A.

The planned unit development district (PUD) is intended to accommodate areas of integrated mixed land uses, innovative lot sizes and physical design and strong commitments to commonly held open space. It is intended that PUDs will be developed as integrated projects with the lot sizes and configurations, street layout and design standards, and building construction and placement all done to the standards of a master plan prepared by the developer. This plan would be subject to review and approval by the plan commission. Recommendations for alterations of the plan both before and after plan commission approval would be worked out with the developer or property owners' association.

B.

1.

The PUD would be an overlay of the zone most appropriate to the predominant use proposed for the area under consideration; all regulations of the zone must be met except as varied under the planned district standards.

2.

The planned district designation is to be applied for as a conditional use within the appropriate zone. If the current zoning of area differs from the predominant use proposed, the developer must apply for rezoning to the appropriate zone simultaneously with the request for the PUD overlay.

C.

The PUD overlay district allows the developer a mixture of uses and a slightly higher density than would normally be allowed in a given zone, and may allow a land use in an area which would otherwise be deemed unsuitable. In exchange for this opportunity, the village retains right of site plan review and refusal based upon: adequacy and placement of open spaces, landscaping, buffering, transportation, lighting, noise and similar considerations.

D.

Lot ownership within the PUD could be held by a single owner as an apartment/retail complex; by a nonprofit corporation as a residents association; or by a combination of private single-family/commercial lots and condominium buildings, and commonly held open spaces.

E.

The ownership of streets, public utilities and improved and unimproved open space is negotiable, sometimes remaining with the developer or owners association and sometimes in all or in part being accepted by the village.

(Ord. 2006-02 (part); Ord. 126 § 1 (part), 1996: prior code § 13-1-53(a))

A.

Permitted Uses.

1.

Residential uses of various types and densities, mixed and located within the development based on the project's master plan.

2.

Commercial retail and office uses mixed and located singly or in conjunction with other uses in accordance with the master plan.

3.

Industrial uses, generally considered to be "light" industry, or assembly operations to be integrated into the overall project in accordance with the master plan.

4.

Recreational uses, which could include, but not limited to, such indoor recreational uses as community halls, bowling alleys, gymnasiums or fitness centers, indoor swimming pools and theaters. Outdoor recreational facilities, such as swimming pools, tennis courts, hard-surfaced play courts, golf courses, archery ranges, playground equipment, landscaped and turf-covered open areas and natural areas, such as wooded hillsides, meadows, marshes and ponds.

5.

Agricultural uses, including the keeping of livestock, could be permitted, provided such use is an integrated part of the project's master plan. Presumably, the area designated for agricultural use at the time of the PUDs initial development would be intended for long-range future development to a more intensive use. This long-range intention for agricultural lands should be part of the master plan presented to the plan commission for approval.

B.

Accessory Uses. All buildings and uses normally considered accessory to the approved principal uses. This includes structures necessary to provide the PUD with public utilities, such as pump houses, lift stations, transformer banks, etc.

C.

Conditional Uses. All uses, including those listed previously as permitted are actually conditional based upon the plan commission's approval of the project master plan. All intended uses must be included in the master plan by the developer. Home occupations as defined in this title will not be considered a use by right within housing units within the PUD.

D.

Prohibited Uses. All uses not presented in the approved master plan.

(Ord. 126 § 1 (part), 1996: prior code § 13-1-53(b)—(e))

A.

Minimum Area. The minimum size for any single planned unit development will be at the discretion of the plan commission.

B.

Lot Size. Size requirements listed for residential density and nonresidential intensity may be reduced within a planned unit development, provided such lots are not reduced below fifty (50) percent of the size permitted in other appropriate districts.

C.

Open Space. For all PUDs usable open space encompassing a minimum of thirty (30) percent of the total PUD area shall be provided. Usable open space shall be defined as lands used for intensive resident recreational use, such as picnicking, hiking, playgrounds, ball fields, etc. Wetlands and steep rock hillsides are not considered as usable open space where general recreation activities can occur. Usable open space shall also be in usable shapes and sizes to permit maintenance and policing and will not just be limited to odd corners and street islands left over after development is completed. Ultimate ownership and maintenance of the common open spaces shall be negotiable between the village, the developer and the property owners within the development.

