17.72.070: PLANNING AND APPROVAL PROCESS FOR P-C ZONE

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

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, 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.

17.72.140.30: FINAL REVIEW

Once all application requirements have been met, redline corrections made, revised plans submitted and City Engineer's approval given, the site plan may be approved, approved with conditions or denied by the Planning Director or his/her designee.
