ARTICLE A. PURPOSE AND INTENT OF OVERLAY ZONING DISTRICTS

SECTION:

9-9A-1: PURPOSE AND INTENT:

This chapter establishes a series of overlay zoning districts. These overlay zoning districts supplement the land use regulations and/or development standards of the corresponding underlying base zoning district by recognizing distinct areas of the city that have special, unique, or important social, architectural, site, neighborhood, environmental, or compatibility issues or characteristics that, because of their nature, require special considerations not otherwise adequately provided by the underlying base zoning district applicable to the property. (Ord. 2013-05, 2-6-2014)

Exceptions & meaning →

9-9A-2: DESIGNATION ON ZONING MAP:

As described in chapter 3, "Zoning Districts And Map", of this title, overlay zoning districts shall be designated on the city zoning map by their representative symbol along with the base zoning district in a format determined by the planning director. For example, a planned development overlay zoning district combined with a medium density residential base zoning district would be shown on the zoning map with the medium density residential shown as the underlying district and the overlay shown with an outline. (Ord. 2013-05, 2-6-2014)

Exceptions & meaning →

9-9A-3: APPLICABILITY OF STANDARDS:

The provisions of this chapter shall apply to all parcels of land located within the designated boundaries of an overlay district as illustrated on maps contained on the city zoning map. In the event of a conflict with the regulations of the underlying base zoning district and the overlay zoning district, the provisions of the overlay zoning district shall apply. Where an overlay zoning district is silent, the regulations of other sections of this title shall apply. (Ord. 2013-05, 2-6-2014)

ARTICLE B. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) OVERLAY ZONING DISTRICTS

SECTION:

Exceptions & meaning →

9-9B-1: PURPOSE AND INTENT:

This article establishes the Planned Unit Development (PUD) Overlay Zone for the purpose of providing project specific architectural and development standards for new development of residential subdivisions in the City. The PUD is intended to allow some flexibility in the zoning district development standards with special consideration and review. (Ord. 2013-05, 2-6-2014)

9-9B-2: FORM AND CONTENT OF PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY ZONES:

9-9B-4: SPECIAL DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS FOR SPECIFIC PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENTS:

In an effort to provide design flexibility and consistency with the architectural standards historically required for planned unit developments, as well as the standards provided in this title, the City has approved special setback standards for some planned unit developments. Table 9-9B-4-1, "Development Standards For Planned Unit Development Overlay Zones", of this section identifies the standards for each planned unit development where they deviate from the requirements of this title. The City may approve special setbacks for new planned unit developments, subject to an amendment to this table to include the special standards.
