3. PUD Property Development Standards For All Land And Buildings In The Requested PUD:
a. Development requirements for each PUD shall be set forth in the written commitment document and shall include, but not be limited to: uses, density, lot area, lot width, lot depth, yard depths and widths, building height, building elevations, coverage, floor area ratio, parking, access, multiuse transportation access and pathways, screening, landscaping, architectural standards, design standards, project phasing or scheduling, management associations, and other requirements as the planning and zoning commission and/or the city council may deem appropriate.

c. A PUD subject parcel(s) shall be a minimum of three (3) acre unless the city council finds that property of less than three (3) acre is suitable as a PUD by virtue of:
(1) Unique character; or
(2) Infill development; or
(3) Topography or landscaping features; or
(4) Qualifying as an isolated problem area.
d. A PUD conceptual development plan shall include a conceptual development plan that illustrates the standards contained therein. This plan shall be submitted by the applicant at the time the zoning and PUD request is submitted. The PUD conceptual development plan shall include:
(1) The plan shall show the applicant's intent for the use(s) of the land within the proposed PUD in a visual manner and be supported by written documentation of proposals and standards for development.
(2) Dependent on the nature of the PUD request, this plan may be submitted as a residential plan, non-residential plan, or a mixed-use combination plan. For a mixed-use development, the plan shall comply with requirements for both the residential and non-residential plans.
(A) Residential Conceptual Development Plan: A conceptual development plan for residential land use shall set forth the land use proposals in a manner to adequately illustrate the type and nature of the proposed development. The plan shall include, but is not limited to, the proposed general land use, streets, thoroughfares, storm drainage, and preliminary lot arrangements. The applicant shall submit text material to further explain the characteristics of the plan, which may include, but shall be not limited to, multiuse transportation access and pathways, density, building height, screening, landscaped areas, project scheduling, parks and open space, and other pertinent development data. The applicant shall also submit color renderings or elevations to illustrate proposed architectural standards or requirements.
(B) Non-Residential Conceptual Development Plan: A conceptual development plan for non-residential uses shall set forth the land use proposals in a manner to adequately illustrate the type and nature of the proposed development. The applicant shall also submit text material to further explain the characteristics of the plan. The plan and text material shall include, but is not limited to, the types of use(s), topography and boundary of PUD subject parcel, the size, type and location of buildings and building sites, proposed ingress and egress, physical features of the site, existing streets, stormwater management, alleys and easements, location of future public facilities, multiuse transportation access and pathways, building height and location, parking, landscaping, screening, project scheduling and other information to adequately describe the proposed development and to provide data for approval that is to be used in preparing the final development plan(s). The applicant shall also submit color renderings or elevations to illustrate proposed architectural standards or requirements.
e. Conformance To The Conceptual Development Plan: Final development plans, including plats, construction plans, and/or site plans, submitted for the development of the PUD subject parcel(s) shall conform to the approved conceptual development plan. Details on the final development plan(s) with minor variations from the conceptual development plan may be approved by the City Planner, or designated city official without public hearing. If it is determined that a proposed change(s) constitutes a departure from the conceptual development plan and/or the development standards, the PUD written commitment document shall be adequately amended using the initial approval process contained herein. Changes to any of the following items constitute a departure from the conceptual development plan and/or development standards, thus changing the basic relationship of the proposed development to the adjacent property:
(1) The permitted uses;
(2) Increase in density;
(3) Increase in building height;
(4) Increase in building coverage of the site;
(5) Reduction in the off-street parking ratio;
(6) Reducing the building setbacks provided at the boundary of the site;
(7) Reduction of any open space plans; or
(8) Alteration of the overall design theme, primary architectural elements, or building materials. (Ord. 1702, 11-23-2020)
