Planned Mixed-Use District-2

The PMXD-2 district is primarily intended to implement the Tyler 1st Comprehensive Plan by accommodating a combination of high-density office, institutional, retail and service, and residential uses at a maximum density of 50 units per acre that function as a center of economic activity for residents of Tyler, Smith County, and the East Texas region. The PMXD-2 district is intended to be applied in areas designated for high density, mixed-use development on the Future Land Use Guide, namely at or near key intersections of major arterial roadways and in the city center. The PMXD-2 district is further intended to promote the same objectives of the PMXD-1 district listed in Sec. 10-25(d) above, and to also create sufficient residential and employment density within half-mile centers to be transit-ready for location of potential future public transit.; All developments created in a PMXD-2 district must be designed and developed in accordance with an approved site development plan or a written narrative detailing the development parameters of sufficient detail that it can be evaluated and submitted for approval to the Planning Commission and City Council. Where narrative is submitted and approved by the City Council, future site plans may be approved by staff when they are consistent with the standards included in the narrative. The district is not intended as a convenience to circumventing regulations set forth in other commercial or residential districts or as a tool for mass variance. A density bonus may be granted with a developer’s agreement subject to approval from City Council.
