Homer Glen City Zoning Code
ARTICLE IX
Planned Development
§ 220-901 Purpose and objectives.
A.
Purpose.
(1)
Planned developments, also referred to as planned unit developments (PUD), are unique and substantially different from conventional subdivisions and therefore require administrative processing as "special uses" in this chapter. Planned developments are complex and of a different character than other special uses requiring the establishment of more specific procedures, standards and exceptions in order to guide the recommendations of the Plan Commission and the Village Board to facilitate appropriate development within the Village. The regulations herein shall be in addition to any requirements that are contained in Chapter 107, Article IV, Conservation Subdivisions, of the Village Code.
[Amended 9-27-2017 by Ord. No. 17-060]
(2)
The planned development provisions allow greater design flexibility than is normally permitted by the zoning district regulations, thereby encouraging more rational utilization of the topographic and natural characteristics of the property to produce an economical and stable development. It is intended to provide design freedom by permitting the developer an opportunity to more fully utilize the physical characteristics of the site through changes of lot sizes, yards, height and bulk restrictions and mixing of uses. Through the requirement of a development plan, it is the intent that property under this section will be developed through a unified design, providing contiguity between the various elements, and ultimately leading to a better environment. This section is not intended to be a device for making increased densities more acceptable, or as a means of circumventing the Village's bulk regulations or standards.
(3)
Planned developments are intended to provide for projects incorporating a variety of related and complementary uses which are planned and developed as a unit. Such development may provide for a wide range of development techniques and ownership methods, including cluster developments, condominium ownership of land and buildings, or other ownership techniques. The entire development shall be controlled by means of a planned development ordinance including graphics which establish densities, approximate height and location of buildings and improvements, structure elevations and record the location of natural features of the property in keeping with the land use development policies of the Village.
(4)
Commercial and industrial developments with building area that exceeds 50,000 square feet shall be considered a Planned Development and must be processed in accordance with the Planned Development procedures of this article. Site Plan Review is also required.
[Amended 9-27-2017 by Ord. No. 17-060; 2-8-2023 by Ord. No. 23-003]
B.
Objectives. The following objectives shall be obtained through the use of the planned development procedure:
(1)
To ensure that the future growth and development of the area is in accordance with the adopted Comprehensive Plan of the Village.
(2)
To provide a desirable living environment by preserving and integrating the natural environmental and landscape features of the property.
(3)
To encourage developers to use variety and a more creative approach to development by recognizing and respecting the natural limitations and constraints of the property.
(4)
To encourage an efficient and ecologically sound development through a design process which minimizes development costs and services.
(5)
To encourage the exclusivity and maintenance of usable open space.
(6)
To allow for a variety of housing types to accommodate the life stages and lifestyle choices of a range of persons, by allowing development that would not be possible under the strict application of the other sections of this chapter.
(7)
To preserve natural vegetation, topographic and geologic features, and other natural resources and amenities, and improve air and water quality.
(8)
To facilitate the development and maintenance of public services such as transportation, water, sewage, storm drainage and open space in a cost-effective manner.
(9)
To provide public access to mass transit, bicycle routes and alternative modes of transportation.
(10)
To provide for efficient location of recreation facilities, schools, and other public and private facilities.
(11)
To encourage the introduction of complementary uses, such as residential uses with offices and commercial activities.

Public hearings. The Plan Commission shall hold a public hearing on the application for a special use for a planned development and preliminary plans, giving notice of the time and place not more than 30 days nor less than 15 days before the date of the hearing by publishing a notice thereof at least once in a newspaper published in the Village or, if no newspaper is published therein, then in a newspaper with a general circulation within the Village. All other notification requirements for public hearings shall be met by the applicant.
(b)
Phased planned developments. If the preliminary plan initially submitted shall cover less than all of the planned development, preliminary plans for additional areas of the planned development may be submitted to the Plan Commission within such period of time as shall have been prescribed in the approval of the application for establishment of the planned development; provided, further, that upon request in writing of the developer, the Village Board may, by resolution duly adopted at any meeting of the Village Board, extend the period of time for submission of preliminary plans covering all of the planned development.
(c)
Status of approved preliminary development plan. Approval of a preliminary plan shall not constitute approval of the final plan, nor qualify a plat of the planned development for recording. It shall be deemed to be an expression of approval of the preliminary plan as a guide to preparation of the final plan.
(4)
Plan Commission findings and recommendations.
(a)
Every planned development which is recommended by the Plan Commission shall be accompanied by findings and shall refer to any exhibits containing plans and specifications for the proposed planned development, which shall remain a part of the permanent records of the Plan Commission.
(b)
The Plan Commission shall make its written findings, which may consist of meeting minutes, and shall transmit same together with its recommendations to the Village Board for final action.
(5)
Village Board action. The Village Board, after receipt of the preliminary plan of the planned development and the findings and the written recommendations of the Plan Commission, may deny such planned development or may modify or approve such planned development by ordinance. The Village Board may require such special conditions in the approval of the planned development as it may deem necessary to ensure conformity with the intent of all elements of the Comprehensive Plan and the stated purposes of the planned development:
(a)
Upon approval by the Village Board of the preliminary plan by ordinance, a record shall be prepared including the findings and setting forth the terms of relief and/or variances granted.
(b)
Approval of a planned development by the Village Board shall not constitute approval of the final development plan; rather, it shall be deemed an expression of approval of the layout submitted as a preliminary guide to the preparation of the final development plan or subdivision. The planned development shall therefore be developed substantially in accordance with the preliminary plan and any conditions and exhibits attached thereto. No building permit shall be issued for any building or structure in the planned development unless a final development plan has been approved.
D.
Final development plan.
(1)
Application submittal requirements. The following information shall be required in addition to all preliminary plan information:
(a)
If the planned development constitutes a subdivision, a final subdivision plat shall be submitted. Any such final subdivision plat shall set forth, on the face thereof, suitable easements, restrictions or dedications of permanent open spaces and recreational amenities and all other criteria in form and substance, conforming to the requirements of the Village's Subdivision Ordinance,[2] and all other applicable Village standards and regulations, as the same may be amended and in force from time to time.
(b)
The final version of the final development plan of the planned development shall be filed, indicating the locations of all buildings, all parking and loading spaces, setbacks, block and lot numbers, street names, and any other special structure, facility or feature approved or required by the Village Board.
(c)
The final version of the covenants, if any, by which the applicant proposes to regulate land use and otherwise protect the proposed development.

