Las Cruces, NM zoning districts
113 districts, 113 with a written citation. Each row says what the district permits by primary use.
City of Las Cruces, New Mexico (Dona Ana County, FIPS 35013; place gate = the incorporated place 'Las Cruces city'). Zoning is the LAS CRUCES MUNICIPAL CODE, Development Code Part III, CHAPTER 38 - ZONING (the '2001 Zoning Code' as amended), codified through Ordinance No. 3085, adopted October 21, 2024 (Supplement No. 28), plus the DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT CODE at Sec. 38-43, which is a separate form-based transect code (DT / MS / GU) with its own use table. PERMISSION KEY (verified against the code's own legends, not assumed): Sec. 38-33 states 'A = Allowed Use, C = Conditional Use, S = Special Use Permit (Sec. 38-54). Uses are prohibited if not A, C or S.' Sec. 38-49.2 spells the same legend out as 'A = Allowed-by-right; C = Conditional Use with the conditions noted; and S = Special Use Permit with public hearing required', and Sec. 38-41C / 38-41.1C / 38-42D repeat '"C" - Conditional uses: These uses are permitted; however, unique conditions ... are listed ... in section 38-53' against '"S" - Special uses: The uses require a special use permit to be approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.' Sec. 38-21 defines a conditional use as 'a land use that is permitted within a specific zoning district with specific conditions', and Sec. 38-53 opens 'The following land uses are permitted in the zoning districts listed by complying with the specific conditions described.' There is NO conditional-use PERMIT in this code. Applying precedent P3 by approval mechanism: A -> BY-RIGHT; C -> BY-RIGHT (ministerial permitted-with-conditions, the Phoenix 'pc' / Fort Worth 'P*' class); S -> CONDITIONAL (Sec. 38-54: 'A Special Use is a use that is not permitted by right ... requires review and approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission'); a use not listed -> PROHIBITED by the Sec. 38-33 catch-all (precedent P19). FAMILY DERIVATION: residential = the dwelling and group-living rows of Sec. 38-33A (transient lodging excluded per precedent P4); commercial = Sec. 38-33F Service + Sec. 38-33G Retail + lodging; industrial = Sec. 38-33I Manufacturing plus the PRIMARY wholesale / warehousing / freight / distribution / extraction rows of Sec. 38-33H - the accessory and temporary rows of Sec. 38-33H/I (Above Ground Storage Tanks, Storage/Display of merchandise, Storage warehousing ACCESSORY to office/retail, Commercial Parking Facilities, temporary Construction Yard) are accessory or temporary and do NOT establish an industrial entitlement. STATE LAW: no state-preemption layer is applied. There is no verified state-laws/new-mexico.json and none is authored in this pass (precedent P21), so this table records the pre-state-law standard case only. Cited-evidence only: every tri-state traces to a retrieved section of the current adopted code; districts that cannot be grounded are honest-null, never guessed.
How to read the permissions
By right — allowed without discretionary approval. Conditional use — allowed only with a specific approval. Not permitted — not allowed as a primary use. Not resolved — the ordinance does not settle it in a way we would state as fact.
These describe the district. A specific parcel can also be affected by overlays, corridors, flood zones and site conditions.
| District | Residential | Commercial | Industrial |
|---|---|---|---|

A-1
Legacy district A-1 - City zoning layer describes it as FLOOD CONTROL (no A-1 district exists in the current Zoning Code)

| No district by this designation exists in the current adopted City of Las Cruces Zoning Code (ch. 38) - it is neither in the Sec. 38-5B official district list, the Sec. 38-30 general district list, nor any Art. V special district. It is a legacy / pre-annexation designation still carried on the zoning atlas layer. No tri-state can be grounded in the current code, so all three families are honest-null (precedent P9); the adopting ordinance recorded on the parcel (layer fields ORD_NUM / CASE_NUM / ORIG_ZONE) controls. The City zoning layer describes A-1 as 'FLOOD CONTROL' (BASE_ZONE 'FLOOD'), which suggests it predates the Sec. 38-41 FC district, but that mapping is not stated anywhere in the adopted code and is NOT relied on here. | |||

A-2
Legacy district A-2 - City zoning layer describes it as RURAL/AGRICULTURAL (no A-2 district exists in the current Zoning Code)

| Conditional-zoning variant of A-2. Sec. 38-10.I Zoning District Changes With Conditions (Conditional Zoning). Sec. 38-10.I.7: 'Areas affected by conditions shall be identified by the use of the suffix "C" and shall be clearly distinguished from areas in like zoning district that are not subject to special limiting conditions.' Sec. 38-10.I.3.a: a condition may 'limit the use of property affected so that one or more of the uses which would otherwise be permitted in the district being adopted shall not be permitted'; Sec. 38-10.I.8: 'Conditions attached to a zoning district change shall govern over any less restrictive zoning regulations.' Conditions therefore only ever NARROW the base district, never widen it, and Sec. 38-10.I.4 bars conditional zoning from granting any use that would need a Special Use Permit. The base district's tri-state is carried forward unchanged (precedent P26) and the site-specific conditions ordinance - a permanent part of the approving action, filed with the Official Zoning District Atlas supplement in the Community Development Department, with a disclosure statement recorded per Sec. 38-10.I.3 - CONTROLS. It must be read before relying on any cell. BASE ROW: No district by this designation exists in the current adopted City of Las Cruces Zoning Code (ch. 38) - it is neither in the Sec. 38-5B official district list, the Sec. 38-30 general district list, nor any Art. V special district. It is a legacy / pre-annexation designation still carried on the zoning atlas layer.

