7 Planned Residential Development PRD Overlay Zone
The purpose of the Planned Residential Development (PRD) overlay zone is to encourage creative and efficient utilization of land by providing greater flexibility in the placement of buildings on the land, the consolidation of open spaces, and the clustering dwelling units. These provisions are intended to create more attractive and desirable design of residential neighborhoods and housing projects in Clinton City.
A PRD is a master planned, architecturally-designed development in which the regulations of the underlying zone, in which the development is situated, may be modified to allow flexibility and creativity in site and building design and location, in accordance with an approved PRD plan and requirements of this Chapter
| Zoning District | Base Density | Potential Density with 50% Bonus |
| R-M | 8 units per acre | 12 units per acre |
| Zoning District | Base Density | Base Open Space |
| R-M | 8 to 12 units/acre | 7.50%* |
| Recreation and Site Amenities | Maximum fifty percent (50%) Bonus |
| Exterior Building Materials | Maximum twenty percent (20%) Bonus |
| Fencing | Maximum ten percent (10%) Bonus |
| Open Space (above the minimum base requirement) | Maximum twenty percent (20%) Bonus |
A PRD is reviewed in a three-step process - conceptual plan review and overlay zoning, preliminary plan review, and final plan review.
A homeowner's association (HOA) shall be established for every PRD. The HOA shall be established for the general maintenance, upkeep and enforcement of those areas held in common ownership.
