The design guidelines help

a Transfer of Development Rights Program
in order to direct new development into
the core and to preserve the back
country, which provides diverse wildlife
habitat, unspoiled ridgeline and
mountain vistas, forested hillsides,
opportunities for solitude and outdoor
recreation and a scenic backdrop. For
