Planned Unit Development

The planned unit development zone district PUD district is intended to respond to unique and extraordinary circumstances, where more flexible zoning than what is achievable through a standard zone district is desirable and multiple variances, waivers, and conditions can be avoided.; The general purpose of a PUD district is to provide an alternative to conventional land use regulations, combining use, density, site plan, and building form considerations into a single process, and substituting procedural protections for the more prescriptive requirements in this Code.; Unique and extraordinary circumstances that justify use of a PUD district include, but are not limited to, the following: Where a development site has special physical characteristics, including but not limited to irregular or odd-shaped lots, or lots with significant topographical barriers to standard development or construction practice; or Where a development site is subject to an existing PUD and rezoning to a new PUD district will bring the site closer to conformance with current zoning regulations and adopted plans; or A development proposal is unable to meet the standard zoning district requirements due to unique development design; or Where the proposed scale or timing of a development project demands a more customized zoning approach to achieve a successful, phased development.
