72 PLANNED COMMUNITY P-C ZONE
All land use designations, adopted or amended, are incorporated in this Code and referenced in the City Recorder's Office or on file with the City Recorder.
The P-C Zone shall consist of the following land uses, which shall be identified in the community structure plan as provided in this chapter. Land uses so identified are described in the land use element of the general plan. Various uses proposed in the P-C Zone may only be established in conformance with provisions of this chapter. Use classification requests and new and unlisted uses shall be considered as described in subsection 17.18.030.030 of this Code.
The following uses may be conducted anywhere within the P-C Zone:
Daycare facilities.
Healthcare facilities.
Home based occupations according to title 5, chapter 5.38 of this Code.
Industrial and manufacturing uses.
Mix of permitted uses (including, without limitation, office/commercial, office/residential, retail/residential) within individual structures.
Open space, including landscaped areas and areas in natural vegetation, golf courses, parks, recreational areas.
Public facilities, such as schools, playgrounds and trails.
Religious activities.
Residential uses of all types on a range of lot sizes including, without limitation, single-family detached; single-family attached; multi-family residential; townhomes; loft apartments; residential units above ground floor retail, commercial or office uses and condominiums.
Retail, service, office, hotel, restaurant, entertainment and all other commercial uses of any type except as otherwise identified in this chapter as a conditional or prohibited use.
Other accessory uses which are ancillary to, and designed to serve, any of the foregoing uses.
A conditional use permit may be issued for the following uses in the P-C Zone:
Pawnbrokers, secondhand merchandise dealers, secondary metals dealers and recyclers and similar businesses.
Each developer requesting the creation of a P-C Zone or approval of a P-C Zone plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat or project plan/preliminary subdivision plat may propose, in the applicable P-C Zone plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat or project plan/preliminary subdivision plat, the inclusion of: a) land use categories in addition to those set forth in section 17.72.020 of this chapter; b) specific uses within each land use category in addition to the permitted uses set forth in section 17.72.030 of this chapter; and c) land uses that the Planning Director deems to be substantially or materially inconsistent with the purpose and function of the P-C Zone and the land use categories as described in this chapter and in the land use element of the general plan. Such decisions of the Planning Director can be appealed to the City Council. The inclusion of any proposed additional land use category or any additional permitted use must be approved by the City Council as a conditional use. Design standards for such conditional use shall be included in the applicable master subdivision plat or project plan/preliminary subdivision plat.
Uses may be conducted in the P-C Zone only in accordance with the following regulations:
Each Planned Community Zone shall contain a minimum of five hundred (500) acres. If the P-C Zone contains multiple owners, the owners may, if necessary to reach the five hundred (500) acre threshold, or if such owners otherwise desire, combine their properties for planning and development purposes.
Development within the P-C Zone will require a series of plans to be prepared and submitted for approval. The purpose of this process is to clearly establish the development plans for property within P-C Zones while recognizing the large scale nature of the development and the need for integrated planning. The first step is the preparation and approval of a P-C Zone plan that establishes the development program for the P-C Zone and, upon approval, vests the entitlement to build up to the number of dwelling units and up to the square footage of nonresidential uses reflected in the P-C Zone plan. The second step is the creation and approval of the community structure plan that establishes the major infrastructure systems, the unifying systems for the development such as open space and transportation corridors, and provides locations of the more specific land uses (neighborhoods, villages, towns and business and research parkways). The third step is a recorded master subdivision plat that provides more detailed information regarding the proposed development of a multi-phased portion of the property and, when recorded, subdivides portions of the property into logical development units. Prior to commencing development, the developer must submit a project plan/preliminary subdivision plat providing sufficient detail for the creation of lots, dedication of roads, layout of specific land uses and the engineering of requisite infrastructure and a final subdivision plat. If the project includes condominiums, a condominium map is required as per State law.
