4 JANUARY 2015 PAGE 4 METHODOLOGY This research study was commissioned by PNM to assess the priorities of Santa Fe residents living within the PNM service area regarding various government programs and services. This study also measured residents awareness of and reaction to various proposals being discussed regarding the creation of a cityowned electric utility. THE INTERVIEW A random sample of Santa Fe County and City of Santa Fe residents residing in the PNM service area was interviewed by telephone. Landline and cell phone telephone numbers were generated from PNM s customer database. Forty-five percent of the interviews were conducted among cell phone only households, 48% of the interviews were conducted among households with both cell phones and landlines, and 7% of interviews were conducted among households with landlines only. Santa Fe residents who are served by electric cooperatives and not by PNM were excluded from the survey. The demographic characteristics of the sample are similar to the actual composition of Santa Fe residents residing in the PNM service area. All interviews were conducted between January 2 nd, 2015 and January 11 th, The telephone interviewers are professionals who are brought together for a training session prior to each survey. This ensures their complete and consistent understanding of the survey instrument. A total of 501 Santa Fe County and City residents residing in the PNM service area completed interviews. MARGIN OF ERROR A sample size of 501 at a 95% confidence level provides a maximum margin of error of approximately 4.4%. In theory, in 95 out of 100 cases, the results based on a sample of 501 will differ by no more than 4.4 percentage points in either direction from what would have been obtained by interviewing all Santa Fe County and City residents residing in the PNM service area. BIAS In any survey, there are some respondents who will refuse to speak to the professional interviewer. A lower response rate among certain types of individuals can result in a sample wherein certain types of individuals are over-represented or under-represented. The potential for sampling bias increases as the response rate decreases. Research & Polling, Inc. often sets quotas for various segments of the population who are historically undercounted. This has the effect of minimizing, but not necessarily eliminating, sampling bias. THE REPORT This report summarizes the results from each question in the survey and reports on any variances in attitude or perception, where significant, among demographic subgroups. The subgroups examined in this report include: Gender Ethnicity Age Household income Education attainment level Residency within the City or County of Santa Fe

5 JANUARY 2015 PAGE 5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This community survey assessed the priorities of Santa Fe City and County residents in the PNM service area regarding various government programs and services. The study also measured residents awareness of and reaction to various proposals being discussed regarding the creation of a city-owned electric utility. PRIORITIES OF SANTA FE RESIDENTS Santa Fe City and County residents were read a list of services and programs provided by the local governments and asked to rate, using a ten-point scale where a score of ten is a very high priority and a score of one is a very low priority, how high of a priority each should be when Santa Fe public officials plan for the local governments budget and expenses. TIER ONE PRIORITIES: According to Santa Fe residents, encouraging more economic development and job creation is, by far, the highest priority (mean score of 8.5 on a 10-point scale). In fact, nearly half (48%) of residents rate this as a very high priority (a score of 10) for the local governments budget and expenses. Santa Fe residents rate improving recreational programs and services for children and teens as the second highest priority for local government officials, with a mean score of 8.1 on a 10-point scale. More than one-third (37%) of residents rate this as a very high priority (a score of 10). TIER TWO PRIORITIES: Tier two priorities are defined by the fact that each has a mean score between 7.5 and 7.0 on a 10-point scale. Between approximately 20% and 30% of residents rate each of these programs and services as very high priorities (a score of 10). According to mean scores, tier two priorities include the following: Increasing access to more affordable housing for low and moderate income residents (7.5) Improving water utility services and conservation programs (7.5) Improving roads and street maintenance (7.4) Improving police and sheriff services (7.3) Improving fire and emergency medical services (7.3) Improving recreational programs and services for adults and seniors (7.0) TIER THREE PRIORITIES: Tier three priorities are the lowest priorities among Santa Fe residents and have mean scores between 6.1 and 6.7 on a 10-point scale. In fact, one-fifth or fewer residents rate each of the following as very high priorities: Improving parks and recreation programs (6.7) Improving street and neighborhood lighting (6.4) Improving public transportation services such as bus service (6.4) Creating a city-owned electric utility company (6.2) Acquiring more land for public open spaces (6.1) Generally speaking, there are several demographic subgroups who are more likely to rate each government program and service tested as higher priorities. These groups include females, Hispanics, and those who are less affluent. AWARENESS OF PROPOSAL FOR CITY-OWNED AND OPERATED ELECTRIC UTILITY Less than one-third (28%) of Santa Fe residents within the PNM service area are aware that some Santa Fe elected officials want to create a city-owned and operated electric utility. Those more likely to be aware of this include: Males (32%) compared to females (24%) Anglos (38%) compared to Hispanics (18%) Those of higher socio-economic status Those who are seniors (45%) compared to those ages 18 to 34 (14%) Those living in the City of Santa Fe (30%) compared to those living outside of the City (22%)

