Santa Fe Considers Water Budget Limiting New Construction
Planners in Santa Fe study a water budget that would cap new construction at 112 acre-feet yearly from the city’s sustainable 11,200 acre-foot supply. Residential use would get 90 acre-feet annually, enabling 364 to 450 new homes, while commercial projects would receive 22 acre-feet for offices or shops. The plan prioritizes city projects, affordable housing, and senior housing, with exemptions for government and school district work and single-lot subdivisions.
