Minor Subdivision Request: The applicant is requesting Minor Subdivision approval to adjust lot
lines and cul-de-sac right-of-way.
Applications, Permitting, and Enforcement:
The application was heard by the Planning and Zoning Commission on December 3, 2025, and was
unanimously recommended for approval.
This application is to ratify and amend a Summary Plat filed in January 2025 and recorded with the
Valencia County Clerk in February of 2025. After filing and recording, it was discovered that the easements
and lot line adjustments were incorrect.
The purpose of this application is to amend the filed summary plat by eliminating the lots encroachment
with Bluff Side Ct right-of-way by vacating a portion of the right-of-way and dedicating a separate portion
to the Village as an additional right-of-way for Bluff Side Ct. Due to the property affecting a Village owned
parcel, the plat is submitted as a Minor Subdivision to receive Mayor and Council approval.
Minimum Lot Size Required: 7,500 sq/ft
Staff Comment: Compliant
Minimum Lot Width Required: 50 ft.
Staff Comment: Compliant
Density Requirements: N/A
Staff Comment: N/A
Minimum Street Width Required: The street and cul-de-sac are existing and encroaching on the privately
owned property.
Staff Comment: N/A

Whenever the tract to be subdivided is of such unusual size or shape and/or surrounded by such
development or unusual conditions that the strict application of these regulations would result in real
difficulties and substantial hardships, the council may vary or modify the requirements, so that the
subdivider is allowed to develop the property in a reasonable manner, but at the same time so that the public
welfare and interests of the village are protected and the general intent and spirit of these regulations are
preserved. However, such relief may not be granted if it is detrimental to these regulations or the desirable
development of the community in accordance with plans and policies of the village. Any modification

of the preliminary plat, referenced and attached to the condition determined. One copy shall be returned to
the subdivider and the other retained by the commission.
B. Approval of Final Plat. Approval of the preliminary plat is a commitment on the part of the village that a
final plat conforming to the approved preliminary plat and any conditions will be approved and on the part
of the subdivider that the approved preliminary plat and any conditions will be adhered to as agreed. The
preliminary plat stage is the substantive decision point in the subdivision approval process. Any changes
from the approved preliminary plat shall be submitted as for preliminary plat review and approval.

• CALL MEETING TO ORDER.
At 6:00PM, Mayor Griego brought the meeting to order and welcomed the audience. Mayor Griego announced that the Item 3 the
executive session was to be removed.
• PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE.
Mayor Griego asked Ken to lead the Council and TEAMS participants in the Pledge of Allegiance.
• PUBLIC INPUT FORUM.
Mayor Griego asked the audience if there was anyone who wanted to address the council that did not have an item on the agenda –
there was none. Mayor Griego announced the this was the last council meeting for Councilman Munoz. Councilman Munoz was
honored for his years of work on the council and presented a plaque.
1. RESOLUTION 25-37: INTERIM BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS 2025.
Ms. Cheryl Cates presented item one. I'm bringing forward resolution 25-37, which is an interim budget adjustment for the �iscal
year of 2026. Cheryl went through the budget adjustments with mayor and council. Mayor Griego asked there were any questions –
there were none.
APPROVAL: Motion to approve resolution 25-37.
MOVED: Councilman Romero
SECONDED: Councilman Runyon
CARRIED: Motion passed on a vote of 3 (Councilman Romero – yes; Councilman Runyon – Yes; Councilman Munoz –
yes) FOR AND 0 AGAINST.
2. VILLAGE OF LOS LUNAS ADMISSION TO OPIOID REMEDIATION COLLABORATIVE BOARD.
Mr. Gregory D. Martin presented item two. This is a follow up item from things that we have discussed in the past. We are receiving
opioid settlement funds as you just heard. We received recently the $213,000 for the for the fund and this is regulated fairly heavily by
the criteria. We've been accumulating the funds over probably about three years now and the balance of that fund is around $1.6
million at this point. In June or July of 2025, we had a presentation you may recall by a person named Shawna Hartley and she informed
us about the opportunity and possibility of collaborating and joining our funds with other counties in order to both have effective use
of the funds as well as to have a better opportunity to use them on purposes that are allowed. So recently we did receive notice that
the board the ORC board, it's ORC for opioid remediation collaborative. In your packet you know you have the JPA that governs the
overall board. Councilman Runyon asked – we got $1.6, why would we not keep it here? Greg responded, we felt like it was worth
looking at pooling those funds together to make a larger pool to be able to address those problems both here in Valencia County as
well as some of the other counties that that are part of the board. Valencia County just happens to be the �iscal agent for the whole
board. So in other words, all of the entities are sending the money they receive into the ORC board as well. I am prepared to
recommend that deputy Village administrator Nancy Gonzalez, you know, be our representative for a couple of reasons. One she's
worked with opioid funds in the past and a prior position with the Pueblo of Isleta. She oversees the DWI program within the village
of Los Lunas and can also advocate for the village as well as the county's needs in that area in in cooperation with the DWI program.
So that's my recommendation. Mayor Griego asked council if there were any other questions – there were none.
APPROVAL: Motion to approve to be a member of the ORC and to appoint Nancy Jo Gonzales as representative of the village.
MOVED: Councilman Runyon
SECONDED: Councilman Munoz
CARRIED: Motion passed on a vote of 3 (Councilman Romero – yes; Councilman Runyon – Yes; Councilman Munoz –

FOR AND 0 AGAINST.
