PUD

Planned Unit Development Districts

The purpose of the PUD District is to provide for carefully planned residential, mixed use and certain commercial developments at appropriate locations within the Town of Easton. It is the intent of this Section to allow all aspects of a PUD District to be subject to public review and control by the Town with specific provisions to be made on a case-by-case basis for adequate open space, architectural appearance, the height, bulk and location of buildings, required public facilities, and a variety of housing types, densities, and/or compatible commercial or industrial uses as a part of a detailed development plan. Not all locations in the Town are suitable for PUD development and the nature, size, scale or intensity of proposed uses may cause a particular site not to be suitable for a specific PUD proposal. Therefore, there is no general presumption that an application for such a use at a particular location is valid, inures to the general benefit of the Town or is in compliance with the Town’s Comprehensive Plan. Instead, each application will be evaluated according to its particular location and the degree to which the developer is willing or able to propose a development plan which furthers the goals and objectives of this Section and the Ordinance generally.
