The following classifications of Planned Development Districts (PDD) are hereby established:

The above-listed classifications may be considered on a floating zone basis, such that the uses of the planned development are permitted in place of the uses of the underlying zoning district(s) unless otherwise specified. The restrictions, controls and incentives of the relevant planned development classification shall apply to the Planned Development District to the exclusion of the underlying zoning classification.

No earth work, land clearing, construction or development shall take place on any property in a Planned Development District except in accordance with the subdivision and/or site plan approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission in accordance with this article and the procedures and standards for site plan approval set forth in this article.

In cases in which a proposed project also involves the subdivision of land, no development may proceed until the Planning and Zoning Commission has granted final subdivision approval in accordance with the standards and procedures of this chapter and Chapter 242, Subdivision of Land.

Unless restricted otherwise herein, minimum yard setbacks, allowable lot coverage, maximum height or other dimensional requirements for any of the structures devoted to uses listed in this article shall be set by the Planning and Zoning Commission and delineated on the approved plan rather than determined by any other provisions of this chapter, but shall in no event be less restrictive than those dimensions set forth on the preliminary site plan submitted in accordance with § 270-106 of this chapter, and upon which the Town Board placed reliance in approving the planned development amendment.

On-site parking and access requirements shall be determined by the Planning and Zoning Commission based upon the off-street parking requirements in this chapter and reasonable planning standards. Parking and access requirements shall not be less than those shown on the preliminary site plan unless the Town Board shall, by resolution, consent to any such reduction.

Common property in a Planned Development District is a parcel or parcels of land, together with the improvements thereon, the use and enjoyment of which are shared by the owner and the occupants of the individual building sites or the public in general. Where common property exists, the ownership of such property shall be either public or private. Where such property exists in private ownership, the applicant must address the issue of ownership and maintenance of such permanent open space lands. The Town Board may establish such conditions on ownership and maintenance, as it deems necessary, to assure the preservation of such lands for their intended purpose. A percentage of the acreage of any Planned Development District shall include land for recreational purposes and/or preserved as natural open space. Such areas shall encompass land having meaningful ecological, aesthetic and recreational characteristics, with access, shape, dimensions, location, topography and nature and extent of improvements suitable in the opinion of the Town Board for the intended purposes. Minimum percentages of common property shall be afforded each Planned Development District classification as follows:

A Planned Development District may be authorized where the Town Board finds that the development will be beneficial, compatible and harmonious with the surrounding land uses and not have a significant impact upon the environment. The siting of a Planned Development District shall also be consistent with the purpose of this chapter and the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.

Residential Planned Development District (RPD). The RPD is predominantly intended to encourage flexible residential development with provisions for recreation, community uses, services and activities normally accessory to residential use, while maximizing the preservation of natural vegetation and character (e.g., existing contours). Clustering, open space preservation, and the most efficient utilization of transportation systems, utilities and public services are intended to be achieved by the RPD. The intent is to support creative and desirable private residential development by providing incentives and flexibility, which encourage the use of innovative planning and design techniques.

Mixed Use Planned Development District (MUPD). The Mixed Use Planned Development District (MUPD) is intended to provide a flexible mixture of usage among residential, commercial services and institutional uses while maximizing the preservation of natural vegetation and character (e.g., existing contours). The commercial uses provided in this district should provide convenient services to the residential uses therein. Clustering, open space preservation, elimination of sprawling complexes and developments, and the most efficient utilization of transportation systems, utilities and public services are intended to be achieved by the MUPD.

Commercial Planned Development District (CPD). Commercial Planned Development Districts (CPD) are intended to consist primarily of commercial uses, although residential uses are permitted. Clustering of development, elimination of sprawl, the efficient and cost-effective use of public utilities, services and transportation systems, and the preservation of open space and natural character (e.g., existing contours) are all intended to be achieved.

Recreation/Tourism Planned Development District (RTPD). The Recreation/Tourism Planned Development District is intended to encourage the development of a centralized area of recreational, cultural, entertainment and tourism facilities.

Waterfront Planned Development District (WPD). The Waterfront Planned Development District is designed to provide flexible residential and/or commercial development with predominantly water-dependent or water-enhanced uses, while maximizing the preservation of natural vegetation and character (e.g., existing contours). Clustering, open space preservation, water access and the most efficient utilization of the waterfront, transportation systems, utilities and public services are intended to be achieved by the WPD. The intent is to support creative, desirable and coordinated development by providing incentives and flexibility, which encourage the use of innovative planning and design techniques.

Review by the Glenville Environmental Conservation Commission (Type I SEQR actions only). If the proposed Planned Development District qualifies as a Type I SEQR action, the Glenville Environmental Conservation Commission shall review the preliminary development plan and make a SEQR recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Commission as to whether the proposal will have a significant potential adverse environmental impact.

Review by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The Planning and Zoning Commission shall review the preliminary development plan with the applicant. After the application has been duly reviewed, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall make a written finding of fact and shall submit same, together with recommendations, to the Town Board.

Survey showing existing features of the property, including contours, buildings, structures, large trees, street utilities, rights-of-way and land use.

Vicinity map showing property lines and land use within 1,000 feet of the site, drawn to a scale of one inch equals 500 feet or larger.

Proposed site plan showing building locations, land use, open space, traffic circulation, parking, pedestrian walks, landscaping and utilities.

Proposed construction sequence for buildings, parking, utilities and landscaping.

Preliminary architectural drawings for buildings, elevations, and summary of building type, floor area, number of stories and material.

Preliminary engineering plans, including street improvements, drainage systems and utilities.

Any additional maps, data or background information requested by the Economic Development and Planning Department, Planning and Zoning Commission or Town Board.

Minor changes. Inconsequential changes in location, siting, and height of buildings and structures may be authorized by the Planning and Zoning Commission if required by engineering or other unforeseen circumstances.

Other changes. Any amendments to the use of property, any rearrangement of lots, blocks and building tracts, any changes in common open spaces, and all other changes to the final site plan must be approved by the Town Board and Planning and Zoning Commission. No amendments may be made to the approved final plan unless they are shown to be required by changes in conditions that have occurred since the final plan was approved or by changes in the development policy of the Town.
