   A.    Description. The PD (planned area development) zone designation may be applied to property with a planned area development adopted as overlay zoning or as a primary zoning designation for a land area of five acres or larger.

      1.   If applied as an overlay zone, the regulations of the underlying zoning designation are overlaid and supplemented by the regulations in the adopted PD preliminary development plan.

      2.   If applied as a primary zoning designation, the regulations in the adopted PD preliminary development plan define the permitted uses of the property, and any land use not addressed in the adopted PD preliminary development plan for the property is prohibited.

      3.   Each adopted PD preliminary development plan shall have a unique name by which that PD is identified and regulated.

   B.    General. Properties in each PD are regulated based on site-specific regulations in the adopted PD preliminary development plan, prepared by or on behalf of the master property owner of the PD in accordance with this section. Each PD preliminary development plan is adopted through the rezoning process set forth in Article 13-14, as supplemented by this section.

   C.    Purpose. The purpose of the PD (planned area development) zone is to:

      1.   Ensure orderly and thorough planning and review procedures that will result in high quality urban design and to encourage variety in architectural design through techniques including, but not limited to, variations in building style, lot arrangements and site planning.

      2.   Establish procedures to provide flexibility in design, density and development requirements for development plans while ensuring that such flexibility does not adversely affect the intent and purpose of the general plan.

      3.   Encourage through innovative site planning such things as the preservation of natural character of the land, and economy in construction and maintenance of streets and public utilities.

      4.   Allow flexibility in design so that developments would produce maximum choice in the types of environments, living units, and commercial installations and facilities available to the public, and produce an efficient, esthetic, and desirable use of open space.

      5.   Produce an environment of stable character in harmony with the surrounding areas and developments.

   D.   PD preliminary development plan contents. The applicant shall prepare a proposed PD preliminary development plan containing written and graphic information describing the general nature of the proposed development and explaining its implementation of and compliance with the intent and objectives of the general plan and this Chapter. At a minimum, the proposed PD preliminary development plan shall include the following elements:

      1.   Narrative or overview, identifying the primary objectives of the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      2.   The proposed land use plan, using maps, graphics, and descriptions.

      3.   If the PD (planned area district) designation is an overlay, text showing that the proposed uses are permitted in the underlying zoning district.

      4.   Implementation and administrative regulations.

      5.   The relationship of the property to the surrounding areas affected by the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      6.   Development and design regulations for buildings, landscaping, parks, open space, and other elements of the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      7.   Description of the compatibility of the proposed PD preliminary development plan with adjoining land uses.

      8.   Detailed regulations and programs for the systematic implementation of the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      9.   A map showing the street system, lot lines, and topography.

      10.   Specific development standards for the map elements.

      11.   Hydrology analysis of the proposed PD preliminary development plan and its upstream and downstream context.

      12.   Standards for the phasing, construction and maintenance of major and collector streets proposed for the plan area or needed for servicing the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      13.   Standards for the phasing, construction and maintenance of sewage disposal, effluent use, storm water drainage, solid waste disposal, and public utilities.

      14.   Standards for the conservation, development, or utilization of natural resources, including surface water, soils, vegetation and wildlife.

      15.   For single-phase developments, a draft schedule for the preservation of site features established by the proposed PD preliminary development plan and the construction, dedication and provision of public services.

      16.   For multi-phased plans, a draft phasing schedule for the preservation of site features established by the proposed PD preliminary development plan, the development of the various master blocks of the proposed PD preliminary development plan, and the construction, dedication, and provision of public services within and supporting the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      17.   The proposed pattern of residential or commercial land uses, including areas to be conveyed, dedicated, or reserved for parks, parkways, playgrounds, school sites, public buildings, and other similar public and semi-public uses.

      18.   The existing underlying zoning district, an explanation of the extent to which the proposed PD (planned area development) zoning designation will be an overlay zone or a primary zoning designation, and a general description of the resulting changes in permitted uses in the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      19.   A detailed explanation of how and to what extent the proposed PD preliminary development plan is to supplement or supersede the adopted land development code.

      20.   A conceptual site plan for each building site and common open areas, showing the approximate location of all structures, buildings, and improvements (except for single family detached units which shall be indicated by lot location only), and indicating the proposed access ways, easements, and other public property needed for, and open spaces around, buildings and structures.

      21.   Preliminary plans and elevations of all building types, which need not be the result of final architectural decisions and need only be in sufficient detail for the Commission to recommend adoption of and for the Council to accept for adoption the proposed PD preliminary development plan.

      22.   An off-street parking and circulation diagram indicating the proposed movement of vehicles within the proposed PD preliminary development plan and to and from the existing thoroughfares.

      23.   A tabulation of the total number of acres in the proposed PD preliminary development plan and a tabulation of overall density per gross acre.

      24.   Provisions governing the use, maintenance, and continued protection of the proposed PD preliminary development plan and its parks, open spaces, and community-owned facilities.

      25.   All proposed model homes and model home complexes, including their proposed location in relation to other residential properties and proposed parking, lighting, and landscaping. The regulations in subsection 13-04-010 C. 5 apply to any model homes in an approved PD preliminary development plan.
