CHAPTER 9

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENTS

10-9-10-1: Minor Amendments To Approved Final PUD Plans

10-9-11: Conditions Of Development
10-9-12: Conditions And Guarantees

10-9-1: PURPOSE:

The unique and substantially different character of planned unit developments requires their administrative processing as a "special use" in this title. Planned unit developments are more complex and of a different character than other special uses, requiring the establishment herein of specific and additional procedures, standards and exceptions to govern the recommendations of the Village Board. The purpose of the planned unit development is to encourage and allow more creative and imaginative design for land developments than is possible under conventional district zoning regulations. The planned unit development also provides for more efficient use of the land, and thus results in more economical land development. Preservation of natural site qualities, better amenities, more open space, and a higher quality project are the normal results of the planned unit development process.
The following objectives may be obtained through the use of the planned unit development procedure:
   A.   To permit a greater choice in types of environment available to the public by allowing a development that would not be possible under the strict application of the other sections of this title.
   B.   To promote a creative approach to the use of land and related physical facilities that results in better design and development, with the inclusion of aesthetic amenities.
   C.   To combine and coordinate architectural styles, landscape design, building forms and building relationships with a possible mixing of different uses in an innovative design.
   D.   To enhance the appearance of neighborhoods through the provision of underground utilities, and the preservation of natural vegetation, topographic and geological features and environmentally appropriate features.
   E.   To provide for the prevention and/or control of soil erosion, surface flooding, and the preservation of subsurface water.
   F.   To create a method for the preservation of common open space for the continuous use and enjoyment of the residents and users of the development.
   G.   To provide for more usable and suitably located recreational facilities, schools and other public and private facilities.
   H.   To promote the more efficient use of the land resulting in more economic networks of utilities, circulation and other facilities.
   I.   To encourage land use which promotes the public health, safety, comfort, morals and welfare.
   J.   To create a method for the permanent preservation of architectural, natural and/or historic landmarks. (Ord. 78-40, 5-16-1978)

10-9-2: LOCATION:

Planned unit developments may be located in any zoning district or combination of zoning districts. (Ord. 78-40, 5-16-1978)

10-9-3: MINIMUM AREA:

A minimum site of ten (10) acres shall be required for all residential planned unit developments. A minimum of one acre shall be required for all nonresidential planned unit developments. The site must be under single ownership or unified control to ensure orderly development and maintenance. (Ord. 86-30, 5-20-1986)

10-9-4: USES ALLOWED:

   A.   The uses which may be permitted under a planned unit development include those listed as permitted uses or special uses in the underlying district(s). (Ord. 78-40, 5-16-1978)
   B.   In residential districts attached dwelling units may be permitted, which may include townhouses, row houses, garden apartments, duplexes or multiple-story apartments. Condominium, cooperative, individual, governmental or any other type of ownership may be permitted. (Ord. 83-75, 12-4-1983)
   C.   The following are permitted uses only within PD Planned Development Districts designated solely for industrial use and PUDs located entirely within an industrially zoned area, subject to the special conditions set forth in subsection 10-14-5D of this Title:
Adult bookstores.
Adult cabarets.
Adult entertainment establishments.
Adult mini motion picture theaters.
Adult motion picture theaters. (Ord. 96-4, 2-6-1996)

10-9-5: DENSITY:

The density of a planned unit development in floor area ratio and in dwelling units for residential uses shall not exceed the amount or number allowed under the requirements of the underlying zoning district. If the development is in more than one zoning district, the floor area ratio and the number of allowable dwelling units must be separately calculated for each portion of the development that is in a separate zoning district, and must then be combined to determine the total floor area ratio and number of dwelling units allowable. (Ord. 78-40, 5-16-1978)
Except in the SR-6 District, density bonuses may be granted for the presence of exceptional design features in a planned unit development. The eligible design features are listed below and their bonuses may be added together if more than one is present. However, the maximum permitted bonus shall be a composite of thirty three percent (33%) increase of the density and floor area ratio allowed under the requirements of the underlying zoning district(s).
   A.   Community Facilities: When an appropriate and adequate year- round community facility, such as a swimming pool, tennis courts, or gymnasium/health club, is constructed and made available without an admission charge to the residents of the development, an increase of up to ten percent (10%) in the base residential density may be granted.
   B.   Public Facilities: When an appropriate and adequate public facility, such as a library; community center, including health and day care facilities; school or fire station; is constructed in a manner acceptable to the suitable operating agency, and the land and structure is dedicated to the public, an increase of up to twenty percent (20%) in the base residential density may be granted. Where only the land for such a facility is dedicated to the public, an increase of up to ten percent (10%) in the base residential density may be granted.
   C.   Covered Or Underground Parking: Where the required parking spaces are provided in covered, multi-level parking structures, or underground, an increase in density or intensity may be granted for each increment of covered parking equal to twenty five percent (25%) of the total parking requirement. Where the bonus is granted in residential density, said increase may equal up to ten percent (10%) of the base residential density for each such increment. Where the bonus is granted in nonresidential use intensity, said increase may equal up to 0.10 FAR for each such increment.
   D.   Excellence In Site Planning: Where the project site plan exhibits exceptional adherence to the purposes and objectives of this Chapter, an increase of ten percent (10%) of the base residential density may be granted. Where the bonus is granted in nonresidential use intensity, said increase may equal up to 0.20 FAR. In addition to the standards found in Section 10-9-8 of this Chapter, the following standards shall be used to measure site plans for excellence:
      1.   The natural topographic and landscape features of the site shall be incorporated into the development wherever possible.
      2.   The site shall not be so overcrowded as to cause unbalanced relationships of buildings to open space. Additional landscaped areas beyond the minimum required shall be encouraged.
      3.   Open space areas shall not be unduly isolated from one another by unrelated vehicle obstructions such as buildings and paved vehicular areas, but rather, shall be linked by open space corridors of reasonable width.
      4.   Buildings shall be sited in an orderly nonrandom fashion in sympathy with the natural features of the site. Excessively long unbroken building facades shall be avoided.
      5.   Habitable spaces shall be oriented with due regard to sun, prevailing wind, desirable vistas and nearby land uses.
      6.   The floor plans of residential units shall have proper orientation, access and view to adjacent private and public open space.
      7.   The intrusion of automobiles into the privacy of residential environments shall be minimized while maintaining the convenience of access between the units and parking areas.
   E.   Adjacent Permanent Open Space: Where the development is adjacent directly to permanently reserved open areas of green space in contiguous tracts exceeding five hundred (500) aggregate acres, an increase up to twenty percent (20%) of the base residential density may be granted.
The density bonuses granted herein are discretionary on the part of the Village. Bonuses less than the maximum for the design features specified above may be granted. Although not limited by these factors, if the Village finds that any of the following conditions are likely to be created by an increase of density as permitted above, it may either deny any application for such increase, or limit the same by an amount sufficient to avoid the creation of any such conditions:
Inconvenient or unsafe access to the development.
Excessive traffic in streets adjoining the development.
An excessive burden imposed upon parks, recreational areas, schools, or other public facilities which serve or are proposed to serve the development. (Ord. 83-75, 12-14-1983)

10-9-6: MODIFICATIONS:

   A.   Except as noted below, the yard, lot area, lot width, lot shape, lot coverage, height and dwelling size requirements and the limits on combinations of principal structures and uses may be modified under a Planned Unit Development.
      1.   The required yards along the periphery of the Planned Unit Development shall be at least equal in width or depth to those of the directly adjacent zoning district(s), not counting districts removed by the presence of an intervening publicly dedicated street right-of-way.
      2.   Buildings of more than twenty-four feet (24') in height shall provide a setback from any property line of not less than the height of such buildings.
   B.   Requirements regarding any improvements covered under the Bartlett Subdivision Ordinance, including sidewalks, streets, curbs, gutters, sanitary sewers, storm sewers, water, lighting, landscaping, parking and retention/detention facilities shall be modified only as specifically provided for in the special use ordinance authorizing the Planned Unit Development. Private streets shall not be allowed under any circumstances.
   C.   Modifications in the requirements for the number of parking spaces, density, landscaped open space and performance standards shall not be allowed.

10-9-7: PROCEDURES:

A Planned Unit Development shall be reviewed as a special use in accordance with the procedures and standards of this Section, and shall be processed in three stages as set forth below.

