| Manzano Mountain Gun Club Signing Lease w/Bill Pohl |
Members of the Manzano Mountain Gun Club recently signed a 15 year lease with Bill Pohl for location of the clubs the proposed gun range. The site selected is located just off US 60 close to mile marker 194. According to an email issued by the club, they describe the proposed shooting range as, ". . . a U-shaped bowl, with hills on three sides that rise much more than 100 feet from our planned shooting positions". Additional information from the email, updates to range lay design includes a directional change for the 300-yard rifle range, "While the original layout for the 300-yard rifle range aimed toward the Abo Ruins (about 1.25 miles away), the plans have been updated so that no proposed range faces directly toward the Abo Ruins".
The Club has requested a zoning change from Torrance County Planning and Zoning to facilitate the use of leased land for creation and operation of the shooting range. The Club's request will will be considered by Torrance County Planning and Zoning at their next regularly scheduled meeting set on October 5, 2010.
