Teton County Unincorporated
City Zoning Code

ARTICLE 4

SPECIAL PURPOSE ZONES

Division 4.1.- All Special Purpose Zones

Special purpose zones are intended to provide for development and uses that are desired by the community, but not easily incorporated into the complete neighborhood and rural area zones. There are three types of special purpose zones:

1.

Civic zones, established in Division 4.2, accommodate public and semi-public uses that are necessary to the community and require flexibility from the standards of the complete neighborhood and rural area zones.

2.

Planned Resort zones, established in Division 4.3, provide for and guide the creation or continuation of planned development configured around a major recreational activity.

3.

Planned Unit Development (PUD) zones, established in Division 4.4, permit variation from the strict application of the zones in order to achieve specific community goals that enhance the community's implementation of the Jackson/Teton County Comprehensive Plan.

(1/1/15)

Division 4.2. - Civic Zones

Civic zones accommodate public and semi-public uses that are necessary to the community and require flexibility from the standards of the complete neighborhood and rural area zones.


Division 4.3. - Planned Resort Zones

The Planned Resort Zones provide for and guide the creation or continuation of planned development configured around a major recreational activity.


Division 4.5. - Northern South Park Incentive Overlay and Development Standards

The Jackson/Teton County Comprehensive Plan identifies Subarea 5.6: Northern South Park as a location suitable for future residential development due to its proximity to many Complete Neighborhood amenities. A neighborhood planning effort was completed in 2022 with the adoption of the Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan on July 5, 2022, which identifies a vision for future development of the subarea while respecting existing zoning.

The Northern South Park Incentive Overlay and three sets of Northern South Park Development Standards together provide a development option to allow additional development opportunities, beyond those allowed by base zoning, with subarea-specific regulations to achieve the vision of the Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan.

4.3.1. - All Planned Resort Zones.

A.

Purpose and Intent. The purpose of the Planned Resort Zone is to provide for a mix of recreational, retail, and service-oriented activities which has a high degree of self-containment and provides economic and other benefits to the community. The Planned Resort Zone is intended to guide the creation or continuation of a planned development configured around a major recreational activity. The intent of this development type is to:

1.

Encourage recreational activities that rely on indigenous natural attributes of the area, contribute to the community's character and economy and have a long-standing, beneficial role in the community; and

2.

Provide flexibility for planning and developing recreational resort facilities in a creative, efficient and coordinated manner in order to provide quality visitor experiences; and

3.

Create a process in which Teton County and the Town of Jackson collaborate with landowners in planning and designing resort master plans that meet community goals and respond to the unique circumstances of the resort area; and

4.

Permit resort development that contributes to expanding the winter and shoulder economic seasons; and

5.

Ensure that resort plans incorporate a mix of land uses, promote alternative modes of transportation, and provide a pedestrian-oriented community in order to alleviate traffic-related impacts; and

6.

Ensure resort plans are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and therefore, are beneficial to the community; and

7.

Enable long-range planning for infrastructure, capital facilities, and community land use patterns by establishing a level of predictability in the maximum potential size and character of each resort area; and

8.

Ensure a balance is maintained between tourism and community that promotes social diversity but does not cause undesired shifts away from rural, western community character; and

9.

Produce resort plans that make significant contributions toward protecting attributes of the community that are considered critical to the community's long-term health, welfare, and well being.

B.

Applicability. The provisions of this Division shall only apply to lands zoned Planned Resort on March 26, 2010. Only those lands described below shall be eligible for Planned Resort zoning.

6.

Capital Improvements Plan. The Planned Resort master plan contains a capital improvements plan that ensures infrastructure and essential services will be provided in an efficient and timely manner to accommodate projected resort demands.

7.

Land Use Element. The Planned Resort master plan promotes land uses that support and maintain the character of the resort as specified in Sections 4.3.24.3.7.

8.

Phasing Plan. The Planned Resort master plan contains a phasing plan that ensures:

a.

Development of the resort, its amenities, and public facilities necessary to serve the resort, occur in logical sequence, and

b.

An adequate monitoring program is established for determining accomplishment of proposed remedies and mitigation measures for projected impacts on the community.

9.

Character Element. The Planned Resort master plan ensures the resort's development will be in keeping with the community's character and the planned character for the vicinity of the resort.

E.

Procedure. A Planned Resort master plan shall be reviewed pursuant to the standard procedures set forth for review of a Planned Unit Development in Section 8.7.3. In addition, all Planned Resort master plans shall comply with the following procedural standards.

1.

Collaboration. This procedure is intended to promote collaboration among landowners, Teton County, and the Town of Jackson in designing land development standards specific for each resort area. While one or more landowners may propose a Planned Resort master plan, and maintain the role of the applicant as identified herein, all landowners within a resort area are encouraged to participate in the design of the master plan. Participation of all landowners within a proposed Planned Resort Zone, however, is not required for the Board of County Commissioners to adopt a Planned Resort Zone.

2.

