Elected Positions |
Commissioners:
The Abeytas-Sabinal Zoning District consists of commissioners, each with a 2 year term.
Below are the three commissioners who were elected during the November 2025 election.
Albert (Al) Sandoval - I am passionate about helping our community to preserve an environment that is consistent with the traditions of our ancestors - a community that is committed to agriculture, farming and ranching. My wife and I moved to Abeytas in 2008 after purchasing property that had been in her family since the 1700's. Since moving to Abeytas we have been involved in helping our neighbors and family to preserve the lifestyle of our ancestors for future generations. Please vote for me and together we can limit commercial and industrial entities that threaten and disrupt this way of life.
Andrew Salas - Our lands are becoming prime targets for dirty and dangerous development as Albuquerque and communities north of us continue to grow and look for inexpensive options for their operations. We must regulate that growth and defend our culture and way of life or lose it for generations to come. I am running to defend our community from any operation that is not healthy and safe for our families and children.
Alfred Anthony (Tony) Black - My wife and I own Black's Smuggler Winery. We moved here in 2012. We chose the Sabinal/Bosque community because of its rich rural lifestyle. Being one of the few small businesses in the area, it is important that we understand and work with consideration for our neighbors. While our community is rich in history and traditions, we also need to create a balance between those traditions and the world we live in today. Some changes might improve and enrich our lives, however I oppose large industry invading and altering our community negatively. It is critical that we look to the future. We must have the wisdom to see what enhances our area and, conversely, what will disrupt, only to provide value outside our area.
