The City of Rio Rancho is holding a combination trivia night and informational meeting tonight and Wednesday at Turtle Mountain Brewing Co. restaurants.

Turtle Mountain Brewing Co., 905 36th Place

City staff members are scheduled to present information about the general obligation bonds and charter amendments on the ballot for the 2022 municipal election. The trivia contest will feature city- and election-related information, and winners receive tickets to upcoming shows at the Rio Rancho Events Center.

Tonight, the event is at the original Turtle Mountain, 905 36th Place, from 5-6. Wednesday, it’s at Turtle Mountain North, 7835 Enchanted Hills Blvd., also from 5-6 p.m.

The ballot has three general obligation bonds – Public Safety, Quality of Life Facilities and Roads. It also contains six proposed charter amendments, including a permanent fund.

If you can’t make it to the informational events, you can read our past articles at rrobserver.com/6-charter-changes-on-ballot/ for the charter amendments and rrobserver.com/bonds-would-maintain-tax-rate/ for all three bonds. The city also provides a variety of election information at rrnm.gov/rrvotes.
