In making its determination regarding the planned unit development, the council shall consider the following principles:
A. It is the intent of this chapter that site and building plans for a planned unit development be prepared by a designer, certified engineer or team of designers having professional planning competence. The council may require the applicant to engage professional expertise.
B. It is not the intent of this chapter that control of the design of a planned unit development by the council be so rigidly exercised that individual initiative be stifled and substantial additional expense incurred, but rather, that the control exercised be the minimum necessary to achieve the purpose of this chapter.
C. The council may approve or disapprove an application for a planned unit development. In an approval, the council may attach such conditions as it deems necessary to secure compliance with the purposes set forth in this chapter. The denial of an application for a planned unit development may be appealed. (Ord. 2002-02, 1-17-2002)