D.

Minimum Yards.

1.

Front. Frontage width may be reduced to fifty (50) percent of the frontage that would be required for the same use in the appropriate conventional zoning district. Frontage depth shall permit residential buildings to be constructed at the front lot line, except no building shall be closer than twenty (20) feet from the curb or edge of pavement from a local internal PUD street. Regular setbacks shall apply to streets designated by the village or state as collectors or arterials.

2.

Rear. Buildings may be permitted at the rear lot line in accordance with the master plan.

3.

Side. Buildings may be permitted at the side lot line in accordance with the master plan.

E.

Minimum Dwelling Unit Size. One thousand (1,000) square feet.

F.

Building Height. Building heights will be negotiated as part of the master plan approval process.

G.

Maximum Lot Coverage. No more than seventy (70) percent.

H.

Drainage and Erosion Control. The provisions of this code pertaining to erosion control shall apply. The developer shall be responsible for the initial installation to village standards of all storm drainage structures and water runoff retention structures within the limits of the PUD.

I.

Percent Slope. All slope modifications shall be indicated on the master plan and shall be subject to negotiation and approval by the plan commission.

J.

Street Standards. Internal streets and access roads within the PUD shall be negotiated as part of the master plan approval process. It is suggested by this chapter that certain width and curve standards that might otherwise be demanded in a conventional plat might be negotiated if an integrated master plan shows certain roads will never serve a function other than local residential access.

K.

Relationship to Other Uses. The layout of any PUD, especially those that will have mixed land uses, such as single-family and high density multifamily or commercial and recreational uses, will be sensitive to the existing or potential land uses in conventional zoning districts adjacent to the PUD. Setback requirements for all conventional zoning districts uses shall apply for all uses located at the perimeter of the PUD.

(Ord. 2006-02 (part); Ord. 126 § 1 (part), 1996: prior code § 13-1-53(f)—(p))

A.

The PUD district in this chapter will be a "floating" district, not site specific until such time as a developer proposes a PUD at a certain site. At that time after master plan review, the plan commission can recommend the necessary area as a PUD and the village board, as with all zoning district designations, would act on the request. A checklist of items to require of the developer and review by the plan commission and village board is shown below.

B.

Any developer who desires to initiate a planned unit development project shall submit to the zoning administrator an application for the processing of such project. The application shall be accompanied by:

1.

Location map showing the project in relation to the surrounding area.

2.

Site plan showing and describing:

a.

Property lines and easements with dimensions and area;

b.

Location, size, spacing, setbacks and dimensions of all existing and proposed buildings, structures, improvements and utilities;

c.

The building elevations, sections and floor plan and site sections to clearly define the character of the project;

d.

Topographic information showing existing features and conditions and proposed grading;

e.

Landscaping plans showing open spaces, planting, existing and proposed trees and recreational area and facilities;

f.

Existing streets showing access to the project, proposed roads and parking layout with dimensions;

g.

Shoreline, shoreline setback lines, stream and other setback lines.

3.

A timetable and cost estimates indicating when construction will begin, the planned completion date of each phase of the development and the various costs involved with each phase along with the source of funding to be utilized to pay for the development. In addition, performance or construction bond quotes from an insurance company or other source shall be provided for each phase of the project or for the entire project.

4.

Information regarding land use designations, surrounding land uses, project design team, type, size, number and estimated selling price of units and density calculations.

5.

Information regarding the following:

a.

The types and numbers of uses to be conducted within the development;

b.

The nature and extent of the common open space in the project, the reliability of the proposals for maintenance and conservation of the common open space and the adequacy of the amount and function of the open space m terms of the densities and dwelling types proposed in the plan;

c.

The manner in which such plan does make adequate provision for public services, provide adequate control over vehicular traffic and further the amenities of light and air, recreation and visual enjoyment;

d.

The relationship, beneficial or adverse, of the proposed development upon the physical environment and the neighborhood in which it is proposed to be established;
