The Conditional District Planned Development Districts are intended to allow a diverse mixture of residential and/or nonresidential uses and structures that function as cohesive and unified projects. The districts encourage innovation by allowing flexibility in permitted use, design, and layout requirements in accordance with a concept plan. Projects should provide opportunities for employment and services closer to residences. Factors that must be considered include accessible open space, recreational facilities, traffic patterns, neighborhood screening, and adjoining neighborhood impacts (see Article 12 for established standards).