If the Final Development Plan is held to be not in conformance with the Preliminary Site Plan or the Final Development Plan requirements, the Village Board shall inform the applicant of the specific areas found deficient. The applicant may request from the Village Board an extension of time to bring the Final Development Plan into conformance and to complete the requirements, or may request a new public hearing under the procedures established for approval of a Preliminary Site Plan. (Ord. 78-40, 5-16-1978; amd. Ord. 88-42, 5-17-1988; Ord. 2022-17, 3-15-2022)

10-9-8: STANDARDS:

Modifications in conventional zoning and subdivision regulations are privileges and will be considered by the Village Board only in direct response
to the accrual of tangible benefits from the Planned Unit Development to the Village or the neighborhood in which it would be located. These benefits shall be in the form of exceptional amenities, outstanding environmental, landscape, architectural or site design, or the conservation of special man-made or natural features of the site. In reviewing an application for a Planned Unit Development the Village Board shall be required to make certain findings based on the standards below:
   A.   Required Findings: No application for a Planned Unit Development shall be approved unless all of the following findings are made about the proposal:
      1.   Comprehensive Plan. It shall conform with the Comprehensive Plan and the general planning policies and precedents of the Village, particularly with reference to the following:
         a.   Land use policies;
         b.   Land use intensity;
         c.   Housing goals;
         d.   Traffic impact and parking;
         e.   Impact on schools, public utilities and facilities;
         f.   The character of the Village and the specific neighborhood; and
         g.   The conservation and enhancement of the tax base and economic well-being of the Village.
      2.   Permitted Uses. Each of the proposed uses is a permitted or special use in the district or districts in which the Planned Unit Development would be located.
      3.   Public Welfare. It shall be so designed, located and proposed to be operated and maintain ed that the public health, safety and welfare will not be endangered or detrimentally affected.
      4.   Impact on Other Property. It shall not substantially lessen or impede the suitability for permitted use and development of, or be injurious to the use and enjoyment of, or substantially diminish or impair the value of, or be incompatible with, other property in the immediate vicinity.
      5.   Impact on Public Facilities and Resources. The plan shall include impact donations in accordance with Ordinance 83-7.
      6.   Support Facilities. It shall have or make provision for adequate utilities, drainage and other necessary facilities.
      7.   Parking and Traffic. It shall have or make adequate provision for parking and ingress and egress and be so designed as to minimize traffic congestion and hazards in the public streets.
      8.   Adequate Buffering. It shall have adequate site area, which area may be greater than the minimum in the district in which the proposed site is located, and other buffering features to protect uses within the development and on surrounding properties.
      9.   Performance. There shall be reasonable assurance that, if authorized, it will be completed according to schedule and adequately maintained.
   B.   Modification Standards: In addition to the findings required above, the following standards shall be utilized by the Village in considering applications for modifications of the conventional zoning and subdivision regulations for a Planned Unit Development. These standards shall not be regarded as inflexible, but shall be used as a framework by the Village to test the quality of the amenities, design and desirability of the proposal.
      1.   Integrated Design. A Planned Unit Development shall be laid out and developed as a unit in accordance with an integrated overall design. This design shall provide for safe, efficient, convenient and harmonious grouping of structures, uses and facilities, and for appropriate relation of space inside and outside buildings to intended uses and structural features.
      2.   Beneficial Common Open Space. Any common open space in the development shall be integrated into the overall design. Such spaces shall have a direct functional or visual relationship to the main buildings and not be of isolated or leftover character. the following would not be considered usable common open space:
         a.   Areas reserved for the exclusive use or benefit of an individual tenant or owner.
         b.   Dedicated streets, alleys and other public rights-of-way.
         c.   Vehicular drives, parking, loading and storage areas.
         d.   Irregular or unusable narrow strips of land less than fifteen feet (15') wide.
      3.   Location of Higher Buildings. Higher buildings shall be located within the site plan in such a way as to dissipate any adverse impact on adjoining lower buildings within the development or on surrounding properties, and shall not invade the privacy of occupants of such lower buildings.
      4.   Functional and Mechanical Features. Exposed storage areas, trash and garbage retainers, exposed machinery installations, service areas, truck loading areas, utility buildings and structures, and similar accessory areas and structures shall be accounted for in the design of the project and made as unobtrusive as possible. They shall be subject to such setbacks, special planting or other screening methods as shall reasonably be required to prevent their being in congruous with the existing or contemplated environment and the surrounding properties.
      5.   Visual and Acoustical Privacy. The development shall provide reasonable visual, and acoustical privacy for each dwelling unit. Fences, insulations, walks, barriers and landscaping shall be used as appropriate for the protection and aesthetic enhancement of property and the privacy of its occupants, screening of objectionable view or uses, and reduction of noises.
      6.   Ownership Plan: The development may consist of conventionally subdivided lots to be sold, unsubdivided single ownership, separate condominium ownership of structures, or other ownership methods, provided that the ownership plan ensures the continued maintenance of the properties and of the various amenities and conservation and design features of the Planned Unit Development as a whole.
      7.   Energy Efficient Design: A Planned Unit Development shall be designed with consideration given to various methods of site design and building location, architectural design of individual structures, and landscaping design capable of reducing energy consumption within the development. Design features or facilities which utilize solar or wind energy, or which effectively reduce consumption or use of water, motor vehicles, non-renewable energy sources or sewage treatment facilities will be encouraged to the extent to which they conform with the other objectives of this Title.
      8.   Landscape Conservation and Visual Enhancement: The landscape in a Planned Unit Development shall be conserved and enhanced, insofar as practical, by minimizing tree and soil removal, and the conservation of special landscape features such as streams, ponds, groves and land forms. The addition or use of trees, shrubs, flowers, fountains, ponds, special paving materials, benches and seating areas, special lighting fixtures and other amenities will be encouraged to the extent of their appropriateness and usefulness to the development and the likelihood of their continued maintenance.
      9.   Drives, Parking and Circulation. Principal vehicular access shall be from major streets, and access points shall be designed to encourage smooth traffic flow with controlled turning movements and minimum hazards to vehicular or pedestrian traffic. With respect to vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives and parking, special attention shall be given to location and number of access points to the public streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior circulation, separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, adequate provision for service by emergency vehicles, and arrangement of parking areas that are safe and convenient, and insofar as practicable, do not detract from the design of proposed buildings and structures and the neighboring properties.
      10.   Relationship to Public Facilities and Utilities. The development shall be so designed as to have access to such facilities and utilities in the same degree as would development under existing zoning, and shall be so located, designed, and scaled that access for public services is equivalent to, and net costs for such services is not greater than, access and net costs for public services for development as permitted under existing zoning.
      11.   Surface Water Drainage. Special attention shall be given to proper site surface drainage so that removal of surface waters will not adversely affect neighboring properties or the public storm drainage system. Surface water in all paved areas shall be collected at intervals so that it will not obstruct the flow of vehicular or pedestrian traffic.

