A. The purpose of the planned unit development provisions which follow is to promote efficient land patterns which provide site amenities; secure large parcels of permanent open space, characteristic of Sugar Grove's existing semirural environment; and preserve trees, wetlands and other natural resources.
B. These provisions are intended to encourage and accommodate more creative and imaginative design for land development than would otherwise be possible under the strict application of Sugar Grove's conventional zoning and subdivision ordinance provisions.
C. Implementation of this chapter will result in efficient land patterns and, therefore, more economical land development, that:
1. Fosters high quality development by allowing flexibility in land use and design standards, thereby encouraging innovative site planning;
2. Promotes more efficient land patterns, which not only preserve open space and natural resources, but also provide for more economical networks of utilities, streets and other facilities;
3. Promotes diverse, high quality, residential environments, which include a mixture of dwelling unit types;
4. Promotes a land use pattern with a mixture of residential and nonresidential uses that will mutually support each other;
5. Provides for the permanent preservation of open space for the continued use and enjoyment of residents of each subdivision and the Village;
6. Provides usable and suitably located public and private recreational facilities;
7. Encourages developers to provide amenities that enhance the quality of life, both within the planned unit development, as well as within the community as a whole;
8. Encourages a land use pattern which promotes the public health, safety, comfort, morals and welfare;
9. Allows more than one building per zoning lot, when determined to be of benefit to the residents of a proposed subdivision; and (Ord. 2002-01-15B, 1-15-2002)
10. Allows the creation of a mixed use residential, commercial, or industrial planned unit development, pursuant to criteria set forth in this chapter. (Ord. 2014-08-05B, 8-5-2014)
A. Planned unit developments are of such substantially different character from conventional subdivisions or development on individual zoning lots and, therefore, require administrative processing as special uses, under the provisions of section 11-13-12 of this title.
B. Because planned unit developments are complex and of a different character than other special uses, the Village has established more specific procedures and standards, and criteria for exceptions from regulations of the underlying zoning district than those included in chapter 13 of this title. Procedures, standards and criteria for exceptions which follow are intended to guide the recommendations of the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and Village Board during their review of preliminary and final plans. (Ord. 2002-01-15B, 1-15-2002; amd. Ord. 2018-03-20C, 3-20-2018)
Planned unit developments may include uses and structures not otherwise permitted in the underlying zoning district, provided landscape screening is provided between dissimilar land uses, and the petitioner shows the planned unit development: accomplishes the standards set forth in this chapter; achieves the planning goals and objectives of the Village, as defined in this chapter and the Comprehensive Land Use Plan; and is compatible with adjacent land uses.
A. Residential Planned Unit Developments:
1. A residential planned unit development may be processed for only one type of dwelling unit, but is intended to also allow a mixture of dwelling unit types, thereby offering a choice in lifestyle to residents of the development. Nonresidential land uses of a religious, institutional, cultural, recreational, or commercial character may be permitted in a residential planned unit development, to the extent that they can be integrated with the residential land use. Where provided, nonresidential uses in a residential planned unit development shall:
a. Reserved.
b. Be compatible in appearance and scale with the residential structures. They shall not be established prior to the construction of residential units, unless specifically authorized by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and the Village Board.
2. Residential developments in the E-1, R-1, R-2, R-3, and SR Districts shall be processed as planned unit developments when any of the following apply:
a. More than one dwelling unit type is proposed. Unless otherwise authorized by the Village Board, pursuant to recommendations of the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals, multi-family dwellings shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the total number of dwelling units proposed in a residential PUD. For the purpose of this chapter, "dwelling unit type" shall mean:

f. A multi-family development in the R-3 District consisting of three (3) acres or more is proposed.
g. A type 2 use is proposed in the SR District.
h. A mobile home park. Allowed only in E-1 Estate Residential.
