PUD
Planned Unit Development District
These districts are used for specialized purposes to allow for innovative design techniques. The application of flexible land Use regulations to the Development of land is often difficult or impossible within traditional zoning district regulations. The objective of a PUD is to encourage ingenuity, imagination and design efforts on the part of builders, architects, site planners, and Developers to produce Developments which may depart from the strict requirements of traditional zoning districts in return for a gain in aesthetic and functional design as compared with traditional zoning districts. Planned Unit Development districts shall be suitable in location, area, and character for the Uses and Structures proposed, and are to be planned and developed in a unified manner. Land proposed for Planned Unit Developments proposed shall comply with the Comprehensive Plan and may be located in all Future Land Use Districts except that residential development in the Rural/Silviculture R/S and Agricultural-Intensity A-I land use designations shall be in accordance with the Planned Rural Development PRD District.
