Pre-Application Meeting ProcessThe Santa Fe County Growth Management Department is implementing a formalized pre-application meeting process in order to better serve our customers. Pre-application meetings will now be conducted on the first Thursday of each month, from 10:00 a.m. through 12:00 p.m. Applicant's whose projects are required by Code to conduct a pre-application meeting prior to submittal, should contact Wayne Dalton at 995-2716, to schedule a pre-application meeting. These requests should be placed a minimum of one week in advance. Developments that are not required by Code to conduct a pre-application meeting may also request a meeting to aid in the submittal and review process. Members of County staff from numerous departments, including Public Works, Fire, Water and Wastewater, Affordable Housing, Open Space and Trails, Planning and Development Services will be attending these meetings to address development related questions. Code Inspection EmailThe Building and Development Services Department of Santa Fe County's Growth Management Department recently implemented an inspection process for new construction within the unincorporated areas of Santa Fe County. This improved process includes the requirement that certain construction activities undergo a pre-final and/or final inspection. The new email address may also be utilized to contact the County regarding potential Code violations that any member of the public would like to have scrutinized by County Code Enforcement Officers. The address is: inspections@santafecounty.org Please indicate in the email reference line "Inspection Request" and in the body of your email the site address and the type of inspection you are requesting, along with your contact information. Implementation of this program will improve customer service to residents of Santa Fe County who are building or making additions to their property, and assist our Code Enforcement Officers in monitoring illegal construction activities.