B. Commercial Planned Unit Developments:
1. Commercial planned unit developments may include any of the permitted or special uses allowed in the B-1, B-2, and B-3 Districts, provided it can be demonstrated that the uses proposed are compatible with one another and with adjacent land uses. Commercial developments shall be encouraged to be processed as a planned unit development in order to:
a. Promote cooperative development of business centers with adequate off street parking, controlled access to highways and other thoroughfares.
b. Provide safe pedestrian linkages between businesses.
c. Aid in stabilizing property values.
d. Develop centers of such size and location as to be compatible with the market potential.
e. Buffer adjacent residential areas with landscape screening.
f. Foster harmonious architecture between adjacent commercial structures, and between homes and commercial structures.
g. Promote unified signage.
2. Commercial developments in the B-1, B-2, and B-3 Districts shall be processed as planned unit developments when any of the following apply:
a. More than one building is proposed on a zoning lot.
b. Any commercial development is proposed consisting of three (3) or more acres or includes more than one type of business use, such as retail, office and/or service uses.
c. More than one land use is proposed for the development (i.e., commercial, residential or institutional).
d. Uses more intense than those listed as permitted or special in the B-1, B-2, or B-3 District are proposed as part of the overall project.
3. Commercial planned unit developments shall comply with all standards of development identified in this chapter as well as those included in chapter 8 of this title.
C. Industrial Planned Unit Developments:
1. An industrial planned unit development may include any of the permitted or special uses allowed in the BP, OR-2, M-1, and I-1 Districts provided it can be demonstrated that the uses proposed are compatible with one another and with adjacent land uses. Industrial developments shall be encouraged to be processed as planned unit developments in order to:
a. Promote the establishment of industrial or business parks.
b. Permit the grouping of industrial buildings with integrated design and a coordinated development plan.
c. Buffer adjacent residential areas with landscape screening.
2. Industrial or business developments in the BP, OR-2, M-1, and I-1 Districts shall be processed as a planned unit development when any of the following apply:
a. More than one building is proposed on a zoning lot.
b. Any industrial development is proposed consisting of ten (10) or more acres.
c. The development is proposed with uses listed as permitted or special uses in one of the four (4) applicable districts in addition to uses listed as permitted or special uses in at least one other of the four (4) applicable districts.
d. The planned unit development will include commercial or other support services not listed in the M-1 District that warrant special consideration by the Village Board to assure that potential hazards associated with integrating large trucks and customers or employees in motor vehicles are minimized.
3. Industrial planned unit developments shall comply with all standards of development identified in this chapter, as well as chapters 9 and 10 of this title, as applicable. (Ord. 2002-01-15B, 1-15-2002; amd. Ord. 2014-08-05B, 8-5-2014; Ord. 2016-10-18A, 10-18-2016; Ord. 2018-03-20C, 3-20-2018)
A. General:
1. Traditional development controls, as set forth in the zoning and subdivision ordinances, may restrict imaginative development. Therefore, it is the intent of these provisions to permit review of integrated site proposals on their own merits, where they afford the Village amenities and benefits that enhance the quality of life due to unified planning and design.
2. These provisions are not intended, and shall not be used, as a means to circumvent the procedures or standards of the zoning and subdivision control ordinances, and thereby allow a lower standard of development than otherwise permitted under the strict interpretation of these codes. Rather, they are intended to take advantage of particular site characteristics, to increase the flexibility and originality of design in large scale projects, to provide more open space and recreational opportunities than would otherwise be required, to promote the protection of high quality natural resources, and to establish better transitions between dissimilar land uses.
3. The unique characteristics of the area, and the uniqueness of the approach to development, will determine the degree of flexibility afforded from regulations of the underlying zoning district.
B. Standards: Unless otherwise approved by the Village Board, pursuant to recommendations of the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals, the following standards shall apply. Approval of exceptions from these standards is intended to be granted only when it is determined appropriate or necessary to achieve one of the objectives of section 11-11-1 of this chapter:
1. Ownership: The proposed planned unit development shall be under the unified control of the petitioner.
2. Comprehensive Plan: The proposed planned unit development shall conform to the land uses, intent, and spirit of the comprehensive plan and other planning objectives established for the Village.
