Council restores earlier side-setback standards in Title 15 land-use amendments
Summary
City staff brought back several clarifications and restored earlier side-setback standards for TZ zones as part of a Title 15 code amendment; the planning board recommended approval and the council passed the ordinance on second reading.
On second reading the governing body approved amendments to Title 15 of the Rio Rancho code to clarify notification processes, add a definition for 'façade,' and restore previous side-setback standards for certain residential TZ zones.
Amy Rincon told the council the changes were meant to clarify standards and reinstate setback rules that had been in place before a reorganization in 2018. The planning and zoning board reviewed the changes at its July 9 meeting and recommended approval; the ordinance passed on the council's roll call vote.
