IV. NEW BUSINESS

A. Discussion of Village Master Plan and Village Comprehensive Plan

Bruce Kelly explained that according to New Mexico State Statutes a master plan adopted by a municipality is to be advisory in nature. A master plan, adopted by resolution, is to be used for guidance but does not bind the city that adopts the plan to any specific procedures as would an ordinance. A comprehensive plan, however, should be adopted by ordinance and should set forth regulations and restrictions of a municipality. Discussion was held on the possibility of merging the Village=s comprehensive and master plans and including all pertinent data bases including sewer, water, roads, trails, parks, and Village-owned land. TSV Inc. and other private land owners are in the process of redesigning some aspects of the Village core, with Village of Taos Ski Valley approval, which will modify some elements outlined in the original master plan, adopted in 2006. In review of the master plan, most parts of the goals and action plan portion need to be addressed and updated according to current conditions and the most recent edition of the zoning ordinance. Bruce Kelly will revise the master plan and resubmit it for discussion.
