Planned Corrales annexation hearing draws village scrutiny
The publisher reports on Corrales annexation plans. Three methods exist to incorporate areas into municipalities. The proposed area could double the village size and tax revenue, raising taxes by 2 225 per 1 000 of assessed value. The Boundary Commission, active since 1965, will assess contiguity and service capacity. Mayor Barbara Christianson supports growth, while concerns about duplicated services persist. Previous tax share was 6 800. projected to rise to about 15 700 with annexation.

The New Mexico Boundary Commission will hold an open meeting February 16 at 7 p.m. in the Comales Community Center to discuss annexing extra territory to Corrales. Corrales has petitioned east to existing limits, south to Bernalillo County line, west to Thompson Fence Line, and north where the fence meets the village. Tax impact cited as $2.225 per $1000 of net property value, with constitutional limit of 20 mills total. Additional taxes require a majority voter approval, which Corrales has not sought.
