COVER, OCT. 20: “EVICTED, REJECTED & LOCKED OUT”
AS A LANDLORD As a landlord in Santa Fe with three rental properties, all rented to low-income tenants who pay rent from their earnings, I read with morbid fascination your senseless piece of yellow journalism crafted to demonize landlords, (“Evicted, Rejected” & Locked Out.”) The article creates the misimpression that when landlords decline to accept tenants paying with rental assistance such as Section 8 vouchers, it’s for a bad reason such as greed. What the article doesn’t say is how landlords know from real-life experience that tenants paying with government assistance often make bad tenants. Those are often tenants who engage in illegal conduct, own vicious dogs, damage the property, tell lies, annoy or intimidate neighbors, live in chaos, routinely pay the rent late, or stash old furniture and junk on the portal. The same tenants often have an endless stream of random visitors coming and going in the middle of the night. Tenants have a zillion ways to exploit and intimidate a landlord and place the landlord at risk, since legally landlords can be held liable for the criminal acts of tenants. The article also creates the false impression landlords evict tenants for no good reason. To the contrary, landlords don’t want to evict people. When evictions happen, it’s because the tenant is causing problems. Here’s the recipe for tenants to avoid eviction: Pay rent on time, be honest, don’t damage the property, behave respectfully, don’t run a drug or sex business in the property, don’t bother other people, be kind to the neighbors.

NEWS, OCT. 20: “TWISTED WORDS”
LOVE FOR MIDTOWN? I have read a number of comments in various reports online describing Mayor [Alan] Webber’s rudeness to the employees who work under his direction. That most of them happen to be women is, of course, a coincidence, and in no way implies misogyny or harassment. Rudeness and arrogance from male politicians in the workplace certainly is nothing new. That women catch the brunt of it is nothing new. It is not even the worst thing that could happen… My own issue with the mayor has nothing to do with any such lack of courtesy. Mayor Webber refuses to reopen LaFarge library and the whole of Midtown has suffered for two years from the loss of direct access to books and online services. Those adults who wish to educate themselves are limited to curbside service and, when the schools are closed down due to the [pandemic] the same is true of the kids…It is clear that Mayor Webber has been grossly uninformed. Ignored by the mayor and not represented by anyone on the City Council, Midtown has been unable to advocate for its own services. We need to help the gentrification project along by finding representation elsewhere. Perhaps from someone who has lived in the Midtown area, raised children in Midtown schools and sees its library as centrally located with lots of free parking access. Perhaps someone who is actually interested in meeting the needs of Midtown residents who have homes and rentals that are not on the Midtown Campus and make up most of the Midtown population.

thing with the money budgeted for improvements, but instead chose to do nothing. My understanding is there may still be improvement monies held in trust? Buy land and dedicate it as open space. Then forget about developing it. Then when the bond is paid off, say “Hey let’s sell the land and buy more open space elsewhere.” What are the chances that if the county were permitted to sell THIS OPEN SPACE, that they won’t sell the next open space they buy when the value of the land rises over 20 years. What we need is the courts to say “it’s been dedicated as open space and therefore the County can not violate the promise and commitment which they made to the people who paid for the open space, the citizens of Santa Fe County local to the immediate area of the South Meadows property.” The city, too, is failing us. They could have accepted the open space as is and leave it as is. Zero maintenance. How much maintenance did the county put into it over the past 20 years? No one is asking for a developed 22-acre park, with playground equipment, paved walking and bike paths, covered picnic areas, etc. Just leave it alone as open space! That’s all people are asking for.

Media Bonanza Alec Baldwin movie-set shooting puts all eyes on New Mexico BY J E F F P RO CTO R , JULIE ANN GRIMM e d i t o r @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
A
Wild West set town that’s been the backdrop for dozens of movies and fundraisers in Santa Fe County became a crime scene and a media circus last week as journalists from across the globe flocked to the area. As of presstime, no charges had been filed against actor Alec Baldwin for shooting a revolver that had been a prop for his new 1880s Western Rust at the Bonanza Creek Ranch, and investigators with the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Department also had not hinted at whether any crew members who handled the weapon might face criminal liability. While it appears authorities are taking their time to parse out what led the shooting that killed 42-year-old cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza, 48, the story and the hype machine that’s driven it haven’t so much as paused in the six days since Baldwin fired. After local television stations broke the news Thursday night, Hollywood-bathed press from the Los Angeles Times and TMZ jumped into the fray. Soon the two-lane Bonanza Creek Road would see television crews from cable networks along with the regional New York Times reporter. A writer for the New York Post showed up the next day, along with reporters from both Australia and New Zealand, and SFR has fielded inquiries from a German TV station, a British radio program and Domingo Espetacular of Brazil. Freelance camera operator Shane Anthony was still on the scene for the FOX Network Monday morning after having driven down from Denver on Friday. He spent the first couple days staking out the main gate to the movie ranch driveway, where security guards checked credentials after investigators cleared out. Then, after he got a tip from another photographer that he could catch a shot of the mock Old West town from a vantage point on a hill farther away, he moved there. He was able
to zoom in right on the church building where the incident took place. “This has international interest for a couple of reasons: We live vicariously through celebrities when they succeed and we live vicariously through them when they hit bumps in the road,” Anthony tells SFR. “Baldwin, he’s as close to US/American royalty as we have in this country, so that put the British TV on the story...A lot of it is timing and what else is going on in the news cycle.” Bonanza Creek’s film credits include Lonesome Dove and All the Pretty Horses, along with Wild Hogs and 3:10 to Yuma. Though event organizers have since switched venues, for years, visitors played dress-up and strolled the sets for the Buckaroo Ball to benefit local children’s charities.

