A project that will see the construction of new water lines, pressure relief valves, and water hydrants may be underway later this year in the Village of Ruidoso.
The Village government has issued a Request for Proposals to build the project in the community of Pine Cliff.
That RFP notes that the proposed polyvinyl chloride waterline would measure just under 8,000 linear feet, with the project also including the installation of gate valves, and “all appurtenances.”
The Pine Cliff neighborhood is located around 4 miles to the south of downtown Ruidoso. Part of Ruidoso’s recently published strategic plan calls for the construction of “sewers and new roads in the Pine Cliff subdivision.”
While its population has remained relative static in recent years and now stands at around 7,700, Ruidoso has become increasingly popular due to its proximity to the ski resort Ski Apache, some 15 miles to the northwest.
The RFP submission deadline for the Pine Cliff Water System Improvement Project is July 11.
