Rio Rancho Public Schools won approval to amend conditional use permits to permit resident police officers to live on campus at all school sites. The plan aims to curb vandalism and break-ins noted at several campuses, with Officer Russell Apgar slated to move onto Mountain View and other districts considering similar moves. The measure passed unanimously but is only the first step as ARPS begins implementation procedures.
