Paradise Hills Seeks Special Zoning District Election
Paradise Hills residents filed a petition with 1136 signatures, 71 percent of voters, seeking a special zoning district under 1965 statutes. The meeting with County Attorney Diaz was postponed to resolve alleged conflicts between special and regular zoning laws. Five commissioners would be elected for two years, with candidates being sought by the Special Zoning District Committee and a potential state Attorney General referral if needed. A vote must be held within 60 days of petition filing, with August 28 as a target date, as lawsuits or clarifications loom over authority and Albuquerque’s looming zoning influence.
