Two-Family Residential Performance Development Overlay Zone

The Two-Family Residential Zone (R2) is established to provide a residential environment within the City which is characterized by attractively landscaped 1-family and 2-family residential lots and structures. This zone is intended to have a residential density slightly higher than the R1 zone, but to maintain a residential character comparable to that of a one-family residential area with large landscaped front yards. Representative uses in this zone are one- and two-family dwellings, home occupations, parks, playgrounds, schools, and churches.; The purpose of the Performance Development Overlay Zone is to encourage imaginative and efficient utilization of land, to develop a sense of community, and to insure compatibility with the surrounding neighborhoods and environment. This is accomplished by providing greater flexibility in the location of buildings on the land, the consolidation of open spaces, and the clustering of dwelling units. These provisions are intended to create more attractive and more desirable environments within the residential areas of Provo City.; A Performance Development (PD) is a residential development planned as a whole, single complex. It incorporates a definite development theme which includes the elements of usable open spaces, diversity of lot design or residential use, amenities, a well planned circulation system, and attractive entrances as part of the design.