Purpose and Intent of Master Plan. The purpose of a Planned Resort master plan is to establish the development standards and serve as a guide to all future development within the Planned Resort. The Planned Resort master plan is intended to be of sufficient detail to describe the amount, type, size, location, and impact of the proposed resort, but technical specifications of the proposed development, such as fully engineered plans or fully detailed architectural drawings, are not required.

3.

Submittal Components. A Planned Resort master plan application shall include all lands in a given resort area, as listed in Section 4.3.1(B). The minimum requirements for a master plan application shall be established by the Planning Director and shall include, but not be limited to:

a.

b.

Intent. The intent of review is for the Town Planning Commission and Town Council to have an opportunity for review and comment of a Planned Resort. The Town's role is advisory only and does not include a voting participation in review of the Planned Resort master plan.

5.

Recordation. Upon approval, the Planned Resort Master Plan shall be prepared and recorded pursuant to the procedures outlined in the Section 8.7.3.

6.

Amendment to Official Zoning Map. Approval of a Planned Resort master plan also shall constitute an amendment to the Official Zoning Map to establish the Planned Resort Zone. The public hearing notice for the Planned Resort master plan shall be accomplished so as to comply with the requirements set forth in Section 8.7.2.

7.

Effect of Approval. After approval of a Planned Resort master plan, Physical Development and Use Permit approvals are required prior to commencement of any construction or operation of any new land use within the Planned Resort. Procedural standards for Physical Development and Use Permits are outlined in Division 8.3 and Division 8.4. No Physical Development or Use Permits shall be approved, unless the proposal is consistent with the Planned Resort master plan. Physical Development and Use Permits may encompass only an increment of the total resort development in accordance with an approved phasing plan.

8.

Standing of Planned Resort Master Plan. An approved Planned Resort master plan, as amended, shall specify the development standards for the Planned Resort Zone. Once approved, a Planned Resort master plan shall be subject to the following standards:

a.

Amendment of Master Plan. Any landowner within a Planned Resort Zone may apply for an amendment to the Planned Resort master plan. The amendment shall be reviewed and acted upon pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 8.2.13. Minor deviations from a Planned Resort master plan may be approved by the Planning Director, pursuant to Section 8.2.13. In addition, the Planning Director may approve Minor Amendments to the Standards and Conditions for any Planned Resort in accordance with the standards of that document.

b.

Expiration.

i.

Time-frame. A Planned Resort master plan shall expire three years from the date of its approval, unless a sufficient application for Final Development Plan, in accordance with the approved phasing plan, is filed with the Planning Department. A Planned Resort master plan shall expire five years from the date of its approval, unless there is commencement of construction or operation of land uses or activities in accordance with the approved phasing plan. Notwithstanding, alternate time frames for expiration of a Planned Resort master plan may be established in an approved phasing plan.

ii.

Effect. Upon expiration, approval of a Planned Resort master plan and all rights that are established by the master plan shall lapse and the County shall amend the Official Zoning Map from the Planned Resort Zone to the appropriate zone based on the direction of the Comprehensive Plan.

c.

Extension. A Planned Resort master plan approval may be extended by the Board of County Commissioners provided a written request for extension is received at least 30 days prior to expiration of the Planned Resort master plan.

i.

Procedure. The request for extension shall be reviewed by the Board of County Commissioners at a regularly scheduled meeting, by which time a public hearing notice shall be advertised and any necessary information pertinent to the extension request can be made available. The Planned Resort master plan shall be deemed extended until the Board of County Commissioners acts upon the request for extension.

ii.

Grounds for Extension. The grounds for extending a Planned Resort master plan approval shall be specified by the Board and shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

a)

No Change in Conditions. Conditions in the community have not substantially changed since the original Planned Resort master plan approval. No extension shall be granted if the Board finds that changes in the community result in the resort plan being inconsistent with the community's land use patterns, these LDRs, or the community's ability to provide infrastructure and services to accommodate the resort.

b)

Good Faith Efforts. Activities and investments on the part of landowners within the Planned Resort demonstrate good faith efforts in pursuing the development permitted by the Planned Resort master plan.

d.

Reconsideration. If development within a Planned Resort fails to proceed in general accordance with the approved phasing plan, the Board of County Commissioners may require reconsideration of the Planned Resort master plan and either amend the phasing plan or revoke the master plan, as appropriate.

i.

Amendment. Amendment of the phasing plan shall be appropriate if either an acceptable alternative phasing plan that meets the standards of this Section or a development schedule acceptable to the County Commissioners for regaining compliance with the original phasing plan is presented.

ii.

Revocation. Revocation of the master plan shall have the effect of forfeiting all rights within the Planned Resort to any further development according to the Planned Resort master plan and shall be appropriate if:

a)

No material progress has been made in development of the resort for ten consecutive years, or

b)

There is substantial noncompliance with the performance objectives specified in the conditions of approval, or the monitoring program, and no agreement can be reached between representatives of the landowners within the Planned Resort or applicant of record and the Board of County Commissioners for bringing the resort development into compliance with the standards of this Section.

iii.

