Cimarron Village & Dollar General

Note that this property is not within ECIA boundaries or jurisdiction- for information only.
The 89-acre Cimarron Village Master Plan was approved by Santa Fe County in 2008 for a mix of commercial, residential and open space According to the Santa Fe New Mexican, the Dollar General store would be built as part of the first phase on the east side of Highway 285 near Ave. Amistad.
 
A formal appeal of the Dollar General Store has been filed and a public hearing will be held at the next Planning Commission Meeting, November 21, 2019 at 4:00 p.m. This will be at the new Santa Fe County Administration Bldg. at 100 Catron St. There is public parking behind the building but once that fills anyone can park at the Santa Fe Convention Center underground lot. The meeting will be in the conference room on the 2nd floor but due to limited space we will host constituents in another conference room until the item is called.
 
Details of the project history, and a separate discussion of liquor sales at the Convenience Store near Ave. Vista Grande, are in the minutes of the Santa Fe County Planning Commission of March 21, 2019:       https://www.santafecountynm.gov/documents/agendas/minutes/3-21-2019.pdf  2pp. 9-15
