Returns elsewhere:CapitanCapitan's turnout for the

school board election was hetterthan expected in spite of thesevere weather conditions thatprompted school closures county­wide. With no bond issue on theballot, a lower turnout wouldhave been the norm; however 222votes were cast.

The· $14 million 2010-2015"Facilities Master Plan, adoptedlast October by the district's edu­cation board, identified projectsthat would be funded through theborrowing.

Drainage issues at RuidosoHigh School topped the list at$1.5 million. District technologyneeds were estimated at $1.2 mil­lion. Completion of the middleschool (a' second access road,fields and landscaping) was putat $3' million. Reconfigw.ing stu­dent populations, to create pre­kindergarten through secondgrade, and third through fifthgrade environments, was called a$1 million endeavor.

A roof replacement at SierraVista Primary was also a $1 mil­lion project. Renovation of thehigh school science wing wouldcost an estimated $4 million.Rounding out the 11 items in theplan were: a roof replacement atthe Horton Complex,which is theformer middle school campus; aretaining wall repair at HortonStadium; playground upgrades atthe White Mountain schools com-

But representation on the dis­trict's educationboard will bedramatically adjusted.

Tuesday's snowstorm limitedthe turnout at the Ruidoso Con­vention Center to less than 10·percent ofeligible voters.

Longtime school board mem­bers Susan Lutterman andFrank Sayner, the current boardpresident and vice presidentrespectively, will be replaced byCecil Davis and Devin Marshall.Curt Temple defeated incumbentMarc Beatty by 10 votes, accord­ing to the unofficial results.Beatty was appointed to thepanel by the board in March of2010 following the resignation ofRafael "Rifle" Salas who waselected to the Ruidoso VillageCouncil.

YOUR OPllNJION

Each day, somewhere in NewMexico, citizens, communityactivists or news reporters aretold they cannot have the infor­mation they are seeking for anyone of a variety of reasons.

Whether the reason is legiti­mate or not (and we have

to acknowledge thatnot all of them are)the public is leftwith the perceptionthat its governmentis not being as openas it could or should

be.It is not that the

state has not adopted apolicy of transparency. The

Open Meetings Act makes itclear that "itis declared to bethe public policy of this statethat allpersons are entitled tothe greatest possible informationregarding the affairs of govern­ment and the official acts ofthose officers and employeeswho represent them". TheInspection of Public Records Actand the Sunshine PortalTransparency Act are. alsodesigned to help make sure thatNew Mexicans can get as muchinformation as possible abouttheir government.

But we know the reality isdifferent. The New MexicoFoundation for OpenGovernment last year receivedmore than 125 complaints to its

dollars invested in the new sewerplant, those of us "down theValley" have everything vestedin it. We've all heard the old say­ing that ''it'' flows downhill. Well

'it really does! Next time youflush your commode, stand therefor a minute and watch whathappens. You will see a swirlingmotion as everything circles anddisappears, replaced by clear,clean water, gone forever. Right?Wrong!

It's not magic. From there itgoes to the sewer plant to beprocessed, properly.we hope, andit will eventually flow rightthrough my place about a halfmile upriver from CommissionerPowell's place. Jackie lives therewith her husband, Denny, theirdaughter and grandchildren.Their brother-in-law, sister,

Tie public's growing frus­tration with government,

The good newsis that while wewill always have pol­icy differences andnever enough money, wecan all agree that govern-ment agencies and publicemployees should make govern­ment transparency a priority;The public, who after allis pay­ing the bills, deserves to know .how its money is being spent,

The public has become dis­trustful of its government,believing that too much of theinformation it does receive is"spin" and not enough of it issimply data that will allow citi­zens to draw their own conclu­sions. As with most perceptions,some of it is unfounded ~ thevast majority of public officialstake seriously their duty to betransparent - but those of uswho are public servants mustalso admit that much of this per­ception is based in reality.

SANTA FE - The highplains village of Mosqueroin northeastern New Mex­ico has a school district,with 43 students.

A crowded classroom inAlbuquerque has morekids.

Royhas' a schooldistrict,too. It has 51 students.Wagon Mound has 71 in itsdistrict, House 79 and DesMoines 97.

Isolation, geography, aweak economy and tradi­tion are reasons that placestoo small to appear onmany' state maps haveschooldistricts.

All told, 49 of NevvMexico's 89 school districtshave fewer than 1,000 stu­dents.

Sen. Stephen Fisch-. mann,D-Mesilla Park, has

introduced a bill to closeeach of those small dis­tricts. His proposal, SB 80,is not as radical as it maysound, Fischmann said.

