(A) The purpose of the Recreational Dwelling Overlay District (RDOD) is to permit development of identified mountain areas that meet specific requirements for seasonal recreational residential development and other activities to the extent that they are compatible with the protection of the natural and scenic resources of the area for the benefit of present and future generations.
(B) Because the location, accessibility, terrain or other similar features of recreational dwellings are not easily serviced by local service providers, development shall be limited in these areas to minimize disturbance to the natural environment, lessen the fire danger, protect water supplies, protect wildlife, protect natural resources and view sheds and protect and promote open space values of the county.
(C) For the purpose of this subchapter, a SEASONAL RECREATIONAL DWELLING shall be defined as a dwelling that is not a primary residence of the occupant and is occupied for no more than 180 days in a year. (Further clarification of a primary residence is outlined by the state’s Tax Commission in Utah Admin. Code R884-24P.)
