New Mexico counties and cities share $22.2 million this year
Colfax and other counties receive varied shares from a new revenue sharing plan while the state also gains a separate allotment. Gov. King forms a task force to shape the state share amid early studies by cities and counties. U.S. Rep. Harold Runnels blasts revenue sharing as costly and not annual. Disaster aid flows to Hidalgo Grant and Catron as flood damage prompts reimbursements. Environmental hearings address air standards and highway regulation updates. Local regulators in Ruidoso and Taos consider tighter lot size and water rules as bus service plans advance.
