DESIGNING THE FUTURE OF SANTA FE:
A DIALOGUE WITH SANTA FE’S
MAYORAL CANDIDATES
1.5 LU/HSW
Course Summary:
The 2025 Mayoral Forum will provide Chapter members with the opportunity to hear directly from the eight candidates for Mayor of Santa Fe on issues that directly impact the built environment and the architectural profession. This moderated discussion will focus on land use, housing, infrastructure, transportation, historic preservation, environmental stewardship, and equitable development.
Each candidate will respond to a set of questions designed to clarify their vision for the City’s growth, resilience, and livability. By engaging with decision-makers on these topics, participants will gain deeper insight into how future policies may affect design, construction, development, and the practice of architecture. The session encourages architects and allied professionals to think critically about how civic leadership can shape sustainable development patterns, address affordability and access, and protect the public interest through planning and building regulations.
The Forum will support informed professional practice and strengthen the connection between public policy, the architectural profession, and community welfare.
