   (1) The qualities which caused the property to be listed originally have been lost or destroyed.

   (2) Renovations, repairs or maintenance to a registered property have resulted in a loss of the historic design characteristics or integrity critical to the property’s original registration or are inconsistent with recommendations made by the CPRC pursuant to 4.10.4 NMAC.

2. B. Any person or organization may submit a request to remove a property from the state register. Documentation supporting a proposal for removal shall be provided to the SHPO. The SHPO shall review the proposal for conformance with this section and shall place the removal proposal on the agenda for the next appropriate CPRC meeting and notify the applicant, the property owners and chief elected local official of the county and municipality at least 30 days prior to the CPRC meeting of the date, time and place of the CPRC meeting where the request is to be considered.
