The recreation development district is a special use district designated to guide recreation development adjacent to specific recreational access points and to provide for public facilities when located adjacent to residentially zoned lands. (Ord. 98-6, 7-7-1998; Ord. 77-5, 3-28-1977, eff. 4-7-1977)
The following terms are defined:
PRIMARY RECREATION DEVELOPMENT: Those facilities and structures directly related to use of the specific recreational resource.
RECREATION DEVELOPMENT PLAN: A master plan consisting of both a short term plan and a long term plan.
Long Term Plan: The long term plan shall present nondetailed plans of logical maximum development within the district.
Short Term Plan: A short term plan must specify all development planned within the following three (3) years.
SECONDARY RECREATION DEVELOPMENT: Those facilities or structures not vital to use of the specified recreational resource, but justified by their relation to the recreational resource itself and primary recreational development. (Ord. 77-5, 3-28-1977, eff. 4-7-1977)
There is no base density assigned for this district. The board may, after considering the recommendation of the commission, allow whatever developable density it deems justifiable in relation to the recreation resource and primary recreational development; provided, however, that the total developable density within this district shall never exceed one unit for one-fourth (1/4) acre. (Ord. 77-5, 3-28-1977, eff. 4-7-1977)

The recreation development plan shall include a short term plan and a long term plan and distinguish between anticipated primary and secondary recreational development.
2. Review By Administrator: The administrator shall review all recreation development plan applications for conformance to this title, as amended, and the county comprehensive plan. The administrator may refer recreation development plan applications to the county engineer for technical review and local, state or federal agencies as deemed appropriate by the administrator, based upon the proposed use and the potential impact on ground water, potable water sources, infrastructure, and agencies' ability to provide public services. Such review shall be at the applicant's expense and shall be paid by the applicant prior to public hearing.
