Water reuse price sparks debate over city costs and golf club fate
City officials weigh a reduced reuse water rate of 33 cents per 1,000 gallons versus a proposed 1.24 dollar rate four times higher that would cost about 240,000 annually to offset future infrastructure. Critics call it corporate welfare while supporters cite business help. Club Rio Rancho faces financial strain with tens of thousands in monthly losses and a 140,000 lien, yet officials note turning off reuse water would not resolve delinquent bills. Browne proposes selling the North 9 to Pulte Homes to fund payments, while NMA cautions legal action and resident lawsuits if the sale proceeds.

The Rio Rancho Governing Body rezoned 12.2 acres in the Los Rios area to a commercial district enabling gas stations auto repair shops and dealerships at the NM 528 Corrales Road corner. Residents warned of toxic seepage noise traffic and crime while planners pledged safeguards including a 200 foot buffer. The measure passed 4-2 with two dissents. In a separate vote councilors criticized CNM for omitting an early voting site in Rio Rancho ahead of the $84 million bond election, with two councilors dissenting and calling for a restart.