About a half mile away, a team from People magazine’s television show was looking for the ranch and had stopped for a standup shot a short distance from where the road branches west off Highway 14. Stephanie Bauer, who works as a special contributor for the show, had been on her way to Texas when she got re-routed. “I used to do a lot of Hollywood breaking news and now I do mostly true crime,”

she says. “Since this happened—it’s sort of both.” Bauer said the story was a tough one, however, because witnesses have been worried that being publicly identified could mean they don’t get future film industry work. “People are afraid to talk,” she tells SFR. “I think it’s because it’s a criminal investigation and everyone on the crew wants to... just keep working.” It appears a criminal investigation into the shooting is ongoing. Santa Fe County Sheriff’s investigators executed a search warrant to collect firearms, clothing, film and digital devices from the scene to piece together whether someone should be charged. Affidavits filed in Magistrate Court provide a picture of what happened before and after the shooting. The warrants are based on accounts provided to sheriff’s Det. Joel Cano, including one from Souza. The director and another witness told Cano the day of the shooting began with Rust’s camera crew walking off the film over disagreements about their pay and housing. Still, witnesses told Cano, everyone was getting along as the cast and crew prepared to rehearse a scene in which Baldwin drew out a pistol and pointed it toward a camera, according to one of the affidavits. Assistant director Dave Halls allegedly handed the gun to Baldwin, the affida-
vits say. Halls could not be reached for comment. A short time later, Baldwin fired, striking Hutchins and Souza. She died at University of New Mexico Hospital; Souza was treated and released in Santa Fe. Crew members also told Cano that Baldwin had been “very careful” when handling firearms on set prior to the day of the shooting, according to the affidavit. Among the unanswered questions, though, is what, exactly, was in the gun the well-known actor fired. Search warrant returns obtained by SFR on Monday show that investigators recovered three black revolvers, 14 swabs of suspected blood, at least six boxes of “ammo” and nine “shell casing(s)” from in and around the church structure at the ranch. Sheriff Adan Mendoza’s spokesman, Juan Rios, did not respond to questions from SFR about whether Baldwin fired a bullet or something else. Investigators have a “projectile” they recovered from Souza’s shoulder and a shell casing, a source close to the investigation tells SFR. But they won’t be able to precisely identify the round until ballistics and forensics analyses have been completed. Local officials have asked the FBI to conduct those reviews. Mendoza and First Judicial District Attorney Mary CarmackAltwies have scheduled a news conference for 10 am Oct. 27.

A Place to Call Their Own
Santa Fe Place teen center meets a need highlighted by recent violence on the Southside, Boys and Girls Clubs leaders and members say
The new teen center at Santa Fe Place features, among other things, two game rooms, one with video games and the other with a pool table, and a cafe.

atrons at the Santa Fe Place mall peer through a storefront door on a recent afternoon, spotting a white computer room splashed with blue accents—the colors of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Santa Fe. Inside, club staffers are putting the final touches on a teen center—complete with computers and Wi-Fi, a stage for performances, video games and more—that opened this week. Some city leaders and activists say something like this has been a missing piece on the city’s Southside for far too long. City Councilor Roman “Tiger” Abeyta has been a vocal and frequent advocate of local government doing more for historically disadvantaged kids, both in his role as a governing body representative and as chief professional officer for the local Boys and Girls Clubs. Donations and about $60,000 in federal school emergency relief funds—a small portion of which are required to go toward after-school programs—administered by the New Mexico Public Education Department are funding the center. The opening comes in advance of a cityrun teen center that Abeyta has long pushed for. Officials broke ground last month shortly after the City Council approved a $9.2 million construction contract; it’s expected to open in May 2023, right by the Boys and Girls Zona del Sol club.
Abeyta and others who spoke with SFR say that several recent shootings on the Southside—which police and prosecutors have insisted are linked to youth gangs—spotlight the need for more resources and activities for young people in the area. For example: On Sept. 30, three people— Elijah Gallegos, 16, Brianna Romero, 20 and Davonne Romero, 23—were arrested on suspicion of shooting at cars and buildings in the area, leading to lockdowns at nearby schools. No one was injured, but Brianna Romero later died of a reported drug overdose after being jailed. Abeyta tells SFR he was working in his office at the Zona del Sol club on Jaguar Drive when he heard gunshots that day. Initially, he thought he’d heard a TV or large frame falling off the wall. Then, he saw a car driving away and realized what had happened. Abeyta and other club staff members went outside, where they talked with neighbors and saw shell casings on the ground. When police arrived, he told them what he heard and saw and turned over security camera video. Abeyta says the teen center could help blunt teen violence, not only by offering young people activities and resources but also by giving them a community. “That’s what they say about gangs is that’s where some of these kids get their sense of belonging from,” Abeyta tells SFR. “Sometimes they feel like these gang members or older people who are influencing them care about them, sometimes more than what they get at home, albeit it’s negative. But it’s their only
source. Hopefully we will provide that alternative for them.” Located in what used to be a Hollister outlet, the center includes a computer room, two game rooms, a performance space for young musicians, a cafe and a classroom that’s expected to be used for financial literacy, driver’s education lessons and other offerings. Sarah Gettler, assistant executive director of the local Boys and Girls Clubs, says she hopes the club will also be able to build connections with stores in the mall to locate jobs for young members.
Boys and Girls Clubs member Alicia Gettler stands behind the front desk of the teen center where she’ll be working part time.

Leadership chose the location in part because it’s accessible, Gettler says; there’s both a school and city bus stop in front of the mall. It will be open from 10 am to 8 pm Monday through Saturday and from 12 pm to 6 pm on Sunday. Young people who are interested in spending time there will be asked to sign up for a free membership. Teen coordinators—including 17-yearold Alicia Gettler, who’s been in the club since she was in elementary school and is the daughter of Sarah Gettler—will staff the center. The younger Gettler has worked for the club for a few years, mostly supervising younger children during the summer and then switching to data entry during the school year. She says being in the club has helped her get out of her comfort zone and meet new people. “With everything that’s happened, these teens fall in bad situations because they don’t have this community like I did, so I think this center will be really impactful,” Alicia Gettler says. She’s in her senior year at Monte del Sol Charter School—with plans to study either music or language at the University of New Mexico next fall—and will be running the front desk part time in the afternoons. Like Gettler, Danielle Trujillo has been involved in the club from a young age, since she was in middle school. She’s 22 now and returned as a staff member after graduating from UNM in May. Trujillo was named “Youth of the Year” for New Mexico in 2017, a Boys and Girls Clubs award that recognizes community service, leadership and academic achievement. She received a scholarship, graduated free of debt with a degree in biology and is studying to take the admissions test for medical school. “Being in the club brought so many good memories and a lot of friends and I feel like we desperately need that in our community, especially with all the violence happening with young teens these days,” Trujillo says. “They need support, they need to stay busy, they need resources. I just think it’s very important for this generation’s teens to have a place like this. I benefited from it.” In a little over a year, two shootings have occurred outside Zona del Sol. Ivan Perez, 17, was killed in the parking lot of the Bluffs at Tierra Contenta in July 2020. “One of the things we learned during COVID is that the teenagers are forgotten and left behind,” Sarah Gettler says. “Ivan Perez was shot right across the street from our club. We started staying open until 8 o’clock at that club to make sure teens had a safe place to go in that neighborhood. But it’s just not enough.”

