PD
Planned District
The PD zoning district is applied to large parcels capable of being developed as an integrated community neighborhood, with appropriate public services, infrastructure, and neighborhood convenience retail and services; and to smaller sites with sensitive environmental resources or other unique constraints. The PD zoning district allows flexibility in site planning and development standards to encourage developments that are sensitive to natural resources and surrounding community context. The PD zoning district may be applied to any land use designation of the General Plan.