(f)
A certificate shall be furnished from the County Collector that finds no delinquent taxes are outstanding on the property, and that all special assessments constituting a lien on the whole or any part of the property of the planned development have been paid.
(2)
Final development plan procedural requirements.
(a)
The final development plan shall conform substantially to the preliminary plan, as approved, and if desired by the developer, it may be submitted in stages, with each stage reflecting a portion of the approved preliminary plan which is proposed to be recorded and developed. Submission in stages may occur; provided, however, that such portion conforms to all requirements of these regulations.
(b)
The final development plan or plans shall be submitted by the developer to the Village not later than one year after approval of the preliminary plan or such other additional time as may be established by the ordinance adopting the planned development. This time limit may be extended by the Village on reasonable cause shown.
(3)
Review and approval process.
(a)
Application for final development plan approval shall be filed with the Zoning Officer and be accompanied by 15 copies of the final development plan. The final development plan and supporting data shall be forwarded to the Plan Commission for certification that the final development plan is in conformity with these regulations and in agreement with any approved preliminary plans.

(4)
Resubmittal of final development plan. Any application for a planned development which has been denied wholly or in part by the Village Board shall not be resubmitted for a period of one year from the date of said order of denial, except on the grounds of new evidence or proof of change of conditions found to be valid by the Plan Commission.
§ 220-903 Compliance and amendments.
A.
Compliance. All planned developments shall be developed in strict compliance with the recorded final development plan and supporting data.
B.
Occupancy. No planned development, or any portion thereof, may be occupied until such time as a zoning certificate has been issued by the Zoning Officer certifying that the development, or a stage of the development, if applicable, has been completed in compliance with the final development plan.
C.
Amendments to the final development plan during development. Upon issuance of a special use permit and the necessary building permits, no major changes may be made during or after the development of the final development plan unless the applicant applies for approval of a change to a planned development.
[Amended 9-27-2017 by Ord. No. 17-060]

(2)
The Village Board may approve minor changes in the planned development which do not change the concept or intent of the development without a public hearing or recommendation from the Plan Commission. Minor changes shall be any change not defined as a major change.
§ 220-904 Permitted exceptions.
[Amended 9-27-2017 by Ord. No. 17-060]
B.
The Plan Commission may recommend, and Village Board may authorize, exceptions to the applicable bulk regulations of this chapter within the boundaries of such planned development, including lot area, width, depth, height, and yard setback requirements, and building separation distances, provided that the Plan Commission shall find that:
(1)
Such exception shall be solely for the purpose of promoting an efficient and coordinated site plan, no less beneficial to the residents or occupants of such development, as well as the neighboring property, than would be obtained under the bulk regulations of this chapter for buildings developed on separate zoning lots; and
(2)
Provides amenities above and beyond the minimum requirements, such as outstanding design and architecture, the quantity and quality of open space and landscaping, or other similar features.
§ 220-905 Development standards.
A.
All provisions of the Subdivision and Plat Ordinance shall be adhered to, unless a waiver is granted by the Plan Commission.[1] All residential developments that are subject to the requirements of Chapter 107, Article IV, Conservation Subdivisions, shall also comply with these regulations.
[Amended 9-27-2017 by Ord. No. 17-060]
B.
The required yards along the periphery of the planned development shall be at least equal in width or depth to those of the underlying district.
C.

G.
The planned development shall facilitate safe and continuous pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular movement.
H.
The density normally permitted in a given portion of the total site may be transferred to another portion of the total site in order to preserve ecologically important areas such as floodplains, areas of unstable soils, aquifers, and major vegetation. The density of the planned development is required to precisely correspond with the normal density of the underlying zoning district, and should reflect that district's character through complementary building types and architectural design.
I.
The permitted and special uses in a residential planned development are those that are allowed in the underlying zoning district, as well as support commercial uses that are intended to serve the residents of the development or adjacent subdivisions. Commercial uses, designed and intended to serve the frequent or daily trade or service needs of the immediately surrounding population, are appropriate in planned developments that are 10 acres or more (although smaller planned developments which support commercial uses may be approved by the Plan Commission and Village Board).
J.
The total number of dwelling units to be built in a residential subdivision shall not exceed the number that could be developed on the same acreage as a standard subdivision with the underlying district's minimum lot size and setback requirements strictly enforced. The base density permitted shall be determined upon submission of a plan prepared by the developer, which plan shall comply with the strict requirements of the district in which it is located and the Village Subdivision Ordinance.[2]
K.
Additional density.
(1)
To encourage excellence and innovation in design, the Village Board may approve that the permitted density in a planned residential subdivision may be higher than that allowed in Subsection J above if it qualifies for density increases for the provision incentives listed herein.