he runup to Santa Fe’s 2021 city election has left us feeling, in the words of the old theme song from The Addams Family, “all together ooky.” The mayor’s race has included name-calling from “Marxist” to “MAGA,” several rounds of complaints to the ethics board (none going anywhere), an anonymous campaign against incumbent Mayor Alan Webber and more public events than any single voter could possibly absorb. The political enmity in the mayor’s race reflects citywide division over key civic issues such as: how the city should have dealt with its historical monuments controversy; the housing affordability crisis; the stalled Midtown campus project; and even upkeep of parks and medians. While many of these concerns predate the most recent administration, the stakes for all have been heightened by nearly two years of a pandemic that delayed, upended and in some cases reversed progress.

We dispute the notion circulated by some that Santa Fe is worse now than it’s ever been. Yet, there’s not a candidate for mayor who makes us universally excited and hopeful. We’re also worried that the bitter taste from the last federal election cycle still has voters craving a palate cleanser. Pandemic and postTrump lethargy appears to be playing a role in turnout thus far, with slow early voting and thousands of voters choosing mail ballots over in-person polling. At presstime, 10% of the city’s 60,634 registered voters had either asked for a ballot or cast one. (Not registered? Sameday voter registration ends Oct. 30.) The three-way mayoral contest between Webber, JoAnne Vigil Coppler and Alexis Martinez Johnson appears on every city voter’s ballot, and each of the four geographical City Council districts has a seat up for grabs. Lack of enthusiasm by potential candidates also marks this year’s ballot. The most robust race comes for District 1 on the north side, with incumbent Councilor Signe Lindell facing three challengers. In District 2 on the east side, incumbent Councilor Carol Romero-Wirth is unopposed. On the Southside: in District 3, challenger Lee Garcia is hoping to unseat incumbent Councilor Roman “Tiger” Abeyta; and in District 4, two candidates are vying for an open seat Vigil Coppler is vacating in her push for the top job. For the two races in which there are more than two candidates, voters may also use ranked choice voting. If a candidate fails to secure 50%
plus one vote, ballots are subject to an instant runoff using the rankings. The election comes three and a half years into terms that began in 2018 thanks to a change in the timing of city elections when a state law moved them from spring to fall. The new fouryear terms to which officials are elected begin Jan. 1, 2022 and end Dec. 31, 2025. The mayor’s salary is $110,358; councilors are paid $39,106. We’ve watched all the forums, read all the surveys and spoken with the candidates before making these recommendations. Our choices reflect the belief that these are the folks best informed and suited to address Santa Fe’s infrastructure, government and civic needs as the city (hopefully) pivots to post-pandemic life. Circling back to that ooky, Addams Family vibe we mentioned up top, here’s a bit of hope or, inspiration, if you will from SFR: Whoever voters choose should also remember Thing. In the black and white TV show that debuted in 1964 and ran for just two seasons (and experienced a recent revival with animated movie spinoffs), Thing, a disembodied “helping hand” with a mind of his own, showed up when members of the Addams Family needed him most. Councilors and the mayor would do well to consider the character as the people elected officials represent. Listen to them. Let them help you help us all. We’ve said it before, because we just can’t resist Halloween puns during a fall election: Whatever you do, Santa Fe, the most scary thing would be to give away your voice. Please vote.

MAYOR
Alan Webber
A
lan Webber uses the right words, shows up in the right places, has the right suit. He’s been an OK mayor and he’ll be OK again. Santa Fe was lucky to have leadership in line with the governor’s office during the early, hard days of shutdowns and uncertainty. Remember the mayor of Grants and how he encouraged businesses to defy the state public health orders? Our mayor did not do that. Rather, Webber led the charge with consistent messaging on emergency proclamations, and put in place sensible policies such as getting as many city employees working remotely as possible and backing a mask mandate for public spaces with allies on the City Council, among other actions. Webber can’t be blamed that COVID-19 waylaid much of his agenda, and the pandemic is a major reason why the Midtown development plan went sideways and why the city’s audit was late again, to cite two examples. With so much uncertainty around what’s next, he’s the best choice. A second term for Webber would build on the steep learning curve for the job. He oversaw long overdue technical advances in hardware and software for more efficient government and pushed the pilot of an “alternative response unit,” which sends medical and social workers to non-violent and non-criminal 911 calls instead of relying solely on police. He’s made room for interested voices at governing body meetings and has expanded the city’s livestreaming offerings to committee meetings. (Though we remain concerned about some of his less transparent leanings, including his fight against SFR’s attempts to make police discipline public.) We still have critiques of Webber’s per-
formance and expectations for the next four years. He deserves credit for working to commit $6 million in city cash to the affordable housing trust fund, for example, but the housing crisis had begun long before he took office and actions like these could have benefitted Santa Fe when he began in 2018. Long-term revenue for the fund would still beat periodic infusions. Voters in 2008 rejected the city’s last effort to get recurring revenue into the fund through a proposed transfer tax on high-end, luxury homes. Webber’s strategy now might succeed based on his connections and support at the Roundhouse, where he plans to lobby the Legislature to change the property tax structure to allow for a higher tax rate on non-resident property owners. His leading challenger, city Councilor JoAnne Vigil Coppler, BTW, was working as a real estate agent and was part of the group that actively opposed the real estate transfer tax. It’s also great that Webber made a push two months before the election to give the lowest paid city workers a raise to $15 per hour, and we look forward to his support of future changes to the living wage ordinance that would apply to all workers. Lastly, Webber must climb out of the rubble of the obelisk. He responded to and agreed with relevant cultural criticism last summer that monuments containing racist language like the Plaza obelisk and those dedicated to figures from conquest of Native people shouldn’t have a prominent place in Santa Fe’s public spaces. Bravo. Neither his promise nor methodical approach, though, assuaged the angry crowd that pulled it down a few months later on Indigenous Peoples Day after city police stood down from the scene. In the end, though, we still favor people over property and believe an outcome where no protesters or police were injured is worthwhile. The idea to commission a long game like the CHART process with real investment
in listening means those who want to participate in future policy will have an unprecedented opportunity to do so. That’s the right move. Vigil Coppler has been a counterpoint to the mayor throughout their shared time on the governing body, and her voting record shows some of her true allegiance, including to her day job in real estate. She has voted against reform to rein in short term rentals and against a citywide mask ordinance in line with public health guidance (though in defense of this vote, she has said during the campaign that she opposed the idea of asking city police to enforce a mandate and not the broad idea that masks should be worn). Her often contentious approach hasn’t enabled many of her proposals to get traction. There’s also the matter of Vigil Coppler’s late-night public confrontation about a private moment in which she claims the mayor made a gross, misogynistic statement in 2019. It’s unreasonable to expect voters to parse out the facts considering the timing of her allegation—three weeks from the election. Webber has not owned up to the exact phrase, but he has noted that he apologized after the councilor raised a concern about “something I said.” Meanwhile, no one else has filed reports of sexual harassment against Webber that we could find. The allegation does not seem to have made a dent in support for the incumbent and it did not sway us toward Vigil Coppler. The campaign from Alexis Martinez Johnson isn’t strong enough to move beyond the edges. For someone who cites her main experience for the position as her former job as an environmental engineer, for example, she doesn’t know much about the city’s major return-flow pipeline water project. The stones she threw—including words like “high rise,” and “millionaire” —landed short. Change for the sake of change won’t serve Santa Fe. We say keep him. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

Signe Lindell Signe Lindell wants to be known as Santa Fe’s most fun councilor. Then again, when she says that, she is just trying to be funny. We appreciate the gregarious Lindell’s sense of humor most of the time, but the real reason she gets our vote is that she’s proven dedicated to city leadership. Lindell faces three challengers this time around, a dense bench that other districts of the city rarely see. Northside District 1 not only has the most registered voters, it regularly has the highest voter turnout as well. It’s an easy place to spot Santa Fe’s biggest problems, including wage disparity, housing costs and public safety challenges. It’s also the part of the city that

holds much of the downtown tourism core. Lindell identifies the city’s failure to recruit and retain workers in positions from the cop shop to the traffic engineering division as among the issues that need attention, along with ways to stabilize revenue in the face of fluctuating gross-receipts tax collections. This summer, she called for certain department heads to live in or near the city but withdrew the proposal after some pushback. Among her more successful ideas, however, was an alliance with Councilors Renee Villarreal and Carol RomeroWirth to tighten rules on short term rentals adopted last December. The city has even taken a few enforcement actions as a result. The closest challenger on her heels is likely Brian Gutierrez, the owner of a Southside towing company and the current chairman of the Planning Commission. Also running are: Joe Hoback, the former Pink Adobe owner who opposed the living wage ordinance when it passed but now says he’s “turned 180 degrees” to join the fight to increase the wage floor; and Roger Carson, the president of the Santa Fe Association of Realtors who operates a sales firm with his wife. Not one of the other candidates had a specific complaint with Lindell, except for Hoback saying he didn’t like the “erosion” of the city and that she’s too strongly on the side of Webber (as the pro tem, she doesn’t deny that; Hoback supports Vigil Coppler). Both Carson and Gutierrez told SFR they wanted to run irrespective of their opponent. Lindell served on the Planning Commission before she was a councilor and she’s been on the Finance Committee since 2014. She holds a doctorate degree and taught at Kent State University before she moved to Santa Fe in 1984. She’s running for a third term and we expect she’ll get it.
DISTRICT 3
Roman “Tiger” Abeyta Roman “Tiger” Abeyta’s commitment to the most important resource on the Southside matters. And we mean the human resource. As chief professional officer of the Boys and Girls Club, it’s not just his house that’s in the district, but his day job too. Just this month, the club will use a federal grant to open a teen center at the Santa Fe Place Mall that will help with a service gap until the city’s planned teen center facility is open in 2023. That officials broke ground this year was no small feat—a Southside teen center has been on the lips of lawmakers for too long. Abeyta’s term on the council reveals his strong alliance with Webber—he credits the mayor for pushing the teen center over the finish line—but Abeyta has demonstrated a willingness to be more than a yes man, as recently as this month objecting to the mayor’s effort to push through raises. Abeyta gently advocated for delay and the rest of the council agreed with him. He’s an alliance builder, and the council needs that kind of glue. As chairman of the city Finance Committee, Abeyta wants to advocate for bond issues that would allow the city to catch up on deferred maintenance and even pay for priorities such as public safety and affordable housing. Borrowing money against the gross-receipts tax revenue had been a regular way for the city to fund
ALSO ON THE BALLOT
projects, but when it ran into trouble after a 2008 parks bond, Abeyta says the council was slow to bring back the idea. Abeyta would like to ask voters to approve one or more bonds in an election next year. We can bet that the spending plans will give the Southside its due.
Before his 2018 election to the council, Abeyta had a long career at Santa Fe County, eventually serving as land use director and then county manager for four years. Giving up a motivated leader with a wealth of government experience for a political novice is a big risk for District 3 on the city’s southwestern corner, which is also why we wouldn’t choose Lee Garcia over Abeyta in this race. Garcia, who owns a chain of tire stores, has experience in private sector business that has to respond to market forces. He supports incentives to reward customers who save water and reduce consumption through their own conservation efforts, and we think that’s a good idea. His interest in job creation is based in the real world and he deserves congrats on his first run for office.
Santa Fe Public Schools GO Bond and Mill Levy: Yes The general obligation bond pays for school construction and remodels and the mill levy—also known as the public school buildings tax—pays for school maintenance and upkeep. Voting yes on both measures would not change the tax rate, as the bond renews two property taxes funding public school properties that have been in place at the same level since 2015 and 2016. The school board appoints members of a Community Review Committee to evaluate the district’s building needs and priorities. The committee used the Facilities Master Plan and community input to develop a list of building projects for the GO Bond, and presented this to the board in February. The board votes on the final list.

Amanda Chavez Amanda Chavez already has a big job. She’s a teacher who worked her way through the ranks and academia to become a principal at César Chávez Elementary, then recently deputy director of special education for Santa Fe Public Schools. But in her own words, she’s “on a leadership track” and she’s ready to do more. We think she can. Chavez is articulate and passionate, and a born and raised Southsider with two children. (If elected, she’d join two other parents of young children on the council, a shift that can only help governing body see the reality for
In-person early voting and same-day registration continues from noon to 8 pm through Friday Oct. 29 and 10 am to 6 pm Saturday, Oct. 30 at: families in the city.) When she says she wants the city to work harder to figure out how to help teens and support their mental health, we believe her. The publicly financed candidate says she’s committed to outreach and “practicing empathy” that will bring more people to the city’s policymaking table, and wants the city’s support of after-school programs and other education efforts to intentionally address trauma. The District 4 seat is open after JoAnne Vigil Coppler served one term and stepped aside to run for mayor. The southern and central core district includes the city-owned Midtown campus as well as the newest hospital and the massive Las Soleras project. The second candidate in the race, Rebecca Romero, doesn’t have equivalent credentials or seem to have nearly the vision Chavez has; as the Santa Fe New Mexican reported last week, she’s also got a criminal record that shows a lack of judgement. Chavez served for six months on the Planning Commission but decided to step down when she set her sights on the council seat. Even that short experience was no doubt instructional for her, and she’ll need that as she represents the southwestern district where there’s no question development will be a big player during the next four years. The Santa Fe Home Builders Association survey asked whether Chavez supports “amending current codes to allow greater flexibility in height restrictions, making accessory dwelling units permissible, and, in general, allow for more intensive use of properties in existing and future neighborhoods.” She does, and she also recognizes that developments need to minimize “strain on the environment” and move toward less car dependency.

ONE THREAD TO RULE THEM ALL Artist Robin Jones comes from a theatrical background, but after living through Hurricane Ike, which hit Houston back in 2008, she saw the impacts of a hostile climate firsthand. Her resulting subjects are profiles of adolescents, themselves framed within the frame by elephants, sea creatures or butterflies. The childlike wonder we see is contrasted with knowledge of the climate change knowledge crisis and the impacts therefrom. Jones even inserts metal leaves into her paintings in various ways, giving an earth-like reminder of shiny sacredness. In short—a climate change-inspired exhibition that won’t depress the hell out of you. Now isn’t that a thing? (Riley Gardner) One Thread: All day, Friday, Oct. 29.

This is Halloween Everybody scream, everybody scream
Last year’s Halloween was a big fat nothing as the world grappled with the implications of COVID-19, so this year you’ll just have to party extra hard to make up for it. And though you’re not likely to see the sort of monster-themed bacchanal that once accompanied the holiday like in the olden times, there’s still enough to do out there safely and calmly and rationally. You’ll find some mellower things earlier in the day, like the interactive Halloween Celebration at the Design Center (418 Cerillos Road, designcentersantafe.com) featuring live music from the Wonky Tonks and DJ Audio Buddha, plus a pretty huge jack o’ lantern and pizza from Pizza Centro/Oasis Ice Cream.

That’s not even mentioning the bars and restaurants, which we can only assume will have special drinks and menu items, and if even that fails, you can always steal candy from your children and pretend you’re just checking for poison or something. Remember, though, that most people with cannabis aren’t handing it out for free to kids. (Alex De Vore)

Artist and activist April Holder (Sac & Fox Nation of Oklahoma; @aeon_fluxus on Instagram and Tik-Tok) has been tearing it up with a residency at the Institute of American Indian Art, dabbling in woodblock and linoleum prints, self-portraiture and pretty much anything else she can think up. This Thursday, Oct. 28 from 3-5 pm, Holder hosts open studio hours at IAIA (83 Avan Nu Po Road, (505) 424-2300) to show off what she’s been working on, talk about her residency and otherwise just be the badass her fans know her to be. We called Holder up to learn a little more. (Alex De Vore) What are you getting up to down there? I’ve been doing some hand-carved linoleum printmaking and some painting. I’m working on a few other things. I dunno, I like to make all kinds of things, and it’s never limited to just one medium. It’s always everything and anything. I’ve also met with a few classes and I’ve expressed to the faculty they’re always welcome to bring students by. I’ve connected with students personally and said my studio space is always open. I told one, ‘Come on by! I’ve got snacks—I’m a mom.’ I’m alumni from IAIA, so it’s really wonderful to see how much this place has expanded and grown since I was here. Those healthy environments facilitate healthy growth creatively, emotionally, intellectually. Being back here is nostalgic, but it’s new enough that I...was telling a friend, who is another alumnus, all those things we dreamed of and wanted, they can now give them to students on the regular. That’s what we want for our youth. That’s something we want for ourselves, but we want it for everyone. Like I said, I’m a mom, so I always think about that. I really enjoy that my daughter gets to be comfortable and enjoy things. As a former student, that makes me really excited and thankful. I had a wonderful experience as a student learning a little bit of everything, and it was necessary for my growth and what I’ve been willing to do as an artist. The friends I made here? We’re friends for life.