Procedure. The Board of County Commissioners shall hold a public hearing, in accordance with Section 8.2.10 for the purpose of examining the development that has occurred within the Planned Resort and its consistency with the Planned Resort master plan. The Board of County Commissioners shall issue a determination as to whether amendment or revocation of the master plan is appropriate, in accordance with the above specified standards. Revocation of the master plan shall be accomplished by amending the resort area on the Official Zoning Map from Planned Resort Zone to an appropriate zone based on the direction of the Comprehensive Plan.

F.

Standards Applying to All Planned Resorts.

1.

Consistency with Comprehensive Plan. Planned Resort master plans shall be consistent with the goals and objectives of the Jackson/Teton County Comprehensive Plan.

2.

Compliance with LDRs. A Planned Resort master plan shall comply with the standards of these LDRs. Notwithstanding, the applicant for a Planned Resort master plan may propose, and the Board of County Commissioners may approve, alternative standards for development that are consistent with the purpose and intent of this Section. It is fully consistent with this Section that Planned Resorts may have dimensional, design, and other development standards different from those described in other sections of these LDRs due to the unique circumstances of, and community objectives for, resort development. Where a Planned Resort master plan is silent, the standards of the current zone most similar to the Planned Resort shall apply.

3.

Statement of Purpose. The Planned Resort master plan shall have a Statement of Purpose which describes the applicant's rationale for resort expansion and the design theme of the resort development. The Statement also shall describe how the resort master plan fulfills the intents of this Section, as specified in Section 4.3.1(A).

4.

Master Site Plan. The Planned Resort master plan shall have a Master Site Plan that clearly illustrates the proposed development and the site to the satisfaction of the Planning Director.

5.

Dimensional Limitation Plan. The Planned Resort master plan shall have a Dimensional Limitation Plan, which specifies dimensional limitations necessary to achieve the design theme identified by the applicant. The plan shall include floor areas and floor area ratios, densities, landscape ratios, height, setbacks, building envelopes, etc., or other lines delineating areas on which restrictions of development are to be imposed and areas in square feet for each lot or building. Any dimensional limitations unspecified by the Planned Resort master plan shall be established by the standards applicable in the zone that existed on the property prior to the approval of the Planned Resort master plan.

6.

Housing Element. The Planned Resort master plan shall have a housing element to ensure a supply of affordable workforce housing that is commensurate to the demand for housing created by development within the Planned Resort. Affordable workforce housing shall be provided pursuant to Division 6.3.

a.

Housing Calculations. Since development of a Planned Resort may span time periods over which numbers of employees and their salaries may fluctuate, the calculations performed in developing a Housing Mitigation Plan shall use data current for the most recent full year prior to application for Planned Resort master plan.

b.

Master Plan Estimate. The amount of housing required and the locations where it will be provided, as presented in the Planned Resort master plan, shall be treated as an estimate/concept, and shall be finalized by the Planning Director as Development Plans within the Planned Resort are reviewed and acted upon. Each approved Development Plan shall establish the actual amount and location of required housing for that portion of the Planned Resort master plan.

7.

Design Element. The Planned Resort master plan shall include design guidelines, and a mechanism for their implementation, that establish design parameters for both buildings and spaces in the Planned Resort. The design theme of the resort shall be defined by the applicant and be consistent with the standards of this Section. This Subsection establishes concepts that the design guidelines shall address; the design guidelines shall be evaluated as to whether or not they address these concepts, as well as character objectives for specific resorts set forth in Sections 4.3.24.3.7. The design guidelines shall be prepared by an architect or landscape architect licensed in the State of Wyoming; preparation by a person or persons of similar expertise may be permitted by the Planning Director.

a.

General. There shall be visual continuity among the resort structures and design elements without unduly limiting variety in design. Development shall be compatible with the surrounding built and natural environment in both scale and character. The design theme of the Planned Resort shall have an emphasis on outdoor recreational activities and create a sense of place. A sense of place is created when site planning and architecture:

i.

Concentrate activities and human interaction into identifiable spaces, such as a plaza or mall;

ii.

Assemble a built environment that connects buildings, spaces, and structures through common scale, design and materials;

iii.

Incorporate into the built environment the natural features and cultural heritage of the area; and

iv.

Produce an identifiable image that is associated with the planned resort and with Jackson Hole.

b.

Architecture. Building design guidelines shall reflect:

i.

The community's architectural character and themes;

ii.

A human scale and pedestrian-orientation, which are created when:

a)

The height of buildings does not overwhelm people walking beside the buildings; and

b)

The ground level doors, windows and design features of buildings create an interesting diversity for people walking past the buildings;

iii.

A built environment in keeping with the cultural and aesthetic values of the community;

iv.

Natural attributes of the immediate vicinity;

v.

Building materials and colors compatible with the surrounding natural and built environment.

c.

Bulk and Scale. The design guidelines shall ensure the bulk and scale of individual buildings within the Planned Resort achieve compatibility with:

i.

Other structures within the Planned Resort when the resort development is completed;

ii.