''I'm not in favor of clos­ing schools.That's not whatthis is about," he said dur­ing an interviewlast week,

Rather, Fischmann'sidea is to shrink the num­ber of districts, combineresources and better servestudents. Otherwise, hesaid, the sacred cows offunding formulas andentrenched districts go on,but student achievementdoes not go up.

Fischmann, who has amaster's degree in businessadministration fromUCLA, spent his careerwith Levi Strauss. He callshimself an outsider when itcomes to schools, but saysthose inside may be so,accustomed to doing thingsthe same way that opportu­nities are missed.

People who are in thetrenches, running tiny dis­tricts, say Fischmann'sidea to force consolidationshas a certain appeal.

"To retain their sanc­tioned event status," Mor­ris replied. "I think it's safeto say most know whatthey are doing within 30days ofan annual event."

"Thejustificationis thatthe village spent a consid­erable amount of moneyimproving public spacesthat are designed for alarge number of people,with parking and safetyprovisions," he said. "Thatallows the taxpayer to ben­efit fromthe moneyspent."

With changesto fourvil­lage ordinances and poli­cies narrowly approved byRuidoso councilors, officialsare hoping for smootherhandling of itinerant ven­dors and special events inthe future ,

The changes aim toencourage use of publicproperty for specialevents,create a safe environmentand ensure participantsare properly licensed andpay gross receipts taxes.

The vote to approvelastweek was unanimous onthree of the changes, butsplit 4-2 with CouncilorsRafael Salas 'and DeniseDean voting against thenewoperationsplan for vil­lage-owned 'and publiclyused properties..

DeputyVillage ManagerBillMorristold councilors atask force assigned toreview whether itinerantvendors should be allowed,and if they are, on whatbasis, met five times andcame back with recom­mended changes in fourdocuments.

The task force recom­mendations are based onencouraging special eventson .public land, changing'operationguidelinesfor thevillage 'convention centerand banning itinerant ven­dors except during specialevents operating under apermit or as a sanctionedconvention center event.

The' first step towardthose goals was to recom­mend deletingreferencestoitinerant vendors beingallowed as a conditionaluse under the C2, neigh­borhood commercial, andC3, Midtown commercialzoningdesignations,exceptas part of a valid specialevent.

The change would in noway effect current rulesthat allow existing busi­nesses to conduct sidewalksales of their normal mer­chandisefor three-consecu­tive days each, Councilorsagreed to add a twice-a­year limit on such salesthat occuron private land.

Projects Director RandallCamp told village coun­cilors Tuesday about theFederal Emergency Man­agement Agency.

''I was toldin November,the Finding of NoSignificant Impact wouldbe signedany day,"he said.''I received it today and itwas dated Nov. 11, but noone could find it. We losttwo months with us, theengineers and HomelandSecuritycalling." ,

If the villagehad movedahead before receiving theFONSI, any money spentto replace bridges or sewerlines previously in theriverbed would have beenat Ruidoso's own risk,Camp said.

The FONSI is requiredfor completion of theEnvironmental Assess­ment, which is requiredbefore purchasing the

bridges and issuing arequest for proposals toengineer a design for thesewer line relocation pro­ject.

The next approval mustcome from the U.S. ArmyCorps of Engineers, hesaid, and that agency's offi­cials are promising a two­week turn-around.

"It's pretty straight' for­ward," Camp said. "We'reputting bridgesback wherethey were and we have theFONSIfrom FEMA."

Construction is antici­pated tobeginnolater thanMemorial Day, with EagleDrivetoppingthe schedule.First and Second Bridgeson Main Street in UpperCanyon will be' tackledaround tourist flows as longas weather allows. Otherbridgeson the high prioritylist are McDaniel Drive,Coyote Lane, Sleep Hollow

Road, River Trail, RobinRoad, Close Road andNorth Loop Road #2.

Camp also briefed coun­cilors on the status of astudy titled RestorationStrategy and Payment forEcosystem Services in theRioRuidoso Watershed.

Councilors approved aresolution for a $120,000grant with a $30,000 matchfrom the village. The pro­posalwas submitted by theSouth Central MountainResourceConservationandDevelopment Council andis deemedcritical to protectthe Rio Ruidoso watershedand the village'swater sup­ply from catastrophic dam­age as a result of fire orflooding.

Prior to that, Clyde Stoneman, abrother-in-law, had the route until his death in 1964. H1s son Sam Stoneman took the route for ayearduring the 1964-65 school year. Roper said currently the route serves 10 students and has been availableto up to as many as 20. Roper said the economics of running the route has changed to the point itwastime bring itto an end. "It's not from the crunch the schools are dealing with now so much, but thechanges in legislation over the years regulating how we are paid." Roper said he was ready to be donewith it, admitting that seeing students he'd watched get on the bus as kindergartenerS that are now adUlts,one ateacher at his retirement ceremony at the school, made him realize he was maybe getting older.Roper and his family own the Knight Ranch at Ancho.

