be mindful if you have respiratory sensitivities, and remember that some forest lands and trails remain closed for safety while firefighting operations continue.
This morning marks an exciting new chapter for local entrepreneurs, especially Native business owners. The city launches its first monthly roundtable for Native entrepreneurs, creating a dedicated space for networking, resource-sharing, and building the next wave of local businesses. The kickoff event takes place later today, and it’s a chance for anyone interested in supporting or learning from Native-owned enterprises to get involved.
Speaking of support, the Office of Affordable Housing just released its action plan for 2025 and 2026, packed with proposals aimed at creating more accessible homes across Santa Fe. Community voices are helping shape this roadmap, so keep an eye out for upcoming forums if you want to weigh in on housing priorities.
Looking for fun? Grab your blankets and lawn chairs because the July edition of Movies in the Park is rolling out on the Southside. It’s a perfect evening to enjoy a family-friendly flick under the stars, meet neighbors, and savor Santa Fe’s summer nights. If you’re an artist or art lover, there’s also an exciting call for submissions for Queer Magnetism, a new show at the Santa Fe Community Gallery that celebrates diversity and inclusion in creative expression.
July is Disability Pride Month, and the city has a lineup of events and resources highlighting contributions from the disability community. Whether you’re looking to connect, learn or advocate, you’ll find ways to engage all month long.
That’s all for your Santa Fe Local Frequency this Tuesday. Stay safe, enjoy what our city has to offer, and check back tomorrow for more updates that keep you plugged into the heart of Santa Fe. This has been Santa Fe Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