Neighboring structures that are not a part of the resort; and

iii.

The natural environment.

d.

Signs. The design guidelines shall include a sign component that sets forth the sign theme for the Planned Resort and specifies criteria for determining permitted sign sizes, types, and locations. The guidelines shall contain prototypical examples of all types of signs, including wall, canopy, freestanding, directional, and informational signs. The flexibility extended to Planned Resorts via this Section, to propose standards for signs different from those specified in Division 5.6, Sign Standards, is encouraged with the purpose of having sign guidelines in keeping with the unique character and needs of the resort.

e.

Lighting. The design guidelines shall include an analysis of proposed project lighting. Areas to be illuminated (parking areas, walkways, entries, etc.) shall be identified, and general standards shall be set forth. Identification of models and types of standards and fixtures is encouraged, but specific illumination plans and photometric footprints are not required. Generally, lighting shall be low-intensity, low-profile, and shielded to avoid "light pollution" and glare to off-site areas. General illumination standards are set forth in Section 5.3.1.

f.

Site Planning.

i.

Orientation and Aspect. Structures and public spaces within the Planned Resort, generally, shall be arranged with views of, and access to, the principal resort recreational amenity.

ii.

Entrance Features. Entrances to the Planned Resort shall create a sense of arrival. A sense of arrival is created when the entrance into the Planned Resort is easily identifiable and is consistent with the design theme of the resort.

iii.

Natural Resources. The site design shall highlight the natural resources within the Planned Resort and integrate them into the layout of the resort in order to promote a connection to the natural environment. Consequently, natural features of the site, such as significant vegetation, rock outcroppings, water bodies, etc., shall be preserved and incorporated into the project design to the extent practicable.

iv.

Pathways and Pedestrian Facilities. Pathways and pedestrian facilities, including access for the disabled, shall be integral components of the site design. The site shall provide an attractive, outdoor atmosphere that encourages use and reliance upon pathways and walkways.

a)

Safe, Convenient, and Direct Access. Pathway and pedestrian systems shall provide safe, convenient, and direct access throughout the resort, to public lands, transit facilities, and the existing or planned community pathway system, when adjacent to the resort.

b)

Pathways. Pathways shall be provided for nonmotorized transportation, except motorized wheelchairs for the disabled shall be permitted. Bicycle racks, ski racks, etc., shall be provided at various destination points within the resort.

v.

Transportation Facilities. Site design shall integrate safe, convenient, and direct access to transportation services and facilities (i.e., bus shelters, information kiosks) and shall incorporate the facilities necessary for the proper functioning of the Transportation Demand Management Plan (see Subsection 8.b, below).

vi.

Circulation. The layout of local streets, alleyways, and parking lots shall be sensitive to the natural terrain and landscape. Cut and fill areas shall be minimized, and natural features of the site such as wooded areas, rock outcroppings, and waterbodies, shall be preserved to the maximum extent practicable.

vii.

Access. Safe vehicular access appropriate for refuse removal, recycling, emergency services, and delivery shall be provided. Service access shall not create unsafe conflicts with automobile and pedestrian access to primary destinations within the resort.

viii.

Landscaping. Project landscaping, including hardscape areas, shall be consistent with the overall design theme of the resort. Use of indigenous plant materials is encouraged. Existing vegetation shall be preserved and incorporated into the design of the project to the extent practical, especially wooded areas and other significant vegetation which provides shelter or habitat for wildlife.

g.

Character Objectives. Sections 4.3.24.3.7 outline character objectives specific to each resort area that shall be incorporated into the design guidelines.

8.

Transportation Element. The Planned Resort master plan shall have a transportation element to ensure that resort development does not produce an amount of vehicular traffic that undermines the community's character, and endangers the public health, safety and welfare (i.e., noise, air quality and traffic impacts.) The Planned Resort master plan shall provide an optimum mix of automobile, transit, and pathway facilities within the resort; encourage coordination of all resort transportation facilities with the County-wide transportation system; promote design and management, which encourages shifts from single-occupancy vehicle trips to multi-occupancy trips, or other transportation modes; and provide equitable cost sharing for facilities and services.

a.

Traffic Impact Analysis. A traffic impact and access analysis is required. At a minimum, this analysis shall contain:

i.

Projections of external vehicle trips generated by the Planned Resort;

ii.

Analysis of levels of service (LOS) impacts on roadway system segments and intersections serving the Planned Resort; and

iii.

Specification of any improvements needed to roadway system segments and intersections as a result of increased traffic from the Planned Resort.

b.

Transportation Demand Management Plan. The Planned Resort master plan shall include a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan that demonstrates how the travel behavior of resort visitors and employees will be managed to minimize the number of vehicle trips on the roadway network resulting from the resort development. The TDM Plan will allocate a number of vehicle trips to various roadway segments, based upon the projected traffic demand and the planned character of the roadway segments. A goal of the applicant's TDM Plan shall be to manage the transportation demands of the resort so that it is consistent with the allocation of vehicle trips to the various roadway segments that serve the Planned Resort. Potential mechanisms for managing travel behavior may include, but are not limited to:

i.

