The development standards for a PDO District shall be determined by applying the objectives and intent set forth in Chapter 1141 and Section 1147.01 and shall be recommended to Council by Planning Commission when the Commission initiates the PDO District rezoning process pursuant to Section 1147.03. Standards related to density, dwelling unit area, yard requirements, height and parking shall be as outlined below, however, the Planning Commission may recommend modification(s) to these requirements if the modifications (1) are appropriate and consistent with the proposed use(s); (2) are appropriate and consistent with the surrounding properties and neighborhood character; and (3) further sustainability guidelines set forth in Section 1165.06:
(a) Maximum Density. The maximum density permitted for development for the entire overlay area shall be the maximum density for the most intense use in the underlying districts.
(b) Yard Requirements. The front, side and rear yard requirements may be varied to accommodate a variety of structural patterns, clustering designs, and housing types, provided that for projects adjacent to substantially developed single-family neighborhoods, buildings located within fifty (50) feet of such single-family property shall maintain the established building line of the adjacent property.
(c) Height Regulations. The height of a proposed building shall be limited as follows by its location on the development site in relationship to adjacent properties:
(1) The maximum building height shall not exceed the distance from the building to any property line in an AA, A, or B District.
(2) The maximum building height shall not exceed twice the distance from the building to any property line in a MF District.
(3) The maximum height of a building as set forth in subsections (c)(1) and (2) hereof shall be measured from the average grade of the adjacent residential property.
(d) Parking Requirements. The parking requirements for the proposed use(s) shall be as stated in Chapter 1161.
(e) Additional Standards. Additional site specific development requirements formulated to achieve the objectives of the PDO District shall be established at the time the conditional use request and the Development Plan are reviewed. Any dimensional specifications adopted with such plan become binding land use requirements for the proposed development.
