Summary

County materials describe the San Juan County Industrial Park as equipped for heavy industrial operations, citing a 42,000-square-foot facility, bridge cranes, high-capacity power, planned gas extension and wastewater lagoons.

San Juan County materials describe the San Juan County Industrial Park as ready for heavy manufacturing, highlighting a 42,000-square-foot facility that includes a 19,200-square-foot shop, two overhead bridge cranes with about 50 feet of clearance and a 10-ton gantry crane.

The materials say the site has robust utilities: a 13.8-kilovolt, three-phase electricity service with a transformer capable of supporting up to 5 megawatts without immediate upgrades; an expected natural gas line extension by summer 2025 with an estimated 1,200,000 BTU capacity; and wastewater lagoons served by the Upper La Plata Water Users Association with capacity cited at 8,200 gallons per day.

The packet describes the park as providing substantial parking, broadband and recent upgrades to fire suppression and lighting. It notes the property is about 1.5 miles from Highway 170 and within a 20-mile drive of U.S. Highway 64. The materials also state there are no zoning requirements and no nearby neighbors, which the county positions as offering operational flexibility for prospective industrial tenants.

The written description includes two different acreage figures: it refers to the site as "spanning over 33 acres" and separately says it "offers 45 continuous acres primed for development." The materials do not reconcile those figures.

County contact information listed in the materials is sjcounty.net/industrialpark and (505) 334-4271 for scheduling tours or requesting more information.
