The Farmland Preservation and Agriculture Commission (FPAC) was formed to assist the Village in preserving farmland, open space, and view sheds, and to support agriculture and preserve the agricultural characteristic of the Village. The Commission is also charged with assisting in the local production and marketing of agricultural products for Corrales citizens.
The FPAC has successfully led the passage of two bond issues designated for the purchase of conservation easements on agricultural land and open space with overwhelming voter support. These bonds have resulted in the preservation of nearly 70 acres of farmland and open space. Since 2020 residential development is increasing once again, and farmland and open space have been rapidly disappearing. Now is the critical time to save our remaining farmland and open space forever. FPAC introduced a third land preservation bond proposal to the Village Council in July. The Council approved the proposal, and Corrales residents approved it during the election held November 7, 2023.
