The
Breckenridge Vision Plan outlines specific
action steps that reflect the
community’s values and vision. The design guidelines help preserve the character of the
Breckenridge real estate market and the
historic district. Breckenridge adopted 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 more information on
