permanent open space, excluding yards, streets and parking areas. Portions of individual residential
lots and landscape area requirements for developed recreational facilities, visitor-oriented
accommodations or multi-family or commercial uses established by DCC 18.124.070 shall not be
considered open space;
2. Individually-owned residential units that do not meet the definition of overnight lodging in DCC
18.04.030 shall not exceed two and one-half such units for each unit of visitor-oriented overnight
lodging. Individually-owned units shall be considered visitor-oriented lodging if they are available

minimum requirements of DCC 18.113.060 and DCC 18.113.070.
3. Each phase may include two or more distinct noncontiguous areas within the destination resort.
F. Destination resorts shall not exceed a density of one and one-half dwelling units per acre including

G. Dimensional Standards:
1. The minimum lot area, width, lot coverage, frontage and yard requirements and building heights
otherwise applying to structures in underlying zones and the provisions of DCC 18.116 relating to
solar access shall not apply within a destination resort. These standards shall be determined by the
Planning Director or Hearings Body at the time of the CMP. In determining these standards, the
Planning Director or Hearings Body shall find that the minimum specified in the CMP are adequate
to satisfy the intent of the comprehensive plan relating to solar access, fire protection, vehicle
access, visual management within landscape management corridors and to protect resources
identified by LCDC Goal 5 which are identified in the Comprehensive Plan. At a minimum, a 100-
foot setback shall be maintained from all streams and rivers. Rimrock setbacks shall be as provided
