Joe Martinez, representing Santa Fe County code enforcement, told Hearing Officer John Ziegler that the county received a complaint from property owner Maria Magallena on Feb. 21, 2025 alleging an abandoned manufactured home belonging to Carolyn Flores remained on the lot. Martinez described an inspection on Feb. 25, 2025 that documented nonfunctioning plumbing, missing fixtures, floor holes, ceiling buckling, water-damaged and compromised roof sections, unsecured entry and that utilities were not functioning. Martinez presented photographic exhibits, calls-for-service records spanning 2016 through current and a First Judicial Court amended writ of restitution ordering removal of occupants from the property in December 2024.

Martinez said county staff advised Ms. Flores that, to move the manufactured home, she must satisfy a lien placed by the Santa Fe County Treasurer's Office and address any back taxes before obtaining a movement permit from the motor-vehicle division. Martinez also noted a county treasurer lien on the unit and reported that certified mail of a written notice was returned unclaimed.

Carolyn Flores, sworn in and permitted to speak, said she had been forced off the property and that the manufactured home belonged to her; she did not commit to removing the unit at the hearing, telling the hearing officer, \"At this point not necessarily,\" when asked if she intended to remove it. Maria Magallena—sworn earlier—submitted probate paperwork she said demonstrated the land had been probated and stated she wants the manufactured home removed so cleanup can continue; other family members present contested that heirs had not been properly notified in probate filings.

County staff recommended the hearing officer find violations of the 20 20 3-4 Nuisance Abatement Ordinance for criminal activity and substandard building conditions (sections cited during the hearing) and to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners authorize a clean-and-lien to remove the manufactured home and recover abatement costs. The hearing record contains photographic evidence of interior sanitary and structural failures and calls-for-service logs documenting domestic disturbances, burglaries, suspicious persons, vehicular theft and other incidents at or near the site.

Hearing Officer Ziegler closed the evidence and accepted the submitted probate paperwork into the record; he will issue a written decision within three days. No formal abatement order was issued at the hearing; any abatement and lien action requires subsequent Board of County Commissioners action if the hearing officer upholds the county's findings.

The county's representative, Joe Martinez, presented evidence including a written complaint from the Agua Fria Village Association, a construction-inspector's letter finding the structure unsafe under the New Mexico Administrative Code section 14.5.1.12, multiple photographic exhibits and a chronology of calls for service. Martinez said ownership disputes had been resolved in district court in favor of Maria Magallena, the recorded owner, and asked the hearing officer to recommend that Santa Fe County proceed with the section 10 C 5 clean-and-lien enforcement to remove the structure and recover costs.

The evidence described by Martinez included: a complaint received by code enforcement on March 7, 2023; a site visit on March 1, 2023; a construction inspection on March 23, 2023 that concluded the structure met unsafe-structure criteria; a criminal complaint filed April 11, 2023 (later dismissed after ownership changed); photographic evidence showing disconnected utilities, interior damage and interior drug paraphernalia observed during an eviction; and a log of repeated calls for service documenting incidents such as narcotics violations, an unattended death, recovered stolen vehicle and other patrols. Martinez said county staff last documented the condition on February 25, 2025, and that code enforcement has remained in contact with Maria Magallena since January 2025 regarding cleanup and a prospective sale.

Maria Magallena, appearing under oath, said she is \"in process of doing some cleaning on the property\" and expressed that she wants the mobile home removed so she can continue cleanup. She told the hearing officer she plans to coordinate cleanup with prospective buyers who would assume responsibility for the work. Martinez did not call additional witnesses, and the county's case rested after presentation of the exhibits.

Hearing Officer John Ziegler closed the presentation for the 2500 Lopez Lane matter and confirmed he has three days to issue a written decision. The county requested that, if the hearing officer upholds the findings, he forward a resolution to the Board of County Commissioners to authorize clean-and-lien action under Section 10 C 5 of the 20 20 3-4 Nuisance Abatement Ordinance. No formal decision was made at the hearing.

If adopted by the board, a clean-and-lien order would allow the county to abate the nuisance to bring the property into compliance and place a lien to recover costs, as outlined by code enforcement in the hearing record.