Increasing average vehicle occupancy;

ii.

Shifting vehicular trips (resident and visitor) to public transit;

iii.

Shifting vehicular trips (resident and visitor) to walking, bicycling and other nonmotorized means; and

iv.

Reducing vehicular trips through internal capture associated with mixed land use patterns.

c.

Parking and Loading. The Planned Resort master plan shall provide parking and loading areas of sufficient amount and type to accommodate the resort's projected demand, including parking for visitors and lodging guests, waiting and loading areas for transit vehicles and their passengers, and loading areas for delivery vehicles. Parking shall be designed to encourage nonmotorized transportation, transit and high occupancy vehicle use, and discourage single-occupancy vehicle use.

9.

Capital Improvements Element. The Planned Resort master plan shall have a capital improvements element to ensure that infrastructure and essential services will be provided in an efficient and timely manner to accommodate projected resort demands. Planned Resort master plans shall include a capital improvements element that identifies service providers, analyzes impacts and proposes a capital improvements plan for facilities and services needed by the resort. Such facilities and services may include, but are not limited to: transportation (including transit, parking and pathways); potable water and wastewater treatment services; waste management (hazardous and solid); utilities; stormwater management and snow storage facilities.

a.

Identification and Acknowledgment of Service Providers. The applicant shall identify the provider of all infrastructure facilities and services included in the plan. Where services are to be provided by an entity other than the applicant, documents from the service provider shall demonstrate the commitment and ability to provide such service according to the Planned Resort master plan.

b.

Impact Analysis. An impact analysis shall be performed for all facilities and services, unless waived by the Planning Director. Each impact analysis shall identify the following:

i.

Maximum daily peak capacity of existing facilities;

ii.

Current daily peak demand on existing capacity;

iii.

Daily peak capacity available for new development;

iv.

Projected daily peak demand generated by new development in the Planned Resort. When development outside of a resort is reasonably anticipated to utilize the same infrastructure system as the resort, the County Planning Department shall provide the applicant with estimated peak demand;

v.

Any planned improvements by other entities, such as the Town of Jackson or the Teton Village Water and Sewer District, and the timing of such improvements;

vi.

Any deficits in daily peak capacity potentially resulting from development within the Planned Resort—either from a strict demand standpoint or from a timing standpoint—taking into account other potential new development outside the Planned Resort.

c.

Capital Improvements Program. The capital improvements plan shall be consistent with the impact analyses and specify how any deficiencies in infrastructure will be remedied or mitigated, including descriptions of the infrastructure improvements, the responsibility and sources of funding for the improvements, and the timing for completion of improvements. Concept plans for improvements shall be included in the capital improvements plan. Engineered plans shall be provided in the final development plan application for subsequent development.

10.

Land Use Element. The Planned Resort development shall have a land use element that identifies the land uses within a proposed Planned Resort. The land uses shall be consistent with both the applicant's design theme and the character objectives for the resort, as specified in Sections 4.3.24.3.7.

a.

Permitted Uses. The type of development permitted within a Planned Resort shall be set forth in the Planned Resort master plan and shall be consistent with the following:

i.

Residential uses shall be permitted;

ii.

Uses necessary for operation of the resort's primary recreational activity (ski area, hot springs) shall be permitted;

iii.

Nonresidential uses that provide for the basic needs of the resort's lodging guests, day visitors, employees and vicinity residents shall be permitted;

iv.

Regional-serving commercial uses which rely upon vehicle trips from a community-wide market area rather than the Planned Resort vicinity shall be prohibited, unless they are determined by the Board of County Commissioners to be resort-related amenities;

v.

Commercial amusement activities that are detrimental to the outdoor, natural resource character of Teton County shall be prohibited; and

vi.

Special events such as music and dance festivals, art and craft shows, concerts, live theater, and similar events which are compatible with the resort and its facilities shall be permitted.

b.

Amount and Type of Development. The amount and type of development in a Planned Resort master plan shall be consistent with:

i.

The applicant's rationale for resort expansion and the character objectives for the resort area pursuant to Sections 4.3.24.3.7;

ii.

The overall amount of development that can be permitted while preserving community character, as reflected in the Jackson/Teton County Comprehensive Plan and the Town and County's LDRs;

iii.

The amount of infrastructure capacity that can be provided while maintaining consistency with community character goals; and

iv.

Providing a level of self-sufficiency within the resort, such that vehicle trips ending outside the resort are minimized.

11.

Phasing Element. The Planned Resort development shall have a phasing element to ensure that development within a Planned Resort occurs in logical sequence within the Planned Resort, including amenities and necessary public service expansions. Planned Resort master plans shall contain a phasing plan that identifies the sequence of resort structures, uses and amenities, installation of infrastructure, implementation of the Transportation Demand Management Plan, Housing Mitigation Plan, and implementation of Planned Resort master plan conditions of approval.

a.