This process is summarized in the following table:
| Approval Step | Scale (Area Covered By Application) | What Is Described In Plan | Approval Level |
| P-C Zone and plan | Total land area to be rezoned P-C | Land area to be rezoned with land use table outlining number of residential units and square feet of nonresidential development | Planning Commission and City Council |
| Community structure plan | Any portion of project that has a common street system, open space system or other infrastructure system | Major systems for the larger development such as major roadways, open space networks, general location of villages, towns, neighborhoods and business and research parkways | Staff |
| Master subdivision | Multiple phases of development. May, but is not required to, include entire P-C Zone | Similar to requirements of preliminary plat, but with less detail. Show major development parcel locations, open space system, major infrastructure associated with roadways | Planning Commission and City Council |
| Project plan/ preliminary subdivision plat | Single phase of development | All requirements of preliminary plat and many requirements of site plan review and condominium map review processes, if applicable | Planning Commission |
| Final plat approval | Phase or parts thereof | Final plat, site plan and condominium map requirements | City Attorney, City Engineer and Planning Director |
Development within a P-C Zone will also be governed by design guidelines. This chapter provides for at least two (2) levels of design guidelines to be prepared and recorded as covenants that will establish the design standards for public and private improvements. At the time that the master subdivision plat is approved, guidelines that govern the design and maintenance of major public infrastructure improvements (including, without limitation, sidewalks, street lighting, paving, street furniture, etc.), and general building placement, massing and design criteria will be recorded. The second set of guidelines will be created at the time of the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat application. These guidelines will establish in much greater detail the character and nature of the design of public and private improvements within the area covered by the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat. The project plan/preliminary subdivision plat will be a fully integrated development plan and may simultaneously address subdivision, site plan and condominium mapping considerations. If all of these considerations are addressed, this case, the design guidelines shall meet the design guideline requirements of site plans, subdivisions and condominium maps. The design guidelines developed for the final project plan/subdivision plat shall be consistent with those submitted at the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat stage as such submittals may be modified based on the comments of City staff. To the extent that any portion of the development is not covered by the final project plan/subdivision plat, design guidelines may be prepared and presented for approval as part of individual subdivision plat, condominium map or site plan applications.
In acting on requests for approval of a P-C Zone plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat, project plan/preliminary subdivision plat, or final subdivision plat (including the site plan or condominium map components, if applicable), neither City staff, the Planning Commission nor the City Council shall be bound by limitations on density or intensity of use, use restrictions and limitations, design standards or similar limitations on development or construction contained in other portions of this title. Decisions with respect to such matters (including, without limitation, appropriate densities and intensity of use) will be made by the City staff, Planning Commission and City Council, as applicable, in connection with each request for approval of a P-C Zone plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat, project plan/preliminary subdivision plat, or final subdivision plat (including the site plan or condominium map components, if applicable), taking into account the purpose of the P-C Zone and the densities, intensity of use, uses and mix of uses permitted herein. In addition, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this chapter and other portions of this title, the provisions of this chapter shall control. Neither the City staff, the Planning Commission nor the City Council shall have the discretion to disapprove a P-C plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat or final subdivision plat (including the site plan or condominium map components, if applicable) on the basis of types of uses proposed, mixture of uses, location of uses, densities or intensities of use so long as the proposed uses, densities and intensities of use are permitted under this chapter.
After the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat is approved, a final project plan/subdivision plat covering all or portions of the area covered by the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat may be submitted for approval. All single-family lot areas within the final project plan/subdivision plat shall be platted as subdivisions and all condominiums shall be indicated on an appropriate condominium map prior to development in accordance with procedures of this chapter. All other developments will be considered site plans which can be designated as lots in subdivisions or as private, limited common or common areas in condominium plats. Site plan and/or conditional use permit approvals are required for all nonsingle-family residential areas or developments prior to construction. However, subdivisions, condominiums and site plans may be integrated into the final project plan/preliminary subdivision plat application and reviewed and approved concurrently, according to the processes outlined for final subdivision plat, condominium map and site plan outlined below.
A preliminary condominium map application may be submitted as part of an integrated plan as outlined in the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat or may be separately made to the Planning Department for any proposed condominium only after the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat has been reviewed. The preliminary condominium map application shall be reviewed by the City staff prior to submittal of a final map application for the condominium. City staff will review the preliminary map and may discuss it in a Development Review Committee meeting. If a final condominium map is not approved within one year of the date of preliminary approval, the preliminary map shall be void. Any requirements of this section considered by the Planning Director and the City Engineer to be nonapplicable to a specific condominium project may be waived or altered in writing by the City. The preliminary map application shall consist of the following information or other information as required by the Planning Department and City Engineer:
Site plans may be reviewed concurrently with the project plan/preliminary subdivision and final project plan/subdivision plats. Any proposed commercial, office, industrial, multi-family residential, open space, parks or institutional developments and alterations to existing developments not included in the project plan/preliminary subdivision plat shall be on recorded lots in subdivision plats or within areas of recorded condominium maps and shall meet the site plan review requirements outlined in this chapter. All City ordinances and requirements shall be met in preparing site plan applications and in designing and constructing the development. Building permits may not be obtained nor shall any site work be performed prior to site plan approval.
