Chapter 18.20 - PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENTS

Sections:

18.20.010 - Purpose.

Planned unit developments, involving the careful application of design, are encouraged to achieve a more functional, aesthetical pleasing and harmonious living and working environment within the city which otherwise might not be possible by strict adherence to the regulations of this title. The planned unit development district is designed to accommodate various types of developments, such as neighborhood and district shopping centers, professional and administrative areas, multiple housing developments, singlefamily housing developments, commercial service centers and industrial parks, or any other use or combination of uses which can be made appropriately a part of a planned unit development. The planned unit development district is intended to enable and encourage flexibility of design and development of land in such manner as to promote its most appropriate use; to allow diversification in the relationship of various uses, structures and spaces; to facilitate the adequate and economical provision of streets and utilities; to preserve the natural and scenic qualities of open space and offer recreational opportunities close to home; to enhance the appearance of neighborhoods through the preservation of natural green spaces; and to counteract the effects of urban congestion and monotony.

The proposed development shall be designed to produce an environment of a stable and desirable character and shall provide standards of open space and permanently reserved areas for off-street parking adequate for the occupancy proposed, and at least equivalent to those required elsewhere by the provisions

of this title for such use. In case of residential development, it shall include provisions for recreation areas to meet the needs of the anticipated population.

Any land use permitted by this title may be considered as a use within the planned unit development district.
