Our Purpose
Volcano Cliffs Property Owners Association Inc. (VCPOA) is a corporation whose members pay annual dues in order to be represented by the Association. VCPOA represents the interests of the individual property owners whose property lies west of the Petroglyph National Monument and south of a line the extends west from Paseo del Norte and to the west south of State and Albuquerque Public Schools land.
The Volcano Cliffs land, consisting of about 3400 acres, was subdivided in the mid-60s and was approved by the City of Albuquerque as a sub-division in 1964. Agreements regarding annexation were drafted as early as November 1964. Annexation was finally accomplished in 1981. In the annexation process over 800 acres were committed to open space and other City requirements. The property above the escarpment west of the Petroglyph National Monument is about 2200 acres. In the time between the mid-60s and early 80s most of the lots were sold to many different individuals. As of this writing there are over 1200 landowners, approximately 50% of which live in the greater Albuquerque area.
