Storm damage leaves Rio Rancho roads and homes needing extended repairs

Rio Rancho recorded 5.6 inches of rain in September, damaging homes, driveways, and roads; officials estimate about 90% of the city’s 116 miles of unpaved roads were affected. Roofers report weeks-long delays, state emergency aid is available but the city’s allocation remains unclear, and bids are now open for Lisbon Channel Phase 3 flood-control work.