(Ord. 78-40, 5-16-1978; amd. Ord. 2017-136, 10-17-2017; Ord. 2022-17, 3-15-2022)

10-9-10-1: MINOR AMENDMENTS TO APPROVED FINAL PUD PLANS:

A minor amendment (as determined by the Zoning Administrator) to an approved final PUD plan may be submitted to the Building Department as part of a building permit application if no rezoning, special use(s) and/or variation(s) is/are requested, and/or any such amendment or required modification to an approved final PUD plan is of such size and scope that it would not require rezoning, a special use permit or variation if the subject property fell within a traditional zoning classification, or varies less than ten percent (10%) from the dimensions on the approved final site plan. (Ord. 2017-136, 10-17-2017)

10-9-11: CONDITIONS OF DEVELOPMENT:

After the approval of the final PUD plan, the use of land and construction, modification or alteration of any buildings or structures within the planned unit development will be governed by the approved final PUD plan and all applicable Village ordinances not specifically waived in the ordinance granting a special use for the planned unit development. In addition, the following conditions apply to the construction of a planned unit development:
   A.   Construction in accordance with the final PUD plan shall commence within one year. Failure to commence within that period shall, unless an extension has been granted by the Board of Trustees according to subsection B of this section, automatically render null and void the final plan approval of the planned unit development plan, all prior plan approvals upon which final plan approval depends, including all permits based on such approvals, and the special use permit for the planned unit development. (Ord. 78-40, 5-16-1978; amd. Ord. 2017-136, 10-17-2017)
   B.   The Village Board may extend the time limit for the commencement of construction as follows:
      1.   If a delay, or anticipated delay, is caused by governmental action without fault on the part of the developer an extension may be granted for a period not longer than the period of the governmental delay.
      2.   For good cause shown, an extension may be granted for such periods of time as the Village Board deems appropriate but not exceeding twelve (12) months exclusive of extensions authorized under subsection B1 of this section.
   C.   No permit shall be issued for any construction in a planned unit development nor shall any use of the properties commence until the developer posts with the Village a sum in cash, negotiable securities, surety bond, or irrevocable letter of credit running to the Village in an amount sufficient to cover the full cost, including engineering and inspection fees and costs, plus ten percent (10%) of such total, to ensure the satisfactory installation of all streets, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, sanitary sewers, storm sewers, water, lighting, landscaping, parking, retention/detention areas, and all other public improvements.