6 JANUARY 2015 PAGE 6 RESIDENTS REACTIONS TO PROPOSAL FOR CITY OWNED ELECTRIC UTILITY INITIAL REACTION TO CITY PROVIDING ELECTRIC UTILITY SERVICES When it comes to initial reactions to the City of Santa Fe providing electric utility services, nearly two-fifths (39%) of City residents within the PNM service area say this is a good idea (a score of four or five on a five-point scale) with one-quarter (26%) who say this is a very good idea. However, 22% of residents say this is a bad idea (a score of one or two). PUBLIC REACTION TO THE CREATION OF A CITY-OWNED UTILITY AFTER BEING INFORMED OF UPFRONT COSTS When residents within the PNM service area were given potential cost information for the City s proposed takeover of PNM s electric system and then asked how strongly they support or oppose Santa Fe creating a cityowned and operated electric utility, residents were more likely to oppose (39%) this idea than support it (34%). SUPPORT LEVELS FOR THREE PROPOSALS UNDER CONSIDERATION Santa Fe residents in the PNM service area were informed that three proposals are being considered by the Santa Fe City Council regarding the electric utility issue and asked to rate how strongly they support each using a five-point scale where a score of five is strongly support and a score of one is strongly oppose. PROPOSAL: NEGOTIATION BETWEEN CITY OF SANTA FE AND PNM/NM GAS CO. Nearly half (47%) of residents say they support (a score of four or five) a proposal in which the City of Santa Fe would determine its environmental goals and then work with PNM and New Mexico Gas Company in an attempt to achieve those goals rather than forming a city-owned utility. Approximately one-quarter (24%) of residents oppose (a score of one or two) this idea. PROPOSAL: CONDUCT FEASIBILITY STUDY TO CREATE CITY-OWNED ELECTRIC UTILITY Approximately one-third (32%) of residents say they support a proposal to conduct a study which would cost between $500,000 and $800,000 to determine whether or not to separate from PNM and create a city-owned power company. Over two-fifths (44%) of residents say they oppose this idea. PROPOSAL: PASS AN ORDINANCE TO CREATE CITY FUNDED ELECTRIC UTILITY WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY One-quarter of residents say they support a proposal to pass an ordinance or law creating a City funded electric utility without further delay, while the majority (55%) of residents say they oppose this proposal. FAVORITE PROPOSAL AMONG THE THREE TESTED Residents were reminded of which of the three proposals they most strongly supported, and then asked which single proposal they support most. The majority (53%) of residents say they support a proposal to determine Santa Fe s environmental goals and then work with PNM and New Mexico Gas Company in an attempt to achieve those goals rather than forming a city-owned utility. The other two proposals that were tested received less than half the support of the above proposal. Over one-fifth, (22%) of residents say they support the proposal to conduct a $500,000 to $800,000 study to determine whether or not to separate from PNM and create a city-owned power utility and about one-in-five residents (19%) say they support the creation of a City funded public electric utility without further delay the most. FINAL THOUGHTS It is clear that Santa Fe residents in PNM s service area would prefer local governments to prioritize and focus most on economic development and job creation, indicating that the lingering effects of the Great Recession are still impacting life for area residents. Improving programs and services for children is the second highest priority among local residents. Interestingly, the two lowest priorities of Santa Fe residents, among the thirteen programs and services tested are creating a city-owned utility and acquiring more land for open space. This may be an indication that residents want local governments to focus on two primary areas: 1) encouraging economic development/job creation and 2) improving basic services provided by local governments, such as recreational programs, affordable housing, water utility services, public safety, and road and street maintenance. Initially, when City residents received no cost information regarding the upfront expenditures associated with creating a city-owned utility, they

7 JANUARY 2015 PAGE 7 were more likely to say it was a good idea rather than a bad idea (39% support compared to 22% who oppose). However, when residents are informed about the potential upfront costs of creating a city-owned utility, support for the proposal drops and residents are more likely to say they oppose the idea (34% support compared to 39% who oppose). When offered various scenarios the majority of residents clearly support determining Santa Fe s environmental goals and then working with the utility companies rather than forming a city-owned utility. Moving forward with a City funded power utility without further delay is the least supported proposal. This clearly indicates a need for Santa Fe s elected officials to consider public input as much as possible when considering proposals for a city-owned electric utility. Finally, if the City of Santa Fe chooses to move forward with a publicly owned utility, it is important to note that half of area residents say they are unwilling to pay more on their monthly electric bill to cover this expense.