3. Compatibility: Uses permitted in a planned unit development shall be compatible with surrounding land uses.
4. Subdivided: Unless otherwise approved by the Village Board, only one principal building shall be constructed per parcel. Preliminary and final plats of subdivision shall be required in accordance with procedures set forth in the Subdivision Code, as may be amended from time to time.
5. Yards: The required yards along the periphery of a planned unit development shall be at least equal in depth to those of the underlying zoning district, or the adjacent zoning district, whichever is greater. The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals may recommend greater setbacks from the boundary line of a planned unit development when determined necessary to protect the privacy of residents in both existing and proposed subdivisions.
6. Landscaping: At a minimum, the proposed planned unit development shall conform to the landscaping requirements set forth in this title. The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals may recommend landscaping in excess of these minimum standards where determined necessary to achieve the objectives set forth in this chapter.
7. Sidewalks: Sidewalks shall be constructed as required by the Village Engineer in residential, commercial, and industrial planned unit developments. In addition, walks shall be provided for convenient access for pedestrians between residential blocks and cul-de-sacs, as well as between differing land uses.
8. Public Streets:
a. All streets shall be publicly dedicated, and constructed in accordance with applicable standards contained in the Subdivision Code, as may be amended from time to time.
b. The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals may recommend, and the Village Board approve, reduced rights-of-way or pavement width in residential subdivisions, but only in those instances where documentation is submitted that shows proposed widths will accommodate anticipated traffic associated with the planned unit development, as well as traffic that is expected to be generated by existing and planned development in the vicinity of the proposed project.
9. Vehicular Access: Points of vehicular ingress and egress to the site shall be minimized to maintain the safety and operational efficiency of arterial streets and collector roadways. Where possible, cross access between properties shall be provided.
10. Screening: Where a nonresidential use abuts a residential use, landscape screening shall be provided. Screening shall be a minimum of six feet (6') in height, and shall include evergreen trees, not less than six feet (6') tall. Screening may also include walls, fences, berms, deciduous and ornamental trees, shrubs, or any combination thereof, in addition to the required evergreen trees.
11. Underground Utilities: All utilities (including electric, telephone, gas and cable TV) shall be installed underground.
12. Tree Replacement/Mitigation: Where determined appropriate by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals, trees greater than six inches (6") in caliper, as measured six inches (6") in diameter at breast height (dbh), which are identified to be removed for construction shall be replaced in accordance with a tree replacement plan that is subject to review by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and approval by the Village Board:
a. The tree preservation plan shall show:
(1) Protective fencing planned to be installed around the critical root zone of those trees identified for preservation, on both grading and landscape plans.
(2) Trees that will have their roots pruned by a certified arborist, to avoid tearing and other damage during construction.
(3) Locations where limestone and other materials that might negatively affect trees planned to be preserved will be stored on the property.
b. Where it is determined that trees six inches (6") dbh or greater must be removed to allow for proposed development, tree replacement will be required:
(1) Not less than one (1) 3-inch caliper tree shall be required for each six inches (6") of tree proposed to be removed, as measured at breast height. However, in no instance shall more than three (3) 3-inch caliper replacement trees be required for any tree removed.
(2) Replacement trees shall be required in addition to any other landscaping that may be required by this title, except landscape screening. In this instance replacement trees can be used for screening a planned unit development and properties planned, zoned or used for residential purposes.
(3) The number of trees that an individual property can support, according to good forestry practices, shall determine the number of replacement trees that will be required on an individual lot.
13. Performance Standards: All activities associated with a commercial, industrial, or mixed use planned unit development shall conform to standards established by the Illinois Pollution Control Board or the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, as may be amended from time to time, for noise, vibration, glare, odor, heat, etc.
