In the case of any planned unit development, the Planning Board may recommend and the Town Board may authorize exceptions to the applicable bulk regulations of this chapter within the boundaries of the development, provided that the Planning Board and Town Board shall find that:
(A) The exception shall be solely for the purpose of promoting an integrated site plan no less beneficial to the residents or occupants of the development as well as the neighboring property, than would be obtained under the bulk regulations of this chapter for buildings developed on separate zoning lots;
(B) Spacing between principal buildings shall be at least equivalent to the spacing as would be required between buildings similarly developed under the terms of this chapter on separate zoning lots. It does not apply in corner-to-corner placement of buildings where perpendicular wall exposures do not overlap, due consideration being given to the openness normally afforded by intervening streets and alleys;
(C) Along the periphery of the planned unit developments, yards shall be provided as required by the regulations of the district in which the development is located; and
(D) In a residential planned unit development, the maximum number of dwelling units permitted shall be determined by dividing the net development area by the minimum lot area per dwelling unit required by the district or districts in which the area is located, and then increasing this number by 15%. Net
development area shall be determined by subtracting the area set aside for nonresidential uses from the gross development area and deducting 10% of the remainder for streets regardless of the amount of land actually required for streets. The area of land set aside for common open or recreational use may be included in determining the number of dwelling units permitted.