Description. All structures, land use activities, mitigation strategies, and infrastructure expansions proposed, including such activities and improvements on public lands, shall be included in the phasing plan.

b.

Functional Phases. Each phase shall be self-sufficient, in conjunction with existing elements of the Planned Resort, i.e., transportation and parking needs, as well as amenities for each phase, shall be satisfied within each phase and shall not be dependent upon a future phase. Each phase shall represent a logical and compact extension of infrastructure and public services. In order to develop certain improvements in logical increments that provide for economies of scale, the phasing plan may propose that improvements required for an earlier phase be provided in a later phase only if:

i.

The delayed construction of the improvement does not create a negative impact or exacerbate an existing problematic condition; and

ii.

Financial assurance, in a form acceptable to the Board of County Commissioners, is provided, i.e., letter of credit, that the improvement required for the earlier phase will be developed within a certain time-frame, even if later phases remain undeveloped.

c.

Coordinated with Public Services. Phasing shall be coordinated with the improvements schedule or capital improvements program of public or semipublic service providers, as identified in the Capital Improvements Element.

d.

Relationship of Phasing to Overall Resort Plan. Phasing shall implement the stated purpose of the Planned Resort master plan, i.e., if a destination ski area is the basis for the resort plan, the ski area facilities should not be the last increment of development. Similarly, open space dedications, amenities, and required performances that mitigate the impacts of the resort shall be developed or provided in proportion to the type and amount of development in each phase.

e.

Performance Objectives. The County shall establish performance objectives as part of the Planned Resort master plan approval that ensure that development within the Planned Resort achieves the required mitigation of projected impacts on the community. The resort developers shall be responsible for ensuring that proposed mitigation measures are effective.

EXAMPLE:The resort approval may require vehicle trip reduction techniques in order to avoid undesired vehicle trips. Performance objectives shall be identified and incorporated into a monitoring program, described below.

f.

Monitoring Program. A program for monitoring compliance with performance objectives for each phase of development shall be designed in a collaborative effort between the applicant(s) and the County, and shall be set forth in the Planned Resort master plan approval. The monitoring program shall be implemented by the applicant, or an entity that equitably represents all landowners within the Planned Resort, and will include monitoring of TDM components, affordable workforce housing developments, and other such elements as identified by the Board of County Commissioners.

i.

Program Contents. The monitoring program shall specify data collection needs, responsibility for data collection, techniques to be used in analyzing data, how the data shall be used to determine achievement of performance objectives, and the schedule for reporting to the County the results of the monitoring effort.

ii.

Program Results. Representatives of the landowners within the Planned Resort shall have three reporting opportunities to demonstrate achievement of performance objectives. If, by the third scheduled report, the resort has been unable to meet any specified performance objective, the Planned Resort master plan may be subject to reconsideration pursuant to Subsection E.8.d.

g.

Achievement of Performance Objectives. Approval of future final development plans may be delayed until the performance objectives of the previous phases are met or a strategy for achieving them has been approved by the Board of County Commissioners.

12.

Community Services Element (Optional). Resorts function as integral parts of the community by participating in civic initiatives and implementing the goals of the community. The optional community services element is intended to be a component of the Planned Resort master plan in which the benefits that the resort area provides to the community are acknowledged. Landowners within Planned Resorts are encouraged to continue with, and expand upon, programs designed to retain local access to the resort's main recreational activity and facilities. Community service programs help to maintain a balance at the resort between out-of-town visitors and the community, and contribute to the quality of life in the community. Examples of community services currently provided are:

a.

Hosting activities for local disabled persons;

b.

Hosting Parks & Recreation Department activities;

c.

Providing trail head access to public forest land;

d.

Hosting local nonprofit events, including free recreational activities and transportation;

e.

Offering reduced facility rates for community events and nonprofit organizations;

f.

Offering local appreciation and promotional reduction in activity fees; and

g.

Offering activity fees that are affordable to the permanent population.

13.

Character Element. Each Planned Resort master plan shall have a character element to ensure that resort development is in keeping with the community's character and the planned character for the vicinity in which the resort development is located.

a.

Establishment of Character. Character standards are unique to each resort area in order to recognize the differences between the individual resorts, the planned character of their neighborhoods, and the community's expectation of resort development in that vicinity. The character for each Planned Resort Zone is established in Sections 4.3.24.3.7.

b.

General. The standards specified for each Planned Resort Zone (Sections 4.3.24.3.7) are the minimum required, or maximum permitted, as indicated by a "no less than" or "no more than" statement. Minimum requirements may be increased in order to avoid or mitigate impacts of a specific Planned Resort master plan proposal, better achieve the character objectives for the resort, or better implement the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. Similarly, an applicant's ability to achieve the maximums permitted is dependent upon the Planned Resort master plan's avoidance or mitigation of negative impacts on the community, its achievement of the character objectives for the resort, or its contribution toward achievement of the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.

c.

Definitions. The following definitions shall be used when evaluating each Planned Resort Zone:

i.

