Workshop Agenda


Part 1 - Where Are We Going?  What Are We Doing Here?


Get updated on the Santa Fe County planning process, which includes the Galisteo Growth Management Area Plan, Oil & Gas Regulations, General Plan Update and Land Development Regulations Update.

Part 2 - Create a Community Vision


Define a vision statement and guiding principles for the Galisteo Growth Management Area.

Part 3 - What Areas Should We Protect?  Where Should We Grow?


Using a base map, identify where we should preserve sensitive and significant land.  Identify where growth should and should not occur, as well as appropriate types of growth.

Part 4 - Community Priorities


Using keypads, we’ll identify priorities.  Which environmental features are most important to protect?  What are the best strategies to use?  Learn about the data-based model that prioritizes protection areas and identifies areas that may be able to accommodate development.

Part 5 - What Happens Next?


The Planning Team will incorporate the results of the workshop into a preferred future land use scenario and the draft Galisteo Growth Management Area Plan.  There will be additional opportunities for public input as the planning process continues.  Check the project website for downloads and updates:
