Pojoaque Valley - Vision 2025Pojoaque Valley is still home to our thriving predominately rural communities. We remain blessed by the natural beauty that surrounds us and continue to honor our historical roots. We cherish our socio-economic and cultural diversity while nurturing and protecting the harmonious and interdependent relationships among all our people. Pojoaque Valley continues to retain its quiet, rural character: small vegetable gardens and farm animals such as horses, cows, and chickens are a common sight; roads remain relatively narrow and typically unpaved with no billboards, vibrant and economically viable acequias water agricultural lands; cottage industries and carefully placed resource-conserving small businesses enhance economic viability while preserving open space; and star-lit skies outshine artificial light. We enjoy clean air, land and water and everyone knows their neighbors. We have high quality community facilities and services accessible to everyone. The Valley’s schools are among the best in the nation. Skilled and considerate law enforcement officers with roots in our communities, encourage respect for the law. We have excellent fire protection and guaranteed access to our properties via rural roads that are safe for us, and our children to walk, and ride bicycles and horses. There are effective solutions for solid and liquid waste management. Lovely public open spaces, recreational areas and comfortable plazas have been developed with community energy where residents of all ages gather and foster a cohesive atmosphere that distinguishes our Valley as a model of community cooperation and mutual support. Because of an earth affirming, cooperative planning and implementation effort, we have fulfilled our expectation for a high quality of life for our families, now and for generations to come. |