14. Preliminary Approval: Preliminary approval of a planned unit development by the Village Board shall be null and void in the event that the petitioner has failed to obtain final planned unit development approval for at least the first phase of the development within eighteen (18) months of the date of the preliminary approval.
15. Completion: The planned unit development shall be substantially completed within the period of time specified by the petitioner, unless an extension is requested by the petitioner and approved by the Village Board. All planned unit development phases shall be completed within two (2) years of final planned unit development approval for that phase, except when the size or complexity dictates a longer period, as may be granted by the Village Board, upon request by the petitioner.
16. Compliance With Zoning Or Other Codes And Ordinances: Where there is a conflict, or difference between the provisions of this chapter and those of other chapters of this title, or other codes and ordinances, the provisions of this chapter shall prevail. Except as otherwise set forth herein, all other applicable Village Code provisions shall apply.
17. Exceptions: The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals may recommend, and the Village Board approve, exceptions to standards and criteria as part of a planned unit development, when determined necessary to achieve the planning objectives set forth in this chapter.
18. Natural Features: Natural features worthy of preservation within the planned development district shall be identified on preliminary and final plans and shall be left unimproved. Where parks and environmental corridors illustrated on the land use plan pass through a proposed planned development district, that land shall be perpetually preserved in a manner prescribed by the Village Board. (Ord. 2002-01-15B, 1-15-2002; amd. Ord. 2014-08-05B, 8-5-2014; Ord. 2018-03-20C, 3-20-2018)
The following is applicable to residential developments, with the exception of those which would be exclusively SR District uses:
A. Environmental Corridors/Open Space: Open space shall be provided for Village residents in the form of parks, corridors, open space and recreational facilities, consistent with regulatory and policy directives of the Village Board and the provisions of this chapter:
1. Unless otherwise recommended by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and approved by the Village Board, not less than forty percent (40%) of the land within a residential planned unit development shall be reserved and designated as open space, greenbelt and/or recreational facilities.
2. Where parks and environmental corridors illustrated on the land use plan pass through a proposed residential subdivision, land, in lieu of cash, shall be provided in instances where the Village Board has determined that the dedication of land in these areas is essential for implementing the continuous environmental corridor and open space system adopted as part of the Sugar Grove comprehensive land use plan.
3. Designated open space, environmental corridors or public recreational facilities reserved under a planned unit development shall be held and maintained by a homeowners' association, unless conveyed to a public authority approved by the Village Board.
4. All designated open space, environmental corridors and/or recreational facilities shall be dedicated as open space in perpetuity, and shall be so designated in the development ordinance and final plat of subdivision(s) recorded for the planned unit development.
5. The cost for improving open space or environmental corridors, or constructing recreational facilities proposed as part of a planned unit development, shall be included in the letter of credit or other surety required for the public or quasi-public improvements as more fully described in the Subdivision Code.
6. Open space shall be suitably improved for its intended use. However, open space containing natural features worthy of preservation, including traditional agricultural uses, may be left unimproved:
a. Agricultural lands may continue to be farmed.
b. Where they are provided, buildings, structures, and improvements approved for construction shall be compatible in design with dwellings approved for the planned unit development.
7. No portion of a planned unit development shall be conveyed or dedicated as public open space, environmental corridor or recreational use or facility to any public body until such conveyance or dedication is reviewed by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and approved by the Village Board.
8. For the purpose of this chapter, recreational facilities and open space provided as part of the planned unit development shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
a. Agricultural lands.
b. Community center.
c. Environmental corridors/greenbelts.
d. Golf courses.
e. Health clubs.
f. High quality native plant communities, such as oak savannas and prairies.
g. Historic and archaeological sites.
h. Jogging trails.
i. Major stands of trees or woodlots.
j. Parks that are sized and improved according to NPRA Standards.
k. Physical fitness courses.
l. Scenic areas.
m. Surface waters, including streams, lakes and ponds.
n. Swimming pools.
o. Tennis courts.
p. Wetlands, floodplains and stormwater retention or detention ponds, provided they are improved with trails and landscaping.
