B4 Zoning Text Amendment

Bridger Pines has submitted a text amendment for the B4 zone in the Bridger Bowl Base Area.

The amendment would move Recreational Housing and Overnight Accommodations from the zone’s list of Conditional Uses to the list of Permitted Uses. These are essentially Short Term Rental classifications. The primary implication of this change is that a hearing would not be required for issuance of a permit, diminishing the visibility of these proceedings and the opportunity for participation, but also reducing the cost (in time and money) associated with such permits.

The proposed change and supporting documents are in the 4D_Bailey_ZTA_PZ_Complete Staff Report associated with the Feb. 8th hearing agenda.

The BCPOA board has not yet had a chance to discuss this application.
