9-1-15: MASTER PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCESS:
Applications for developments to be built according to a master plan which provides for mixes of uses and/or density transfers, clustering and unit concentrations and/or maximizing of permanent open space within the site commonly referred to as "planned unit development" (without regard to the manner in which title to the project will be held) shall be divided into two (2) review processes depending on the size and nature of the project. These review processes are described as follows:
   A.   Minor Master Planned Development Review: If an MPD meets the same qualifications in size and definition of a "minor subdivision" as described in this title and does not necessitate the creation of large public infrastructure to meet its needs, the MPD may be classified as a minor master planned development, and the planning commission may waive many of the requirements of the MPD review process, including off site infrastructure concurrency and bonding requirements. These types of projects are reviewed as minor master planned developments. The review process is subject to any applicable requirements of chapter 9 of this title.
   B.   Master Planned Development Review: Those projects having more than four (4) unit equivalents and/or fifteen percent (15%) or more of the total project floor area (exclusive of parking) devoted to nonresidential uses, or five (5) acres or more in scope shall be reviewed as master planned developments according to the procedure described in this title. Impact analysis and market analysis are required. The nature of the density transfers and zoning concessions within the project are set forth in chapter 9 of this title. The substantive requirements for master planned developments are described in chapter 9 of this title.
   C.   Sensitive Lands Review: If a master planned development is located within the sensitive lands overlay zone, or designated area, additional requirements and regulations may apply. See the sensitive lands provisions in chapter 10 of this title. (Ord., 1-18-2005; amd. Ord. 20-02, 3-17-2020)
