A PUD approval may allow the following:
(A) Variety. Within a comprehensive site design concept, a mixture of land uses, housing types, and densities;
(B) Sensitivity. Through the departure from the strict application of required setbacks, yard areas, lot sizes, minimum house sizes, minimum requirements, and other performance standards associated with traditional zoning, a PUD can maximize the development potential of land while remaining sensitive to its unique and valuable natural characteristics;
(C) Efficiency. The consolidation of areas for recreation and reductions in street lengths and other utility-related expenses;
(D) Density transfer. The project density may be clustered, basing density on a number of units per acre in place of specific lot dimensions; and
(E) District integration. The combination of uses which are allowed in separate zoning districts such as:
(1) Mixed residential uses to allow both densities and unit types to be varied within the project;
(2) Mixed residential uses with increased density based upon the greater sensitivity of PUD projects to regulation; and
(3) Mixed land uses with the integration of compatible land uses within the project.
