ARTICLE XXII
PUD Planned Unit Development District
§ 280-144 Intent.
[Added 3-14-2016 by L.L. No. 1-2016[1]]
It is the intent of the PUD (Planned Unit Development District) to provide greater flexibility and opportunity for the development of mixed uses in specific areas of the Town. Innovative design and creative mixes of uses are encouraged to offer the potential for a sustainable development that can provide economic opportunities, residential housing and jobs and service bases consistent with the objectives of the Hamburg Comprehensive Plan. There are no prescribed combinations of uses or specific quantities of elements that are required. It will require the applicant to demonstrate to the Town of Hamburg how their proposed project meets the objectives of the Hamburg Comprehensive Plan and the needs of the citizens and businesses of the community without harming the character of the area.

[Added 3-14-2016 by L.L. No. 1-2016]
Creation of a PUD shall follow the same procedures and processes for a rezoning of a site as outlined in Article XLVIII.
The rezoning application must include a concept/development plan which, if approved, will represent the zoning of the site. Any conditions placed on the rezoning shall also be incorporated into the PUD plan and enforced in any future approvals by the Planning Board.
Any amendments to an approved PUD shall follow the same procedures and processes as a new PUD zoning designation.
Upon approval of the PUD zoning designation by the Town Board, the project will need to proceed to site plan and, if necessary, subdivision approvals with the Town Planning Board, prior to any construction or building permits being issued.