Lower confidence — verify against the ordinance before relying on it.

By right | Not resolved | Not permitted |
| Sec. 38-49.3.C.3 (ADO-3 is intended to accommodate primarily detached single-family dwelling units, with or without secondary residences, at low density) and Sec. 38-49.3.E.3: 'Land uses in ADO-3 ... follow the underlying zoning designations existing as of the date of adoption ... and may be found in sections 38-31 - 38-33', with three stated modifications: (a) low-intensity office and commercial uses are conditional and must include a residential component (home occupation, live-work); (b) secondary residences are an allowed use; (c) 'Industrial uses are not allowed in the residential cores.' Residential by-right and industrial prohibited are therefore grounded directly. Commercial is honest-null BY FINDING (precedent P10): the commercial answer depends on the parcel's pre-overlay underlying district, which the zoning code string does not carry, and the only ADO-3 commercial pathway is a use that must contain a residential component - not a standalone commercial entitlement. | |||

Category judgment: the section states these corridors are transition zones whose residential and historic character is retained, so residential-mixed over commercial-mixed. Sec. 38-49.3.E land use tables, legend 'A = Allowed, C = Conditional, S = Special, NP = Not Permitted' (conditions per Sec. 38-53, ministerial) -> A and C map to by-right, S to conditional, NP to prohibited.

UNZN
Unzoned / no zoning district assigned (UNZN)
special
Lower confidence — verify against the ordinance before relying on it.
|
Not resolved | Not resolved | Not resolved |
| The City zoning layer's 'UNZN' value (ZONEDESC 'UNZONED', BASE_ZONE 'NONE') means NO zoning district has been assigned to the polygon - typically newly annexed land whose initial zoning has not yet been acted on (Sec. 38-10.G requires annexation plat, master plan and INITIAL ZONING to be heard together, with City Council taking final action on the initial zoning). This is an ABSENCE of an assigned district, not a jurisdiction without zoning: it does NOT carry the 'everything by-right' semantics of a genuinely unzoned city, and it is authored honest-null rather than category 'unzoned' for exactly that reason. Chapter 38 applies to all property within the corporate limits (Sec. 38-3), so a district must be assigned before use rights can be read. | |||

UR
Legacy district UR - Urban Ranch (not in the current Zoning Code)
special
Lower confidence — verify against the ordinance before relying on it.

Not resolved | Not resolved | Not resolved |
| No district by this designation exists in the current adopted City of Las Cruces Zoning Code (ch. 38) - it is neither in the Sec. 38-5B official district list, the Sec. 38-30 general district list, nor any Art. V special district. It is a legacy / pre-annexation designation still carried on the zoning atlas layer. No tri-state can be grounded in the current code, so all three families are honest-null (precedent P9); the adopting ordinance recorded on the parcel (layer fields ORD_NUM / CASE_NUM / ORIG_ZONE) controls. The City zoning layer describes UR as 'URBAN RANCH'. The string 'Urban Ranch' does not occur anywhere in ch. 38 as codified through Supp. No. 28. | |||

Re-read and re-confirmed VERBATIM against that pull: (a) the Sec. 38-33 table header legend 'A = Allowed Use / C = Conditional Use / S = Special Use Permit (Sec. 38-54) / Uses are prohibited if not A, C or S.'; (b) the Sec. 38-5B official district list - it contains EE, RE, REM, R-1c, R-1a, R-1b, R-1cM, R-1aM, R-1bM, R-2, R-3, R-4, O-1, O-2, C-1, C-2, C-3, M-T, 'M1/M2 Industrial Standard', M-3, FC, OS-R, OS-NC, H, PUD and the older overlays, and contains NO A-1, A-2 or UR, which is why those three are authored honest-null; (c) Sec. 38-10.I.3.a / I.4 / I.7 / I.8, the conditional-zoning 'C' suffix mechanism, quoted in every C-suffix row; (d) the Sec. 38-41 FC use table (three rows, all 'no structures allowed') and the Sec. 38-41.1 OS-R / OS-NC tables; (e) the Sec. 38-43 DDC Table 12 legend '(A) Approved by Right (C) Conditional (NP) Not Permitted' and Sec. 38-43.O.4 'Manufacturing uses, other than cottage industries, are not permitted Downtown'; (f) the Sec. 38-44 UD Table 1 legend 'A = Approved by Right, C = Conditions apply ..., NP = Not Permitted'; (g) the Sec. 38-46 LCIIP Table 1 legend '- = Not permitted, P = Permitted Use, A = Accessory Use'; (h) Sec. 38-49.3.E ('Land uses in ADO-1 ...

The Sec. 38-33 matrix was additionally re-parsed cell-by-cell (186 table rows x 21 district columns) and the tri-state for all 20 general districts was RE-DERIVED mechanically from the re-parsed cells; the re-derivation reproduced every authored cell except the precedent-P1 commercial call in the single-family/multi-dwelling districts, which is the documented conservative judgment recorded in those rows (their only Sec. 38-33F/G entries are Private Club or Lodge, Kennel/Cattery (Commercial) and Bed and Breakfast at 'C'). HOST STATUS AS OBSERVED THIS PASS (P20): the human portal https://library.municode.com/nm/las_cruces/codes/code_of_ordinances returned HTTP 200 but serves only a JavaScript application shell with no ordinance text, which is why the structured content API is the grounding source; https://library.municode.com/api returned HTTP 401. The drafting pass recorded the human library page as HTTP 403 and the elaws mirror as HTTP 503 - the difference is recorded here rather than smoothed over.
