1181.03 PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA; GENERAL REQUIREMENTS.
   An application for a planned unit development shall meet all of the following requirements to qualify for consideration:
   A.   Public water and sewer facilities shall be available or shall be provided as part of the development.
   B.   The proposed residential density shall not exceed that permitted in the zoning districts within which the planned unit development is proposed.
   C.   For each square foot of land gained through the reduction or averaging of lot areas, an equal amount of land shall be dedicated to the City for park purposes or shall be set aside as common livable open space, owned and maintained by a homeowners' and tenants' association, for the common use of the home or lot owners and tenants within the development, as required herein.
   D.   All principal buildings must front upon a public or private street or way.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
1181.04 MINIMUM GROSS SITE AREA.
   The minimum gross site area for a planned unit development shall be as follows:
   A.   A planned unit development project shall contain not less than fifty (50) acres of gross land area, exclusive of:
      1.   Any portion of the right of way of any existing public or private street or any such proposed right of way shown on the Major Thoroughfare Plan of the City, as adopted and amended;
      2.   Any portion of any railroad rights-of-way; and
      3.   Land utilized by public utilities as easements for major facilities, such as electric transmission lines, sewer lines, water mains or other similar lands which are not available to the owner because of such easements.
   B.   All land within the development shall be contiguous in that the site shall not be divided into segments by:
      1.   Any limited access highway;
      2.   Any railroad right-of-way; or
      3.   Any tract of land, other than local streets or rights-of-way for pipelines or electric transmission lines, not owned by the developer or the planned unit development. The site must be capable of being planned and developed as one integral unit.
   C.   The site shall be in common ownership or control by the developer at the time the proposed development is approved. Any transfer of land resulting in ownership by two or more parties shall not alter the applicability of the regulations contained herein.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
1181.05 DETERMINATION OF NET SITE AREA AVAILABLE FOR DEVELOPMENT.
   The net site area available for development into residential lots and other uses shall be computed by subtracting from the gross site area the amount of land area needed for street rights-of-way. The average percentage for street rights-of-way in conventional subdivision developments to be subtracted from the gross site area is considered to be twenty (20) percent. However, in a planned unit development, the actual area for street rights-of-way to be provided may be subtracted from the gross site area to determine the net site area available for development.
   To determine that portion of the net site area available for residential development, the acreage to be developed as educational institutions, religious places of worship, government buildings or any similar uses shall be subtracted from the net site acreage.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
1181.06 MINIMUM INDIVIDUAL LOT AREA REQUIRED FOR RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS.
   Individual lots may be reduced in area below the minimum lot area required for the zoning district, provided that the density of dwelling units per net acre is not greater than would be allowed if the site were developed under the district requirements. Lot areas within planned unit development projects shall not be varied or reduced in area more than thirty (30) percent of the lot size required in the zoning district regulations. Thus the minimum lot areas for planned unit developments within the respective corresponding residential districts shall be as follows:
 
District
Minimum Net Lot Area (sq. ft.)
COS
30,000
R-LD
6,125
R-MD
5,250
R-UD
3,000
R-TH
7,000
R-MHL, R-MHH
30,000
 
   The net area of a lot shall be computed exclusive of any portion of the right-of-way of any existing public or private street, or any proposed rights-of-way.
1181.07 MINIMUM LOT WIDTH FOR RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS.
   The minimum lot widths at the building setback line within the respective districts shall as follows:
 
District
Minimum Lot Width (sq. ft.)
COS
90
R-LD
55
R-MD
50
R-UD
30
R-TH
50
R-MHL, R-MHH
100
 
   All lots shall have a lot depth to lot width ratio not greater than three and one-half to one.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
1181.08 MINIMUM FRONT YARD DEPTH AND BUILDING SETBACK REQUIREMENT.
   All principal and accessory buildings shall be set back a minimum distance of twenty-five (25) feet measured from the right-of-way lines of all public and private streets or ways.

1181.09 MINIMUM REAR YARD DEPTH.
   The minimum depth of rear yards shall be thirty (30) feet.
