The 30-second brief
67 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in Valencia County's meetings, most in capital projects and grants. The latest, from Oct 27: OneEnergy Development, LLC requested a Solar Field Overlay Zone (SFOZ) for a 20-acre site south of Highway 6 at Duarte Rd and Emilia Rd in Los Lunas. The item was on the October 27, 2026 Planning and Zoning Commission agenda, so the decision was still pending. This is an early land-use signal for a solar project and may point to future site work, permitting, and utility coordination.
