Unit 25 Rezoning (TZ to R-2), Case No. 26-100-00011
Rio Rancho
Description
A staff-initiated rezoning of about 14.4 acres of 50-foot-wide lots from transitional zoning to single-family residential, with conditions requiring access only from Villanelle Road and front-yard septic tanks. It died when no councilor would make a motion.
Impact summary
The city denied it on Oct 22, 2026.
Without the rezoning, these narrow lots would be very difficult to develop as homes under current TZ rules — the land likely stays undeveloped for now.
