[1] Residential development that qualifies for funding through Article 14-17 of ROA 1994 (Family Housing Developments) may be eligible for development incentives specified in that Article. [2] Usable open space requirements indicated in this table are for multi-family residential development only. Additional usable open space requirements in Subsections 14-16-4-3(B)(3)(i) (Dwelling, Cottage Development) and 14-16-4-3(B)(5)(a) (Dwelling, Townhouse) may apply to low-density residential development in any Mixed-use zone district.

[4] For all low-density residential development, any driveway on a front or street side lot line must meet the standards in Subsection 14-16-5-3(C)(3)(b) (Driveways, Drive Aisles, and Access). [5] For buildings constructed on a lot line abutting a privately owned lot that is not under the same ownership as the subject property, Subsection 14-16-5-1(F) (Buildings Constructed on a Lot Line) applies. [6] Greater setbacks and/or reduced heights may be required for compliance with the National Electrical Safety Code (NESC) along lot lines that abut, are adjacent to, or within properties that contain overhead power lines and/or electric utility easements. Electric service provision from the Public Service Company of New Mexico (PNM) will also depend on adequate structure clearance requirements as outlined in the PNM Electric Service Guide.
