A. After a master plan or any part thereof has been approved and within the area of the master plan or any part thereof so approved, the approval of the planning commission is necessary to construct, authorize, accept, widen, narrow, remove, extend, relocate, vacate, abandon, acquire or change the use of any:
(1) park, street or other public way, ground, place or space;
(2) public building or structure; or
(3) utility, whether publicly or privately owned.
B. The failure of the planning commission to act within sixty-five days after the submission of a proposal to it constitutes approval of the proposal unless the proponent agrees to an extension of time. If the planning commission disapproves a proposal, it must state its reasons to the governing body. The governing body may overrule the planning commission and approve the proposal by a two-thirds vote of all its members.
C. None of the provisions of Chapter 3, Article 19 NMSA 1978 shall apply to any existing building, structure, plant or other equipment owned or used by any public utility or the right to its continued use or its reasonable repair or alteration for the purpose for which it was used at the time the master plan or any part thereof affecting the property takes effect. After the adoption of the master plan or any part thereof affecting the property, all extensions, betterments or additions to buildings, structures, plants or other equipment of any public utility shall be made in conformity with the master plan or any part thereof affecting the property and upon the approval of the planning commission. After a public hearing, the state corporation commission [public regulation commission] or the New Mexico public utility commission or the regulatory agency having jurisdiction or their successors having jurisdiction, as the case may be, may order that the extensions, betterments or additions to buildings, structures, plants or other equipment are reasonable and that the extensions, betterments or additions may be made even though they conflict with the adopted master plan or any part thereof affecting the property.
D. Any public agency or official, not under the jurisdiction of the governing body of the municipality, authorizing or financing a public way, ground, place, space, building, structure or utility shall submit the proposal to the planning commission. If the planning commission disapproves the proposal, the board of the public agency by a two-thirds vote of all its members or the official may overrule the planning commission and proceed with the proposal subject to the provisions of Subsection C of this section.
