Goal 1.5: Maintain opportunities for Ranch Estate lifestyles within the Las Vegas Valley

Support the protection of existing Rural Neighborhood Preservation (RNP) areas as defined by NRS §278.

Adopt and implement standards to protect the established character and lifestyles associated with RNP areas and minimize future conflicts with higher intensity development planned on sites that are adjacent to RNP areas, or infill development within a RNP. Incorporate a range of possible approaches, such as transitioning densities with larger lots, clustering higher intensity housing units away from the shared edge of the RNP, requiring similar building heights and orientations, or a combination of these and other appropriate strategies.

Continue to support activities and uses related to the raising and keeping of animals for personal enjoyment or food production in RNP areas in accordance with the Unified Development Code (Title 30).