"Open space" is landscaped or natural area or farmland which is established to provide and preserve recreational, agricultural or other uses in the P-C Zone as approved by the City. Design guidelines shall govern the use and character of the open space. Each P-C Zone shall contain a minimum of twenty five percent (25%) of gross acreage in open space which shall be designated in the P-C Zone plan. Recreation/open space will be recorded as a lot or lots in subdivisions or as common areas in condominium plats and shall be located according to environmental conditions and infrastructure needs. All open spaces shall be maintained with perpetual open space or conservation easements. Privately owned open space shall be preserved and properly maintained by the owners through taxing districts, owners' associations with power to assess and collect fees for maintenance or other assessment and maintenance mechanisms acceptable to the city council. Open space may not include private lot or individually owned yard areas. All privately owned open spaces which are accessible to the public either free of charge or through payment of a fee may be included in the required open space of the P-C zone.
Yard requirements shall be determined and governed by the design guidelines required in this chapter. The following minimum requirements shall apply in the P-C zone:
Fencing, screening and clear vision requirements shall be determined and governed by the design guidelines required in this chapter. The following requirements shall apply in the P-C zone:
Architectural requirements shall be determined and governed by the design guidelines required in this chapter. The following architectural standards and requirements shall apply in the P-C zone:
Landscaping requirements shall be determined and governed by the design guidelines required in this chapter. The following landscaping requirements shall apply in the P-C zone:
Lighting requirements shall be determined and governed by the design guidelines required in this chapter.
The following requirements shall apply in the P-C zone:
At any time after the approval of a P-C zone plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat, project plan/preliminary subdivision plat or final project plan/subdivision, the developer and the city may enter into a development agreement reflecting all conditions of approval of the applicable plan and such other matters as the city and the developer may agree. The city may agree, under the terms of such development agreement, that the developer will be entitled to develop the applicable P-C zone in accordance with the approved P-C zone plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat, project plan/preliminary subdivision plat or final project plan/subdivision general land use plan, specific land use plan, master plan, and final plat (as applicable) without regard to future amendments, additions or changes to the ordinances and that the process for approving amendments to an approved P-C zone plan, community structure plan, master subdivision plat, project plan/preliminary subdivision plat or final project plan/subdivision general land use plan (or any amendments thereto) will be as set forth in the applicable ordinances as of the date of the development agreement or other date agreed upon by the parties. Any entitlement granted to the developer under the terms of a development agreement shall be subject to such amendments, changes or additions to this chapter as are required to protect health, safety or welfare of the citizens of the city.
The City Engineer shall review the final plat and construction plans and determine compliance with the engineering and surveying standards and criteria set forth in City standards and ordinances and the laws of the State. The City Engineer shall sign the final plat if the City Engineer finds that the subdivision and the construction plans fully comply with the improvement standards required by City ordinances, that the survey description is correct, and that all easements are correctly described and located. If the final plat complies, the City Engineer shall prepare an estimate of the construction costs for all proposed public improvements and sign the plat in the appropriate signature block. If the final plat or the construction plans do not comply the City Engineer shall return the plat to the developer with comment.
Once all application requirements have been met, redline corrections made, revised plans and plat submitted and City staff approval given, the applicant shall submit a twenty four inch by thirty six inch (24" x 36") Mylar drawing of the corrected final plat with the signatures of the owners and the City Engineer.
The Planning Director shall have the discretion to disapprove a final project plan/subdivision plat (and related site plans and condominium maps) only on the basis of: a) the failure of the proposed final project plan/subdivision plat to include all of the elements required by this section; b) a material inconsistency with the approved project plan/preliminary subdivision plat; or c) the failure of the design guidelines to provide for a community the character of which would be substantially inconsistent with the purpose of the P-C Zone.
The applicant shall submit, with the final plat, a current title report to be reviewed by the City Attorney. A current title report is considered to be one which correctly discloses all recorded matters of title regarding the property and which is prepared and dated not more than thirty (30) days before the proposed recordation of the final map. The applicant shall submit the improvement guarantee and any other documents and information required by the City Attorney.
The City Recorder or his/her designee shall record the final subdivision plat at the Office of the Salt Lake County Recorder. The final subdivision plat may not be recorded until all of the following items have been completed:
The City Engineer shall review the final map and construction plans and determine compliance with the engineering and surveying standards and criteria set forth in City ordinances and the laws of the State.