Guest. A guest is a person who is accommodated in overnight lodging facilities within the Planned Resort. The number of guests is calculated by the "average peak occupancy" of the lodging accommodations.

ii.

Average Peak Occupancy. For the purposes of this Section, the following average peak occupancies (APOs) shall be used in calculating the capacity of guest accommodations:

a)

Hotel, Motel, or Similar Lodging Unit. A hotel, motel, or similar lodging unit that exists as sleeping quarters only, and does not contain other types of living spaces such as a living room or kitchen, shall be assigned an APO of two.

b)

Dwelling Unit. A dwelling unit, used for short term rental, shall be assigned an APO of four.

c)

Other. Other lodging facilities that do not meet the definitions above shall have an APO assigned that is the sum of the number of bedrooms the lodging facility contains multiplied by two.

G.

Increased Density Limited to Affordable Workforce Housing. An amendment to a Planned Resort master plan shall not increase residential density except to provide affordable workforce housing that meets the standards of Division 6.3.

1.

Rental affordable workforce housing shall be for the benefit of housing persons employed within the boundaries of the resort within which the housing is located. In the event there are no persons directly employed within the resort who qualify to rent the unit, the unit shall be first offered to other qualified households, a member of which is employed within five miles of the unit. If there are no such persons then the residential unit may be rented to any person employed within Teton County.

These guests shall be allocated to the commercial and residential properties at Teton Village in accordance with the approved Area One Resort Master Plan.

2.

Retail, Office, and Other Commercial Type Uses. Within Area One, there shall be no more than 208,000 sf of retail/office or other commercial-type uses not including lodging, ski area operations, institutional or public/semipublic type development. This commercial square footage shall be allocated to the commercial lots and tracts in accordance with the approved Teton Village Master Plan.

3.

Institutional, Public and Semipublic Uses. Twenty-seven thousand (27,000) square feet shall be constructed for development of institutional, public and semipublic uses such as religious institutions, public meeting/theatre space, and visitor's center used for non-retail purposes.

4.

Resort Support Uses. Resort support uses shall be allowed to the extent permitted in the approved Area One Resort Master Plan, and are defined as facilities that provide amenities or that are utilized to operate the overall resort, and shall not be considered commercial uses.

E.

Skier Visits. If daily skier visits exceed 9,200 skiers on more than 12 days within a season, for any three consecutive years, then evaluation of the Area One Resort Master Plan's remedies, mitigation measures and achievement of performance criteria as specified in the phasing plan shall be performed by the ski area operator and the Planning Director in order to ensure that the increased skier numbers are of no greater impact to the community than the number assumed when the master plan was approved. The results of the evaluation shall be presented to the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners. If any failure of the remedies, mitigation measures, or achievement of performance criteria as specified in the phasing plan is found, then the Area One Resort Master Plan shall be reconsidered, pursuant to Section 4.3.1(E.8.d).

F.

Intensity. No more than 2.5 floor area ratio shall be permitted on any platted lot within the Jackson Hole Ski Corporation Additions, First Filing-Amended, Fifth Filing, Twelfth Filing, Thirteenth Filing, Fourteenth Filing, or any subsequent replat thereof. The intensity on the remainder of the nonresidentially developable lands, known as Tracts G/H, X/Y, and the maintenance parcel, shall not exceed 1.0 FAR calculated overall, regardless of subsequent subdivision of these lands.

G.

Landscape Surface Area. The minimum landscape surface area provided within the Planned Resort shall be 25% of the total private land area described in Section 4.3.3(A), exclusive of the platted residential lands. Notwithstanding, the Board of County Commissioners may reduce the minimum landscape surface area to no less than 20% upon demonstration by the applicant that the following objectives are achieved with a reduced landscape surface area:

1.

The landscape surface area creates a quality urban village design and creates public spaces for interaction and public events; and

2.

The landscape surface area creates a clear boundary for the resort.

H.

Environmental or Visual Analysis. If land within Teton Village Area One is within the Scenic Resources Overlay, an EA with a visual component or a Visual Resources Analysis dealing with maintenance of the scenic corridor shall be required, pursuant to the standards in Section 5.3.2.

I.

Off-Site Parking. Parking may be proposed off-site provided the Transportation element demonstrates the off-site parking serves a significant role in the Transportation Demand Management Plan.

J.

Area One Platted Residential Lands. The platted residential lands included in Teton Village Area One, as described in Section 4.3.3(A), are included to ensure their continued relationship to the resort. The intent is that the type and intensity of development on these residential lands comply with the zone in which the residential lands are located upon enactment of this Section. Notwithstanding, Lots 171 and 172 of the Jackson Hole Ski Corporation 9th Filing owned by the Teton Village Water & Sewer District may be developed in accordance with Section 4.3.3(M) below.

K.

Relationship to Grand Teton National Park. Programs and facilities shall be established that encourage non-motorized access into GTNP, in conjunction with National Park Service planning efforts and goals.

b)

Proposed method of provision. The method or combination of methods by which deed-restricted housing is to be provided.

c.

Method for Providing Affordable and Workforce Housing.

i.

