Rio Rancho presses ahead on water waste impact fees plan
Rio Rancho utilities push a draft ordinance to charge new home and business builders impact fees for water and wastewater projects. The plan, already a month late, would replace the current $2,100 hookup fee with about $1,300 water and $1,290 wastewater charges for a typical new single family home, plus square footage based rates for commercial builds, aiming to raise roughly $1.5 million annually for utility capital improvements.
