PUD - PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT
§ 152.170 INTENT.
   (A)   Planned unit developments are promoted in the Village of Fowler as a way for the village to encourage high quality development with an emphasis on enhanced architectural and site design, landscaping, pedestrian, motorized and non-motorized activities. In creating a "win-win" situation, the developer may expect a cooperative working relationship from the village by receiving relief from typical zoning ordinance standards, such as setbacks and parking requirements.
   (B)   Planned unit developments (PUDs) may be established as distinct zoning districts when approved by the Village Council in accordance with the ordinance procedures. It is the intent of this district to provide for flexibility in the regulation of land development; to encourage innovation in land use and variety in design, layout, and type of structures; to achieve economy and efficiency in the use of land, natural resources, energy, and the provision of public services and utilities; to encourage useful open space; and to create better living, working, and shopping environments. In order to accomplish these objectives, this subchapter permits the relaxation of the conventional requirements found in other zoning districts. The use of land and the construction and use of buildings and other structures as planned unit developments shall be in conformance with the procedures, standards, requirements, and conditions for eligibility contained in this subchapter.
