1. Purpose and objectives. The purpose and intent of the Planned Development (PD) and Planned Mixed Use (PMXU) districts is to create unified standards for development in order to provide flexible, customized zoning and subdivision standards to encourage imaginative and innovative designs for the development of property in the City consistent with this chapter and in accordance with the City of Rusk Master Plan. The PD/PMXU rules are designed:
   1. To allow development harmonious with nearby areas;
   2. To enhance and preserve areas which are unique or have outstanding scenic, environmental, cultural or historic significance;
   3. To provide an alternative for more efficient use of land, resulting in smaller utility networks, safer streets, more open space and lower construction and maintenance costs;
   4. To encourage harmonious and coordinated development by developing plans that better address natural features, community facilities, circulation patterns and surrounding properties and neighborhoods;
   5. To enable productive development of land with unusual physical or location characteristics that may not be feasible under standard zoning district regulations;
   6. To provide and result in an enhanced residential and/or work environment for those persons living and/or working within the district; and
   7. To require the application of professional planning and design techniques to achieve overall coordinated mixed-use developments and avoid the negative effects of piecemeal, segregated, or unplanned development.
   The PD/PMXU plan shall be prepared and approved in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
2. Mixed use development. The PD and PMXU districts may include and allow for compatible mixed uses such as residential, commercial and/or industrial uses within a single project in order to provide the flexibility required for a well-designed and innovative development. Zoning uses may also be vertically integrated within a building or area.
3. Flexible planning. When considering a PD or PMXU, the unique nature of each proposal may require, under proper circumstances, the departure from the strict enforcement of certain present codes and ordinances. Final approval by the City Council shall constitute authority and approval for such flexible planning to the extent that the PD or PMXU, as approved, departs from existing codes and ordinances. The flexibility permitted for a PD or PMXU does not imply that any standard or requirement will be varied or decreased.
4. Rules applicable. The City Council, after public hearing and proper notice to all parties affected and after recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission, may attach a PD or PMXU district designation to any tract of land in the City. In approving a PD or PMXU, the City Council may require additional standards deemed necessary to create a reasonable transition to, and protection of, adjacent property and public areas, including standards and regulations for items listed below. Under the PD designation the following rules apply:
   1. A PD and PMXU district may be established where the principal purpose is to serve as a transitional district, or as an extension of an existing district whereby the provision of off-street parking, screening walls, fences, open space and/or planting, etc. would create a protective transition between a lesser and more restrictive district. A PD or PMXU district requires a minimum of five acres unless approved by the City Council.
   2. In approving a PD or PMXU, additional uses not permitted in the base zoning district(s) may be permitted.
   3. Standards required by the base zoning district(s) apply in a PD and PMXU except that the following regulations and standards may be varied in the adoption provided that the plan is consistent with sound urban planning and engineering practices:
      1. Front, side and rear setbacks;
      2. Maximum height;
      3. Lot coverage;
      4. Off-street parking (a PD or PMXU may propose a shared parking agreement, use limitations or other proposal to reduce off-street parking requirements);
      5. Special district requirements pertaining to the base zoning;
      6. Lot size including, but not limited to, lot and yard area, widths and depths;
      7. Accessory buildings and uses;
      8. Signage;
      9. Landscaping and tree preservation;
      10. Architectural, building materials and colors;
      11. Outdoor lighting;
      12. Fencing;
      13. Outdoor display and storage;

      18. Open Space/Green Space requirements;
      19. Other similar standards.
   4. The PD and PMXU shall result in overall higher standards than what would be provided by the base zoning district.
   5. As examples: (1) if residential lot sizes are decreased or development densities are increased, the PD and PMXU will be expected to significantly exceed other standards such as green space and parkland, landscaping, architectural controls, thoroughfare or other transportation improvements, creation of unique characteristics of the neighborhood, retention of significant trees and/or provision of public facilities, etc., or (2) if building/development setbacks are proposed to be decreased, other standards would be expected to be increased such as landscaping, retention of significant trees, architectural controls, land uses and/or unique site layout standards, etc.
   6. If the PD or PMXU is proposed to be developed in multiple phases, the phasing of improvements shall reflect consideration toward establishing important objectives such as screening, landscaped areas, open space and recreational areas and amenities, necessary transportation improvements, and protections against negative impacts and safety features in the early phases of the development.
5. Site plan. Upon zoning application or prior to issuance of a building permit, a Site Plan of the entire property within the PD or PMXU will be considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission prior to any recommendation to, or consideration by, the City Council of the district ordinance. A Site Plan may also be considered as a Preliminary Plat for subdivision purposes if it meets the standards of a Preliminary Plat as contained in the Subdivision Ordinance.
   
   If an applicant requests that the PD or PMXU Site Plan also be considered as a Preliminary Plat, the applicant shall pay fees in accordance with the most current adopted fees for such Preliminary Plat in addition to applicable zoning application fees and other related fees. In addition, the notification, expiration, extension, revision and responsibility rules contained in the Subdivision Ordinance for the Preliminary Plat shall apply.
   
   The following rules shall be applicable to the Site Plan:
   1. Approval of a Site Plan will determine the location and mix of uses. If considered appropriate in the opinion of the City Council, the Site Plan will also contain additional standards deemed necessary to create a reasonable transition to, and protection of, adjacent property and public areas, including standards and regulations for items listed in subsection (d) above.
   2. The Planning and Zoning Commission and/or City Council may approve, request modifications, or deny approval of the Site Plan based on evaluation of details on the plan with respect to:
      1. The plan's compliance with all provisions of the Subdivision and Zoning ordinances and other ordinances of the City;
      2. The impact of the development on the surrounding properties and neighborhood;

      8. The use of landscaping, screening and tree retention to provide buffers to shield lights, noise, movement or activities from adjacent properties; and to complement the design and location of buildings and be integrated into the overall site design.
      9. The location, size and configuration of open space areas to ensure that such areas are suitable for intended recreation and conservation uses.
      10. The adequacy of water, drainage, sewerage facilities, garbage disposal and other utilities necessary for essential services to residents and occupants.
      11. The method, timing and sequence of phasing of improvements;
      12. Other similar aspects of the Site Plan.
6. Amendments. Consideration of amendments to a PD or PMXU will take into consideration the effect of the proposed development on the remainder of the property and adjacent properties and neighborhoods.
   
   Amendments to the PD or PMXU that are substantive shall require public hearings in the manner required for any other zoning change.
   
   Minor changes that do not affect the major features or characteristics or significantly change the boundaries of a use area shown on the Site Plan may be approved administratively as determined by the appropriate departments. Major changes shall not include changes that alter the basic relationship of the proposed development to adjacent property; change the uses permitted; increase the density, building height or coverage of the site; reduce yards provided at the boundary of the site or reduce the amount of land designated for open space. Minor changes may include minor adjustments to lot lines, parking and loading areas, driveways, parking counts, building configurations and orientations, architectural design, building materials, landscape materials, tree retention, street alignments, sidewalks, drainage facilities, project phasing, lighting, signage, site layout, changes of 5% or less in the areas of land use or other similar features.
