§ 154.296 CONVERSIONS TO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENTS.
   (A)   Resorts or other land uses and/or facilities may be converted to residential planned unit developments provided all of the following standards are met:
      (1)   Proposed conversions must be initially evaluated using the same procedures as for residential planned unit developments involving all new construction. Inconsistencies between existing features of the development and the PUD standards shall be identified.
      (2)   Deficiencies involving structure color, impervious surface coverage, open space and shore recreation facilities must be corrected as part of the conversion, or as specified in the conditional use permit.
      (3)   Shore and bluff impact zone deficiencies must be evaluated and reasonable improvements made as part of the conversion. These improvements must include, where applicable, the following:
         (a)   Removal of extraneous buildings, docks, or other facilities that no longer need to be located in shore or bluff impact zones;
         (b)   Remedial measures to correct erosion sites and improve the vegetative cover and screening of buildings and other facilities as viewed from the water; and
         (c)   If existing dwelling units are located in shore or bluff impact zones, conditions that preclude exterior expansions in any dimension or substantial alteration are attached to approvals of all conversions. The conditions must also provide for future relocation of dwelling units, where feasible, to other locations meeting all setback and elevation requirements when they are rebuilt or replaced.
      (4)   Existing dwelling unit or dwelling site densities that exceed standards prescribed in § 154.033, Nonconforming Uses, may be allowed to continue but shall not be increased, either at the time of conversion or in the future. Efforts must be made during any such conversion to limit impacts of high densities by requiring seasonal use, improving vegetative screening, centralizing shore recreation facilities, or other means.
