Planned Development Overlay District

The purpose of a Planned Development Zoning District PD District is to provide for the development of land as an integral unit for single or mixed use in accordance with a PD concept plan that may include uses, regulations and other requirements that vary from the provisions of other zoning districts. PD Districts are intended to implement generally the goals and objectives of the city's comprehensive plan. PD Districts are also intended to encourage flexible and creative planning, to ensure the compatibility of land uses, to allow for the adjustment of changing demands to meet the current needs of the community, and to result in a higher quality development for the community than would result from the use of conventional zoning districts. In most circumstances, a PD District will be approved as an overlay zoning district. In circumstances, however, where newly annexed land is subject to an agreement that includes an integrated development plan and development standards that do not fit the purpose statement and standards of a base zoning district(s), the project may be approved as a freestanding PD District.