Some of the woodblock and linoleum works you’ve done recently are stunning. Will painting remain the core of your work, or are you always looking to experiment? I think I always come back to painting, but I do mixed media and installation work, large-scale ink drawings on sheets to create a visceral experience in how they move; anything I can get my hands on, I’m ready to work with. That’s a fun and really cool thing about knowing other multidisciplinary artists—we learn from each other. I have this brilliant friend I met last year at a residency named Sarah Parker, and she does painting and collage, and she showed me how to do so many awesome things. I’d done woodblock and linoleum before, but I hadn’t done it in years, and she was the one who got me back into doing it. I get such a kick out of doing things I’m not good at. That’s the most thrilling, fun awesomeness in this universe. For one, I don’t anticipate being good at everything... but I enjoy that I’m allowed that freedom. That, and when you meet people who are just amazing at things you know there’s no space for you to get good at, I love it. It’s like being friends with a superhero. Plus, I have a daughter, and I want her to see things in the world that move her to forms of expression. I’m not going to be her only source for that. That’s not something I can anticipate doing, nor should I be the sole person responsible for that. She’s got this wealth of all of these different artists who inspire and move her. What would you ideally like to happen next in your practice? I would like to be able to make my work accessible in the most human ways possible. Right now I’m drawing out this linoleum print I’m going to be carving up; the holidays are coming up and I was thinking I want to make cards that people can use as holiday check-in cards. Each one is a hand-burnished linoleum print, its own little unique piece of art, and they’re for anyone who has any family or loved ones in nursing homes, incarcerated or in rehabilitation facilities or any of those places where I feel like sometimes we forget people are human beings who deserve to be thought of, cared for and loved. When you’re in those places, things that are comforting and loving and also very beautiful, like art, are sometimes denied to you, and I don’t like that. I’d rather it be in the hands of people who’ll know they’re appreciated. That’s what I thought about today, and I have this rule where if I think about it, then say it out loud, I have to do it. Art’s supposed to be for everyone, it’s not a treat for a select few. You’re supposed to just have it in your life, in whatever form it takes. If someone could give me a good reason why some people shouldn’t have access to art, I’d love to hear it. Things that reinforce elitism in it—I don’t get that. I don’t understand.

Lauren E Johnson explores art’s relationship to food BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
COURTESY THE ARTIST
Feast Your Eyes on This P
ABOVE: The aptly titled “Tomatoes in a Bowl.” BELOW: Johnson in her home studio. ALEX DE VORE
ainter Lauren E. Johnson should charge more for her work. Yes, we’re mainly talking about still life pieces of fruit and vegetables, but in terms of representation and color study and realism, the $350 highest price point on her website (laurenejohnsonart.com) seems more than fair. Too fair, even. Still, from her cozy live/work space in a renovated Eldorado garage where the vistas loom large and the landscape seems to go on forever, we could have been saddled with endless boring pieces featuring mesas and clouds and all the other exhausting tropes you’ll find in most galleries around here—and Johnson doesn’t even have representation. Johnson hails from Lawrence, Kansas, but has called Santa Fe home since her folks moved here in 2009. At the time, Johnson had been studying French at the University of Kansas but, by 2011, she was deeply ensconced in the studio art program at the Institute of American Indian Art. “I was a language nerd,” she explains. “But I ultimately decided art was more important.” While at IAIA, Johnson dove deep into photography (which she still practices, but more on that later), printmaking and 3D arts. “I took all the painting classes, too,” she tells SFR. “but I got to a point where I couldn’t figure out what to paint, and that was also true of my photos.” Cut to a five-year stint working at Railyard gallery Blue Rain (home of Erin Currier, no less!), where Johnson found inspiration again. By March 2020, the pandemic found her temporarily furloughed, however, which led to an important decision. “I decided I wanted to be a full-time painter,” she recalls. “I just wanted to take that leap of faith, so I painted the whole time.” Johnson also took up gardening during that period, which would ultimately feed into her practice as well. Fascinated by the shapes and colors of grown food—as well as the concept of our relationship to it—pieces began to emerge in acrylic: glass gem corn and habanero peppers; carrots and watermelons and oranges, among others. With a dash of realism and a bit of idealism, Johnson
A&C
had found her thing. This particularly works for citrus (Johnson’s “Blood Oranges” looks delicious, for example) and with richer colors found in pieces like “Tomatoes in a Bowl.” Newer pieces in the works include gourds and white pumpkins; all of which Johnson first photographs and edits before bringing over into the painted world. As such, pieces look familiar but beautiful in an impossibly perfect way. Perhaps that’s something to do with wishful thinking, but it’s also part of Johnson’s life. “I kind of put a lot of my energy into developing this relationship with food and cooking,” she says. “The beauty of it all just came together.” It’s a far cry from earlier works, she says, like geometric pieces (think mandalas) and more fluid abstract works. Either way, Johnson notes: “It’s light. It’s joy. And I think most of us have relationships with these ingredients, so they’ll evoke stories and emotions. Food is relatable.” Indeed, though she still represents herself through an online storefront and isn’t actively seeking a gallery. Johnson describes herself as a bit of a control freak, saying she doesn’t know who would work as hard for her as herself. “Plus,” she says, “when I think about the artists who make the most money, I mostly think of men, and I know if I’m going to be successful, I’m going to have to put everything I have into it, and while I don’t want to sound basic, I want my paintings to make people happy. Clinical depression is just... everywhere—and I’ve had it a long time—so I’m trying to make myself happier, too.” Besides, without getting too precious about it, do we really need to keep having “what is art?” conversations at this point in human history? There’s much to unpack about who or what is deemed valuable or “fine” art. Johnson doesn’t want to be bogged down by those details. That’s why she doesn’t charge insane amounts or lose sleep over finding a gallery. She has numerous collectors, anyway, she points out, and completes commissioned work regularly. “Part of why I’m doing it is because I know it’s going to help me,” she concludes. You’ll find Johnson live painting at the Santa Fe Botanical Garden this Sunday afternoon. “It makes me a little nervous, but, I like to perform,” she says. “I was going to have to be some kind of artist, I guess.” COMMUNITY DAY AT THE SANTA FE BOTANICAL GARDEN 9 am-5 pm Sunday, Oct. 31 Free for NM residents Santa Fe Botanical Garden 715 Camino Lejo, (505) 471-9103

38 Doors Later and the sauce poured on top rather than baked in. It’s the style, the way it’s baked, the presentation. It’s everything you see here.” A Detroit-style pie isn’t the size or shape of a normal 12- to 18-inch pizza. For one thing, it’s rectangular, thicker and, frankly, much cuter. It’s also something of a rarity in Santa Fe so far, with Back Road Pizza offering the pie as a special every Wednesday since last year (which you must pre-order the Sunday before), though it has been traditionally served there as an on-again-off-again seasonal item. Door 38’s iteration marks the first time Detroit-style pizza is readily available in Santa Fe seven days a week—at least in recent memory. But let’s start at appetizers—more specif-

