The intention of the Residential Recreational
Community District is to provide for a carefully planned recreational
community which takes advantage of unique natural features and settings.
Such communities shall be planned in a fashion that will protect and
preserve natural and historic resources and features and that will
protect and enhance the natural scenic value of the area to be developed
and surrounding areas. The Residential Recreational Community District
provides for a mixture of housing types and uses, including age-restricted
communities, within a carefully planned setting. Special emphasis
is placed on recreational and open space uses. Business and service
uses are allowed to meet the needs of residential recreational communities.
[Amended 3-13-2013]
All land to be contained within the Residential
Recreational Community District shall be included within an approved
master development plan. The layout, phasing, density and intensity
of development is determined through the final approval of the master
development plan by the County. Special care is taken in the approval
of the master development plan to ensure that the uses on the land
are arranged to provide for compatibility of uses, to provide environmental
protection and to avoid adverse impacts on surrounding properties
and facilities. Innovative design is encouraged. Special care is taken
in the approval of R5 developments to ensure that necessary facilities,
roads and improvements are available or provided to support the R5
development. Residential recreational community developments shall
only be approved in conformance with the policies in the Comprehensive
Plan.