Certain off-highway, vehicles would be

allowedtooperate onstreets and highways in'New Mexico under legisla­tion introduced by Rep.Zach Cook(Rr-Ruidoso).

The measure would ap­ply to so-calledside-by-sidevehicles, such as thePolaris Razor.

"Afew months ago someconstituents in Ruidoso

who ride these PolarisRazors, and I didn't knowwhat a Polaris Razor waswhen I was talking to theseguys but they explained itto me, came to me," Cooksaid. "They're not reallyATVs because they're notlike the saddle mount four­wheelers or three-wheelerswith the handlebars. Theyhave fuur whecls, buckclseats front and back, andsteering wheels just like aregular car. My con­stituents have modified

these vehiclestohave all of.the same safety equipmentthat an automobile wouldhave."

But current law forbidsregistering off-road vehi­cles for use on streets. Thelegislation would licensethe side-by-sides, allowingtheir on-road use. The reg­istrant would have to signan' affidavit affirming thatthe vehicle meets all of theequipment requirementsfor highway use arid thatthe vehiclewill be used pri-

marily offofhighways."Sowe'vegot a situation

were a vehicle meets allsafety requirements butbecause of the way the lawis they can't use it onstreets when they're just asviable to get around town."

Cook said the side-by­sides are safer than three­wheelers and motorcycles.

But he noted some havequestioned allowing theuse of the side-by-sides oninterstate highways or inmajor metropolitan areas

such as downtownAlbuquerque. Modificationofthe bill is being lookedatto address those concerns.

An operator ofa side-by­side on streets would haveto be a licensed driver. Thevehicle would have to beinsured.

~'I thought this was justa localissue, there happensto be some guys in Ruidosowho 'are into this PolarisRazor culture," Cook said.''But then I get up here anddrop this bill and (Rep.)

Yvette Herrell (R-Ala­mogordo), who representsOtero County, said 'I've gotthese constituents whowant me to pass a bill toallow them to drive theseoff-road vehicles on citystreets.' And on the Senateside, Senator (George)Munoz (D-Gallup) has asimilar thing. This is astatewide issue."

The bill has been routedto the House Consumerand Public AffairsCommittee.

SANTA FE - State Rep. AndyNunez, who just quit the DemocraticParty, still thinks he can drum upenough support to overturn the lawthat allows illegal immigrants toobtain New Mexico driver's licenses.

"I believe I can get my billthrough," Nunez said Monday. 'Wehave to do everything we can to stopillegal immigration, and giving themdriver's licenses is just an invitationfor them to comein."

His measure," HB 78, wouldrequire an applicant, for a driver'slicense to have a SocialSecurity num­ber, a tightened system that Nunezsaid would make the state less of amagnet for illegal immigrants.

Nunez said he would only need topick up the votes oftwo Democrats inthe House, provided all 33 '

~~~~~:fn~9~~~~~~fi~;'i'grants. He said he was equally opti­mistic his bill could clear the Senate,also controlledby Democrats.

With Nunez's defection to ."Declinedto State".a party affiliation,the House has 36 Democrats, 33Republicans.and him, a maverick.

.Nunez said he edited his bill onMonday to tighten language thatcouldhave denied driver's licenses tolegal immigrants.

Also on Monday, Republican Rep.Bill Rehm introduced a licensing billless ambitious than Nunez's.

Rehm said it is politically impossi­ble to stop undocumented immi­grants from obtaining New Mexicodriver's licenses, .given theLegislature's composition.

A retired sheriffs deputy, Rehmsaid he hates that the state licensesimmigrants who are in the countryillegally. But, he said, he does nothave enough allies in the Legislatureto overturn that law.

"How do you put the cat back inthe bag? Taking away their licenseswon't pass this Legislature," saidRehm, ofA;l.buquerque.

As an alternative, Rehm hasdevised a bill that would revoke thedriver's licenses of foreign nationals.Those in the country illegally stillcouldseek a NewMexico "drivingper­mit" that would have to be renewedeach year. His proposalis HB 261.

Unlike a driver's license, the per­mit would not serve as government­issued identification. For instance,the permit would not enable some­bodyto board an airplane, Rehm said.

New Mexico legislators in 2003approved a law allowing foreignnationals to obtain driver's licenseswithout proof of their immigrationstatus. The rationale was that undoc­umented immigrants with licenseswould buy auto insurance, makingNew Mexico's roads safer for every­body.

Rehm in his bill stated that he onlywants to revokethe licensesand issuepermits to immigrants who are in thecountry illegally. .

But the state, in issuing driverslicenses, does not distinguish
