ARTICLE VI
Planned Unit Development Overlay District
§ 430-49 Purpose.
[Amended by Ord. No. 728-91]
The Planned Unit Development Overlay District (hereinafter referred to as "PUD") is established to provide a voluntary regulatory framework designed to encourage and promote improved environmental and aesthetic design in the City by allowing for greater freedom, imagination and flexibility in the development of land while ensuring substantial compliance to the basic intent of this chapter and the Comprehensive Plan for community development. A PUD provides for the superimposing of an approved plan for development on property already designated as a basic zoning district identified in this chapter. PUD districts are approved specifically for the development being proposed. If the development is not implemented within 24 months of approval of the specific implementation plan, the property shall revert to its original zoning. The amount of implementation progress required to prevent reversion to the original zoning shall be included as part of the specific implementation plan approval. Some specific purposes of developments in the PUD are:
A.
Residential planned developments. To offer recreational opportunities close to home, to enhance the appearance of neighborhoods by conservation of streams and local spots of natural beauty, to add to the sense of spaciousness through the preservation of natural spaces, to counteract the effects or urban monotony and congestion in the streets, to encourage cooperative relationships between neighbors and participation by all age groups in the use and care of local open space tracts in new residential subdivisions, to promote harmonious architecture between adjacent dwellings or institutional buildings, and to encourage the placement of structures in proper relationship to the natural characteristics of the site.
B.
Business or commercial planned development. To promote the cooperative development of business or commercial centers each with adequate off-street parking, to control access points on thoroughfares, to separate pedestrians and automobile traffic, to aid in stabilizing property values, to develop centers of size and location compatible with marked potential green spaces and to encourage harmonious architecture between adjacent commercial structures and between homes and commercial structures.
C.
Industrial planned development. To promote the establishment of industrial parks, to permit groups of industrial buildings with integrated design and a coordinated physical plan, and to encourage recreational facilities with industrial areas with landscaped green spaces.
§ 430-50 Principal uses.
Principal uses are as follows: other than the existing use, no use shall be permitted in the planned unit development district except in conformity with an approved recorded specific implementation plan adopted pursuant to the provisions hereinafter set forth.
§ 430-51 General requirements.
In the planned unit development district there shall be no predetermined specific lot area, lot width, height, floor area ratio, yard, usable open space, sign and off-street parking requirements. Such requirements which are made a part of an approved recorded specific implementation plan agreed upon by the owner and the City shall be construed, with the recorded plan itself, as a part of this article.
§ 430-52 Criteria for approval.
As a basis for determining the acceptability of a planned unit development district application, the following criteria shall be applied with specific consideration as to whether or not it is consistent with the spirit and intent of this article and has the potential for producing significant community benefits in terms of environmental and aesthetic design:
A.
Character and intensity of land use. In a planned unit development district the uses and their intensity, appearance and arrangement shall be of a visual and operational character which:
(1)
Is compatible with the physical nature of the site or area;
(2)
Would produce an attractive environment of sustained aesthetic desirability, economic stability and functional practicality compatible with the general development plan;
(3)
Would not adversely affect the anticipated provision for school or other municipal service unless jointly resolved; and
(4)
Would not create a traffic or parking demand incompatible with existing or proposed facilities.
B.
Economic impact. A planned unit development shall not adversely affect the economic prosperity of the City or of surrounding properties.
C.
Preservation and maintenance of open space. In a planned unit development district adequate provisions for the improvement and continuing preservation and maintenance of attractive open space shall be made.
D.
Implementation schedule. A PUD shall include suitable assurances that each phase could be completed in a manner which would not result in an adverse effect upon the community as a result of termination at any point in the development. The implementation schedule shall designate to what extent the development shall be implemented within a twenty-four-month period of time of approval of the implementation plan for the property not to revert back to its original zoning.
§ 430-53 Procedure for rezoning as planned unit development.
[Amended by Ord. No. 872-99]
