The Sandoval County Planning and Zoning Commission on the consent agenda approved VAC-25-003, a request by property owner Vincent B. Hill to vacate an existing 50-foot private access easement and public utility easement on Lots 9 through 13 of Fullerton Ridge Subdivision so the five lots can be consolidated into one 21.948‑acre parcel.

County planning staff told the commission the easement contains no utilities at present and that the Sandoval County Fire and Public Works departments reviewed the request and had “no adverse comments” provided a hammerhead turnaround is included for emergency access. The staff report said the lot consolidation plat cannot be recorded until the vacation action is approved by the commission.

At the meeting, staff recommended approval with three conditions: utility company representative signatures must be obtained prior to recording; the hammerhead turnaround must be constructed as shown on the plat prior to recording; and the spelling of “adjustment” in the plat title block must be corrected prior to recording.

Commissioner Meduena moved to approve VAC-25-003; Commissioner Sue Harrelson seconded. The commission voted by voice; the chair announced, “The ayes have it” and directed the item to move forward for recording and final plat signature as required by the subdivision regulations.

The action instructs the applicant to secure the listed conditions before recording the consolidation plat at the county clerk’s office. No public objections were recorded in the planning file or at the hearing.

The commission’s approval starts the administrative steps needed for the applicant to record the consolidated lot after the three conditions are satisfied.
