“Economy:
1/ Construction of Facilities :
1.1.3/ Roads:
Every facility, except for gates, walls and trenches, must have roads on at lesat two sides in order to separate it from other facilities. At this time roads provide no bonuses and have no influence on anything other than facility spacing.”
1) Do the city edges count as available to be road sides?
The row from (0,0) to (0, 21) and the other three sides.
2) Can a gate be placed between two buildings on the "road sides"?

Ahh yeah the zero row. :-\ my bad.
I do take it the palace is exempt from the two road requirement then. ;)
On the second question I'm referring to using a gate between two buildings to 'limit access'. The gate would be on one of the two sides considered the "road sides". ...but it was listed as that special case, not needing the roads. So does the gate itself negate that side of the building being considered one of the two required "road sides".

You can place a gate between two buildings as it does not require roads on two sides, but the two buildings it is placed between still do require two complete sides with roads. Not 1 full side and 1 side missing 1 square of road due to the gate.
Question if you have a power generator (1x3). If you have it positioned vertically does that mean you could have one side with a complete road of three and the top( or bottom) with one space being consideraded a complete road as well? This way you stack or sit building next to each other.
Which direction you position it doesn't matter. Facilities have four sides, and two of them need roads. Which sides those are also doesn't matter; any two will do.
