Resource District
The purpose of the Resource R zone district is to maintain the open rural character of Eagle County and to protect and enhance the appropriate use of natural resources and agricultural uses in the County including water, minerals, fiber and open land. This is accomplished by limiting residential development to very low density single-family uses on lots of 35 acres or larger, or by encouraging clustered development on smaller lots within those portions of a property that do not contain environmental resources or natural hazard areas and by maintaining the remainder of the property as common open space or ranch land, and by limiting new commercial development to uses that have a resource orientation and to small recreation areas that comply with Master Plan policies for such uses.