f you don’t know what Detroit-style pizza is, can anyone blame you? It might infuriate any Motownhometown readers or Home Improvement fans, but there’s something that feels so off about Michiganders having a say in pizza’s culinary evolution. Nonetheless, in a town with plentiful pizza options, there’s something refreshing about a new kind of bread-saucecheese combo sliding in under the radar. Door 38 Pizza (38 Burro Alley, (505) 557-0164; noon-8 pm daily) is tucked down Santa Fe’s most adorable side street, Burro Alley, as inconspicuously as former tenant B&B Bakery (RIP) had been. Perhaps the humble nature is the point—most of the space is dedicated to an open kitchen where you can watch your Detroit-style carbs harmoniously become one. An offshoot of The Burger Stand at Burro Alley, it’s another collaboration from chefs Robert Krause and Rick Martin, who began their restaurant lives in Lawrence, Kansas, and have spent the past few years gifting Northern New Mexico with gourmet burgers and special sauces. On the comfort-food path, pizza may be the next logical choice. “It’s like a flatbread, and it isn’t deep dish,” a busy staffer at Door 38 told us as she spread cheese on three in-progress pizzas. “That’s an important point. White cheddar brick cheese
ically, cheesy garlic bread sticks. At Door 38, this isn’t your grandma’s bottomless Olive Garden BS. As a critical compass of a pizza place’s prowess, these are a tepid winner. Oh, don’t get it wrong—Door 38 bakes the sticks wonderfully from the same dough found in its pizzas, though perhaps a stronger garlic flavor could make them a more memorable starter. Still, for $6 and with the decent size order you get? Oh, hell yes, sign us up. For the main event, the Door 38 Special ($12) is light and airy, yet crisp and cooked to perfection. With Detroit-style pizzas adding sauce over completed pies, the cheese caramelizes all the way out to the crust’s edge, and the parallel lines of marinara slathered atop the pie—mythically explained around the pizza-sphere as an homage to Detroitappropriate tire tracks—are accented with ricotta. Pizzas at Door 38 are served on a wire pan grate for a pleasing aesthetic, and the square slices are easy enough to hold despite the nagging perception that everything could

slip right off at any moment. Expect this particular pie to strike a satisfying balance right between soft and firm. The mushroom and arugula ($14) pie is perhaps meant for those with a more exotic palate, but it’s hard to turn down a pie with gruyere as its main cheese. This one eschews marinara altogether for a more generous spate of toppings, which could cause hesitation for some, but despite my personal feelings about arugula (some say it’s one of the worst leafy greens), this one didn’t disgust. The strong tones of arugula are neutralized by the gruyere, leaving only a hinted accent that does wonders; it was the recommendation of the folks behind the counter, too. If either aren’t your speed, you can get a little wild with the Al Capone ($15), where sausage, eggplant, onions and white sauce rule in a savory melange; a little weird with Green Light ($14) with spinach, kale and a sunny-side up egg for, as the restaurant’s Instagram attests, “your dipping pleasure.” You’ll find three salad options, too, including the Alley ($7) with iceberg lettuce and arugula and topped by brick cheese and a garlic-yogurt dressing, the Brussell Blue ($9) with shaved Brussells sprouts and blue cheese atop a bed of greens, or, for purists, a classic Sicilian Caesar ($9). Door 38’s staff is remarkably quick, too, and prepped the whole meal in under 20 minutes without any sort of fast food corner-cutting. It appears to simply be an efficient kitchen, and there’s no awkwardness as the staff adjusts to its evolving systems, which is partly why this might become a new regular spot in the rotation. Perhaps traditionalists who don’t venture far from the New York styles won’t find their niche here, but those looking for comfort that’s familiar yet novel? You can and should. If you can call Burro Alley a hole-in-the-wall location, this is definitely one of those places you might walk by a few times before you really notice it exists. Fix that as soon as possible.

Dune Review: Spice, sand and space

BY ALEX DE VORE a l e x @ s f r e p o r t e r. c o m
It’s interesting director Denis Villeneuve (Blade Runner 2049) had such inflammatory things to say about superhero movies lately (basically, he said they’re turning moviegoers into zombies) when his adaptation of Frank Herbert’s timelessly beloved Dune features a cast stacked with actors from such franchises. Maybe there’s something in there about eking out strong performances from performers more accustomed to simpler fare? In either event, Villeneuve’s Dune is here, and it sure is pretty. We follow Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), a soon-to-be space duke from the space house of Atreides headed up by his space dad, Duke Leto (Oscar Isaac) and his space mom Lady Jessica Atreides (Rebecca Ferguson, whom we still haven’t forgiven for Reminiscence). The family Atreides is on the cusp of taking stewardship over Arrakis, a desert planet that produces spice—a resource which somehow makes space navigation and all sorts of other things possible—and which has been under the control of the space house Harkonnen for, like, 80 years. The unseen space emperor deems it so and hands out orders through the Baron Vladimir Harkonnen (Stellan Skarsgård), who much prefers stabbing and slashing fools to peaceful anything. Of course, this sets the stage for space war, and that’s not even getting into Arrakis’ Fremen, natives of the world who build cool gadgets in the desert along-

The Battle of the Scheldt has a highly detailed Wikipedia page, for example, and while that’s hardly a reliable source, it’s fair to say the film’s subject seems anything but forgotten. One then assumes it’s a metaphorical thing, right? But no—there’s no indication that anything shown in the film is lost to memory or history. Weird titles aside, as World War II closes, the Netherlands are on the cusp of liberation as the critical Belgian port of Antwerp becomes a major strategic prize. Marinus (Gijs Blom), a German solider by choice, begins to discover that Nazis are, in fact, kinda shitty, whilst Teuntje (Susan Radder) joins a Dutch spy ring and a British badboy-with-daddy-issues (Jamie Flatters) wants to prove to everyone he can move beyond his father’s influence. Expect that ubiquitous bluegray color palette of most WWII movies. The Forgotten Battle’s surface level experience is passable with early-50s dad vibes folded well with choreographed battle sequences and attractive young people cut down in their