Standards Applicable to All Methods.

a)

Location. Deed-restricted housing shall be developed within the same Area of the Northern South Park Incentive Overlay as the corresponding unrestricted development.

1)

Within practical limitations imposed by Section 4.5.2(F.2.c.ii) (Construction) and Section 4.5.2(F.2.c.iii) (Conveyance of Land), deed-restricted housing units shall be integrated with unrestricted units within the Northern South Park Overlay.

ii.

Construction. Construction of deed-restricted housing shall comply with the following standards.

a)

Deed Restrictions. Prior to receiving Certificate of Occupancy, all affordable and workforce housing units shall have an allowed deed-restriction recorded with the Teton County Clerk.

b)

Timing. The Affordable and Workforce Housing Plan shall establish a phasing plan for the construction of the deed-restricted units. At a minimum, the phasing plan shall require that when 50% of the unrestricted new units in the Development Plan have been issued building permits, no additional building permits for unrestricted new units may be issued until certificates of occupancy are issued for affordable new units amounting to at least 20% of the number of unrestricted new units in the Development Plan that have been issued building permits.

The Board of County Commissioners may require financial assurances from the applicant to guarantee that the construction of the deed-restricted housing units will occur in a timely manner.

EXAMPLE:If 100 total new units are proposed in a single Development Plan, 30 may be unrestricted new units, and at least 40 are affordable new units. Once 15 (50% of 30) building permits have been issued for the unrestricted units, certificates of occupancy must be issued for at least three (20% of 15) affordable units before building permits are issued for the remaining 15 new unrestricted units.

iii.

Conveyance of Land. Conveyance of land to satisfy the allocation of deed-restricted housing shall comply with the following standards.

a)

Recipient. Land may only be conveyed to the County or to a bona fide affordable and/or workforce housing developer directly. The recipient of land conveyed pursuant to this Section shall be approved at the discretion of the Board of County Commissioners, except that no approval is required if the land will be conveyed to the Jackson Hole Community Housing Trust or to Habitat for Humanity of the Greater Teton Area.

b)

Timing.

1)

Land conveyance shall occur prior to issuance of a Development Permit for any physical development or subdivision of land for unrestricted new dwelling units.

2)

When 50% of the unrestricted new units for an NSP Area have received Development Plan approval, no Development Plans shall be approved within such NSP area for additional unrestricted new units utilizing the land conveyance method, pursuant to this Section, until building permits are issued for an amount of affordable new units in such NSP Area equal to 20% of the amount of such unrestricted new units. If a sufficient amount of new affordable housing units have not been issued building permits pursuant to this paragraph, the Board of County Commissioners may approve financial assurances proposed by the applicant for the unrestricted units to guarantee that construction of such affordable housing units will occur in a timely manner so additional Development Plans may be approved, and corresponding land conveyed, in accordance with this Section.

EXAMPLE:The number of unrestricted new units allowed in NSP Area 1 is 180. When 90 (50% of 180) unrestricted new units in NSP Area 1 have received Development Plan approval, no Development Plans for additional unrestricted new units may be approved until building permits have been issued for at least 18 (20% of 90) affordable new units in NSP Area 1.

c)

Amount. Land conveyed shall, at the minimum, be in an amount that allows for construction, under the NSP Development Standards applicable to the land at the time of conveyance, of the amount of deed-restricted housing units commensurate with the unrestricted dwelling units approved by a Development Plan for physical development or subdivision.

1)

The minimum amount of land conveyed shall be determined based on the number of deed-restricted units identified in the Affordable and Workforce Housing Plan. The applicant shall demonstrate that the land conveyed is of an amount sufficient to accommodate the deed-restricted housing units.

d)

Clear Title. Land conveyed shall have clear title, physical and legal access, and be free of any liens.

e)

Onsite Infrastructure. Land conveyed shall be fully ready for development and construction, with roads and pathways, water supply, sewage disposal, stormwater system, communication, electricity, and other basic services installed with direct and sufficient access to the conveyed land, corresponding with the approved Master Site Plan and its Capital Improvements Element.

f)

4.5.4. - NSP-2: Northern South Park-2 Development Standards.

A.

Intent.

1.

General Intent. The intent of the Northern South Park-2 (NSP-2) development standards is to provide a range of medium to higher density residential development that enable a transition in scale and intensity between NSP-1 and NSP-3, using a broad range of detached and attached residential types in a walkable environment. The size of individual buildings will be limited to not exceed the scale of a large, single-family dwelling.

2.

Buildings. Buildings can be up to two stories in height. Multiple detached buildings or multiple attached units on a site is common. No more than eight units will be permitted within an individual building. Incentives are provided to encourage variety in roof pitch and design.

3.

Parking. Parking is provided primarily on-site in garages or with surface spaces. On-site parking is accessed from an alley.

4.

Land Use. The full spectrum from a single-family detached home to an eight-unit apartment/condo building is allowed.

5.

Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan. Based primarily on the Walkable Neighborhood Medium Character District in the Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan.

B.