10 JANUARY 2015 PAGE 10 The table on the preceding page shows Santa Fe residents priority ratings for Santa Fe City and County governments. The priorities of residents are ranked by mean score (see right hand column of table on preceding page). Residents of the City of Santa Fe and Santa Fe County who are in the PNM service area were asked to rate, using a ten-point scale where a score of ten is a very high priority and a score of one is a very low priority, how high of a priority various programs and services provided by the Santa Fe City and County governments should be when Santa Fe public officials plan for the local governments budget and expenses. The programs and services discussed below are ranked according to the mean score.

Residents of the City of Santa Fe (County residents excluded) were asked to rate, using a five-point scale where a score of five is a very good idea and a score of one is a very bad idea, how good of an idea it is for the City of Santa Fe to become your provider of electric utility services. Two-fifths (39%) of City residents say this is a good idea (a score of four or five), while one-quarter give a neutral rating and another 22% say this is a bad idea (a score of one or two). Those more likely to say this is a bad idea include: Males (28%) compared to females (17%) Anglos (31%) compared to Hispanics (15%) Seniors (33%) compared to those ages 18 to 34 (10%) Santa Fe County residents only, (City residents excluded) were asked to rate, using a five-point scale where a score of five is strongly support and a score of one is strongly oppose, to rate how strongly they support or oppose the Santa Fe County government partnering with the City of Santa Fe to create a City and County owned Electric utility. Two-fifths (41%) of County residents say they support the idea of a jointly owned electric utility, while 19% gave a neutral response and 35% say they oppose the idea of a jointly owned electric utility. Notably, females (50%) are more likely than males (32%) to support this idea.

They were also informed that a study estimated it would cost the City between $155 and $255 million on various upfront costs and fees to take over PNM s electric system, while others say it would cost significantly more in the long run. After being given this information, residents were asked to rate, using a five-point scale where a score of five is strongly support and a score of one is strongly oppose, how strongly they support or oppose Santa Fe creating a city-owned and operated electric utility. Approximately one-third (34%) of residents say they support (a score of four or five) this idea, with 23% who say they strongly support this idea. Nineteen percent of residents gave a neutral response, while two-fifths (39%) say they oppose (a score of one or two) this idea. Those more likely to say they support this idea include: Anglos (38%) compared to Hispanics (29%) Those ages 18 to 34 (40%) compared to seniors (30%)

16 JANUARY 2015 PAGE 16 It should also be noted that those most likely to oppose this idea include: Males (46%) compared to females (33%) Those earning more than (50%) Those ages 50 and older (46%) After residents rated their support levels for the proposal mentioned on the previous page, they were asked in an unaided, open-ended manner to give reasons for their rating. Reasons given in support of the proposal were: reduce the effects of climate change (13%), reduce coal powered electricity (8%), the proposal will reduce electric rates and bills (7%), and to gain control over residents utilities (6%). Reasons given in opposition of the proposal were: it costs too much money to purchase an electric utility (24%), the local government is not competent or capable of running a utility company (13%), they oppose the local government owning the electric utility (7%), it will increase the electric rates (7%), and PNM is reliable. Notably, 14% of respondents say they need more information regarding a city-owned utility and another 9% did not offer a reason for their level of support.

THE STRONGLY SUPPORT RESPONSE IS ASSIGNED A VALUE OF 5; THE STRONGLY OPPOSE RESPONSE IS ASSIGNED A VALUE OF 1. THE DON T KNOW RESPONSES ARE EXCLUDED FROM THE CALCULATION OF THE MEAN. Santa Fe residents were informed that there are currently three proposals being considered by the Santa Fe City Council regarding the electric utility issue. Residents were read a brief summary of each proposal and asked to rate, using a five-point scale, where a score of five is strongly support and a score of one is strongly oppose, how strongly they support or oppose each proposal. Determine Santa Fe s environmental goals and work with PNM and the New Mexico Gas Co. in an attempt to achieve those goals rather than forming a city-owned utility. This proposal was supported by nearly half (47%) of residents with 26% who say they strongly support this proposal.
