The purpose of the planned community zone district is to encourage, preserve and improve the health, safety and general welfare of the people of the city by encouraging the use of contemporary land planning principles and coordinated community design. The planned community zone district is created in recognition of the economic and cultural advantages that will accrue to the residents of an integrated, planned community development of sufficient size to provide related areas for various housing types, retail and service activities, recreation, schools and public facilities, and other uses of land. This district is designed for use where the area comprising such development project is under single ownership or control at the time of its classification as this district.

(Code 1977, § 17.72.010; Ord. No. 806-1983, § 1)
