Annex plan eyed for Northern Meadows Rio Rancho development
Williams said ground could break in Northern Meadows early next year with North Hills teams serving as a model for a large scale project in Rio Rancho. The annexation faces traffic and road access concerns though plans include Unser Boulevard Rainbow Boulevard 10th Street and Cherry Road as access routes and a major east-west road through Northern Meadows King Boulevard. The project reserves 36 acres for parks 10 acres for schools and community services with 17 acres for commercial and retail use while Sandoval County has signed off and city council action will follow with a 30 day appeal window.
