5-8-1: PURPOSE AND INTENT:
The planned development is intended to permit, in accordance with the master plan, the development of areas containing not less than sixty (60) contiguous acres under one ownership or control, whereby the location of all residential, commercial, industrial and governmental uses, school sites, parks, playgrounds, recreation areas, parking areas and other open spaces shall be controlled in such a manner as to permit housing accommodations and land uses in orderly relationship to one another. Such planned developments, when approved, shall constitute a part of the master plan of the Village as a whole, and the consideration of such planned developments by the Plan Commission shall be based on recognition of this requirement.
Such planned developments are intended to conserve local areas of natural beauty, to add to the sense of spaciousness, to achieve better design in buildings and to help promote the public health, safety, morals and welfare of the people residing therein and nearby, and to aid in stabilizing and improving property values.
It is intended that this Chapter on Planned Developments superimposes the requirements of this Zoning Title upon the underlying district without changing the fundamental intent of the underlying district requirements as to the land use and density of said use. There shall be no minimum lot size, no minimum lot width and no minimum setback lines, except there shall be a building setback line of one hundred feet (100') from the boundary lines of any such planned development.
No planned development shall be permitted in R1 or R2 Districts.