side Stilgar (Javier Bardem) and Chani (Zendaya). To add a wrinke, Paul’s mom is a devout Bene Gesserit, a space religion which pulls the strings from behind the space scenes in a thousands-of-years-old long space game. She’s teaching Paul her order’s magic space voice technique, which is akin to hypnotism; none are ready for the shai-hulud, or gigantic sandworm, of Arrakis—even fewer are ready for the power struggle over spice and space and, for some reason, sword battles led by House Atreides badasses Duncan Idaho (Jason Momoa) and Gurney Halleck (Josh Brolin). If you’re keeping up, good for you! You’re part of decades worth of fandom that either feels delighted or slighted by David Lynch’s 1984 version of the film. If you’re not keeping up, well, maybe nerd stuff isn’t for you. But one could hardly blame you, especially when it comes to Villeneuve’s adaptation. It’s complicated, y’know? And really only part one (as we’re told by a subtitle immediately). But maybe this is a good thing. See, Villeneuve’s Dune tends to meander and keep its dialogue quiet. When taken as its own thing, this could be incredibly frustrating, especially in the slower mo-
prime. There’s not much else beyond that. The Tarantino-esque attempts at tension flail more than they fright, for example, and the three intersecting plots would probably have worked better under the Wachowskis. If the movie’s message is that 1939-1945 was a crummy time for Europe, well...yes. Indeed it was. Here, though, the greater elements lack exploration: British class divisions, how generational poverty helped the Nazis fill their ranks and a resistance that wasn’t purely patriotic. These elements are tossed aside for expensive booms (indeed, so many booms that The Forgotten Battle ranks as one of the most expensive Dutch films ever made), and while it isn’t a terrible time if you’ve got an interest in WWII, as a war film, it’s as average as one can expect. Honestly? There are plenty of worse films in the bargain bin of streaming services we call Netflix. (Riley Gardner) Netflix, NR, 124 min

ments which find Chalamet watching nature documentaries and brooding with those bedroom eyes of his. When considered a two-hour piece of exposition, however, Dune sets up some very exciting things, even if its dialogue is delivered so quietly it’s often painful. Oh, if only audiences would weather a nonScorcese/Cameron four-hour film, we might not be in this position. But when the second film completes the story (or maybe they’ll just go for three, at which point you’ll be reading lots of Star Wars comparisons, I’m sure), then we might have something special on our hands. For now, though, Villeneuve keeps things ultimately simple with setup after setup. Of course, this one’s really for the fans anyway, right? Newcomers won’t “get it;” casual viewers should probably read the book. Did you know books are often better than the films they spawn? What a world!
running Halloween series—this time dubbed Halloween Kills—it really feels more like a cash-in from a respected property rather than a good film worth making. When last we left Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her daughter (Judy Greer) and her daughter’s daughter (Andi Matichak), series beast Michael Meyers (aka The Shape, this time played by both James Jude Courtney and Airon Armstrong) had been trapped in the basement of a burning house. Surprise, though—the Shatner-mask-wearing killer gets loose and starts right back up killing again, much to the dismay of the folks of Haddonfield, Illinois, who are probably so sick of this shit by now. Cue slow-moving rampage and flashbacks to the film’s 1978 origins and little cutesy things for people who’ve followed the series. Cue Jamie Lee vacillating between melodramatic screams and philosophical deep-thoughts on horror and who the real monsters are. Cue Michael Anthony Hall’s Tommy Doyle forming a bloodthirsty mob with current and aged Halloween characters, which then devolves into a roaming band of maniacs who travel the local hospital’s corridors in search of Michael Meyers in a bizarre ballet of pointlessness more akin to Darren Aronofsky’s Mother! than the makings of a creepy slasher flick. In the end, it all feels so very unnecessary.
DUNE Directed by Villeneuve With Chalamet, Isaac, Ferguson, Brolin, Zendaya, Momoa and Skarsgard Violet Crown, Regal (Santa Fe Place), HBO Max PG-13, 155 min
Because so much of Michael Meyers’ killin’ prowess seems to come from people who repeatedly insist on approaching him. He never runs to or from anyone; he rarely attacks anyone who isn’t trying to get him first. He doesn’t speak or plan or plot—he’s just always trying to get home, presumably because it’s late and Halloween can be dangerous if you’re out alone—and he only gets to stabbing people with broken halogen tube bulbs when they get in his way. Could it be the monster’s weakness might be people simply jogging briskly in another direction? Maybe so (and there are probably essays about what Halloween is trying to say, but that just feels tedious). And so it goes for not quite two incredibly un-scary hours that don’t even feel particularly fun. Last time, it felt like an old friend had returned, albeit one with some serious-ass problems. This time, it’s not nearly as exciting. It’s not exciting at all, in fact, so when you have the choice to either go see this thing in the theater or simply fire up NBC’s Peacock app, do the latter. If John Carpenter hadn’t gotten rich off this series, he’d probably be pretty bummed this time. Oh, he produced this one? Nevermind, then.

SFR CLASSIFIEDS MIND BODY SPIRIT CRADLE THERAPY Rob Brezsny
Week of October 27th
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Aries philosopher Emil Cioran wrote, “When I meet friends or people I know who are going through a difficult period, I usually have this advice for them: ‘Spend 20 minutes in a cemetery, and you’ll see that, though your worry won’t disappear, you’ll almost forget about it and you’ll feel better.’” I don’t think you’re weathering a terribly difficult phase right now, Aries, but you may be dealing with more riddles and doubts and perplexities than you’re comfortable with. You could be feeling a bit darker and heavier than usual. And I think Cioran’s advice would provide you with the proper stimulation to transform your riddles and doubts and perplexities into clarity and grace and aplomb. If you can do Halloween without risk from COVID-19, here’s a costume suggestion: the spirit of a dead ancestor.
and I agree. But let’s phrase his idea more positively: To make full use of your virtues and talents, you must develop a strong willpower. And here’s the good news, Libra: The coming weeks will be a favorable time to cultivate your willpower, along with the assets that bolster it, like discipline, self-control, and concentration. If you can do Halloween without risk from COVID-19, here are accessories I recommend for you to carry with you, no matter what your costume is: a wand, a symbolic lightning bolt, an ankh, an arrow, a Shiva lingam stone or crystal.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Mardi Gras is a boisterous festival that happens every February all over the planet. One hotspot is New Orleans.

But the fact is that you’re far more likely to be safe if you are free, not in chains. And according to my reading of the astrological omens, that’s extra true for you now. If you can celebrate Halloween without risk from COVID-19, here are costume suggestions: runaway prisoner, escape artist, freedom fighter.

At age 65, for example, he swam a mile through Japan’s Lake Ashinoko while towing 65 boats filled with 6,500 pounds of wood pulp.
