LCVA News – June 1, 2014



LCVA Agenda

I came across the La Cienega Valley Association NEWS – JUNE 1, 2014 and was truly impressed by the depth and relevance of the content. The newsletter effectively captured the essence of the community's activities and concerns during that time, showcasing the dedication of the association in keeping its members informed.

In addition to the community updates, I couldn't help but reflect on the importance of educational endeavors like literary analysis. The ability to dissect and understand the nuances of literature is a skill that goes beyond academic settings, enriching our lives by allowing us to delve deeper into the stories we encounter. Speaking of enrichment, it would be fascinating to see how the La Cienega Valley Association might have incorporated literary discussions or events where participants have the opportunity to buy literary analysis paper or papers about their activities, fostering both a sense of togetherness and intellectual growth within the community.

The LCVA agenda for Monday’s meeting is below.

Fourth of July Update

The Boys and Girls Club and the City are reconsidering the location for the Fourth of July Fireworks show. They are now discussing holding the event at Santa Fe High. LCVA will keep you posted.

La Bajada Ranch Update

LCVA doesn’t have the details but there is a strong indication that the remaining approximately 900 acres of the Santa Fe Canyon Ranch development (controlled by the Borrego family) is under contract to someone who is interested in maintaining its history as a ranch.

County Code Update

The County Commission has decided to postpone the adoption of the new County Code until December. Over the next several months he Commission is going to hold a series of special Commission meetings throughout the County to gain more community/resident input. LCVA is very supportive of the Commission’s decision.

Recognitions and Thanks

LCVA would like to offer a community thanks to Marc Mras who replaced the Las Estrellas Community notice sign. The new sign is definitely a step up and LCVA is hoping to tap into Marc’s energy and creativity as we look at other signage in the community.

LCVA would also like thank LCVA Board Member Paul Murray for allowing us to use his painting “La Cienega Moon” on our website. Paul’s painting graced the cover of the December issue of Artist Magazine and is another great reason to check out the LCVA website, lcva-nm.org. Check it out.
