County approves 210000 for Rio Rancho RR project
Commissioners unanimously approve 210000 to remain in county accounts for a planned desalinization park in Rio Rancho. Officials say the project will attract business and serve an unserved population while funds from government, private groups and citizens push total toward 2.5 million. Other allocations redirect desalinization money to county discretionary funds and local water projects across Corrales Cuba Zia and nearby areas.
