Corrales council approves $1.44 million state grant for Angel Hill water lines and fire-suppression infrastructure
Summary
The council approved Resolution 25-43 to accept a $1.44 million capital outlay grant to plan, design and build water-distribution lines and related equipment (Angel Hill connection) to improve fire suppression and public safety.
The Corrales Village council approved Resolution 25-43 authorizing village officers to accept a $1.44 million state capital outlay grant for water-line construction and related fire-suppression infrastructure.
Councilors voted in favor of the grant in a roll-call/voice vote. Village staff said the funds are intended to complete the proposed 12-inch line from a planned tank down Angel Hill Road and connect into the village system at Lomalara; material and labor-market fluctuations were noted as possible factors in final scope and cost.
The village will document installed hydrants once operational and advised residents they can contact insurers for updated fire-protection ratings after hydrants are placed and logged.
Next steps: staff will finalize project details (tank sizing, hydrant spacing and procurement), proceed with design and grant reporting, and return to council for any contract approvals required for construction.
