§ 151.224  RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL PUD DENSITY EVALUATION.
   The procedures for determining the allowable density of Residential and Commercial Planned Unit Development are as follows.  Allowable densities may be transferred from a tier to any other tier farther from the public water, but shall not be transferred to any tier closer to the public water.
   (A)   To determine the allowable density for Residential Planned Unit Developments:
      (1)   For lakes or tributaries, the suitable area within each tier is divided by the single residential lot size standard for the applicable management district. 
      (2)   Proposed locations and numbers of dwelling units or sites for the residential Planned Unit Developments are then compared with the tier, density, and suitability analyses herein and the maintenance and design criteria prescribed in § 151.225.  All Residential Planned Unit Developments must contain at least 5 dwelling units or sites.
      (3)   (a)   Dwelling unit or site density increases above the densities determined in the evaluation may be permitted if all dimensional standards in § 151.069 are met or exceeded.  Maximum density increases may only be allowed if all maintenance and design criteria in § 151.225 are also met or exceeded. Increases in dwelling unit or site densities must not exceed the maximums in the following table. Allowable densities may be transferred from any tier to any other tier further from the shoreland water body or watercourse, but must not be transferred to any other tier closer to the water body.
         (b)   Maximum allowable dwelling unit or site density increases for Residential Planned Unit Developments.

Maximum Density Increase Within Each Tier (Percent)
First
50%
Second
100%
Third
200%
Fourth
200%
Fifth
200%
 
   (B)   To determine the allowable density for Commercial Planned Unit Developments:
      (1)   The average inside living area size of dwelling units or sites is computed. Computation of inside living area need not include decks, patios, stoops, steps, garages, porches, or basements unless these areas are habitable space.
      (2)   The appropriate floor area ratio is then selected from the following table based upon the average unit floor area for the appropriate public water classification.

*For recreational camping areas, use the ratios listed for average floor area of 400 square feet.  Manufactured home sites in recreational areas shall use a ratio equal to the size of the manufactured home, or if known shall use the ratio listed for the average floored area of 1,000 square feet.
 
      (3)   The suitable area within each tier is multiplied by the floor area ratio to yield the total floor area in each tier allowed to be used for dwelling units or sites;
      (4)   The total floor area for each tier is divided by the average living area size to yield the number of dwelling units or sites allowed for each tier;
      (5)   Proposed locations and numbers of dwelling units or sites for the Commercial Planned Unit Developments are then compared with the tier, density, and suitability analyses herein and the maintenance and design criteria prescribed in § 151.221.
