40 - PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT PUD DISTRICT3
Editor's note— Ord. No. 2025-5, § 3, adopted Dec. 2, 2025, repealed the former Ch. 17.40, §§ 17.40.010—17.40.130, and enacted a new Ch. 17.40 as set out herein. The former Ch. 17.40 pertained to similar subject matter and derived from prior code § 17.09.080; prior code § 17.17.010; prior code § 17.17.120; and Ord. No. 99-8 § 1 (part).
The Planned Unit Development (PUD) district is created pursuant to C.R.S. § 24-67-101 et seq., the Planned Unit Development Act of 1972.
(Ord. No. 2025-5, § 3, 12-2-25)
The purpose of the Planned Unit Development (PUD) district is to promote and improve the health, safety, and general welfare of the residents of the city by allowing the negotiation of a specialized zoning district allowing innovative patterns of development. This district is intended to be used only when no other base or overlay district in this title, and no combination of those districts, can be used to approve a large new development that provides substantial additional benefits to the city that would not otherwise be required by this title. PUD zoning is not intended to be used to approve variations from the standards and criteria in this chapter that would otherwise apply to the proposed development unless significant additional benefits to the city are provided.
(Ord. No. 2025-5, § 3, 12-2-25)
The requirements of a PUD are established in the PUD plan as detailed in Chapter 17.92.