B. Density Transfer, Residential Planned Unit Developments:
1. Where a minimum of forty percent (40%) of a parcel is set aside for open space and/or recreational facilities, the following shall apply:
a. The gross residential density allowed by the underlying zoning district on land proposed for open space or recreation may be transferred to the remaining net developable acreage.
b. The net developable acres exclude open space, recreation, environmental corridors, greenbelts, natural features and street rights-of-way. For the purpose of this chapter, fifteen percent (15%) of the gross acres of a planned unit development will be set aside for street rights-of-way and easements.
2. The Village finds that at least forty percent (40%) of a property should be set aside as permanent open space in order to break the cycle of "wall to wall houselots", provide amenities for Village residents, and maintain the rural character that is valued by both residents and Municipal officials. Accordingly, allowable densities set forth in the underlying zoning district shall be reduced by fifty percent (50%), if open space is not provided as part of a residential planned unit development according to tables 1, 2 and 3 of this section that follow.
3. The average lot size for estate residential planned unit developments and the maximum number of units per net acre for low density residential planned unit developments, and medium density residential planned unit developments are identified in tables 1, 2, and 3 of this section respectively.
a. Both the average lot size in an estate residential planned unit development and the maximum number of units per net acre in a low density, medium density, or high density residential planned unit development are based upon the net developable acres which remain after land for open space, recreation, and street rights-of-way are subtracted from the gross acreage.
b. Subsection C of this section identifies the minimum lot size that will be allowed for each type of residential dwelling unit each of the four (4) residential planned unit developments.

C. Minimum Lot Size: Minimum lot size shall be as set forth in chapter 7 of this title, unless forty percent (40%) or more of the total gross acres of a property has been set aside for: active recreational areas and/or facilities; open space; or preservation of major stands of trees, or other natural areas. The Village finds that flexibility in its standards are warranted only when such amenities are proposed as part of a planned unit development.
1. Estate Residential Planned Unit Development: In an estate residential planned unit development, the minimum lot size shall not be less than sixteen thousand five hundred (16,500) square feet.
2. Low Density Residential Planned Unit Development:
a. A low density residential planned unit development shall be limited to single-family detached dwellings, as defined in this title.
b. Unless otherwise recommended by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and approved by the Village Board, the net lot size for single-family detached dwellings shall not be reduced below eight thousand seven hundred fifty (8,750) square feet.
c. The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals may recommend, and the Village Board may require minimum lot sizes for single- family detached dwellings that are larger than the minimum sizes presented above, if determined necessary to achieve the objectives of the land use plan or those of this title.
3. Medium Density Residential Planned Unit Development:
a. The medium density residential planned unit development may consist of a mixture of dwelling unit types, including single- family detached dwellings, single-family attached dwellings, and multi-family dwellings, as defined in this title.
b. Unless otherwise recommended by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and approved by the Village Board, the net lot size for single-family detached dwellings, or net lot area for each single-family attached dwelling, and multi-family dwelling shall not be less than the following:
(1) Single-family detached dwelling: Eight thousand seven hundred fifty (8,750) square feet.
(2) Single-family attached dwelling: Three thousand seven hundred fifty (3,750) square feet.
(3) Multi-family dwelling: Two thousand seven hundred fifty (2,750) square feet.
c. The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals may recommend, and the Village Board may require minimum lot sizes or net lot area for single-family and/or multi-family dwellings that are larger than minimum sizes listed above, if determined necessary to achieve the objectives of the land use plan or those of this chapter.
D. Design: Dwellings in a residential planned unit development shall be designed to blend with the landscape of which they are a part. Both visual and acoustical privacy for residents shall be provided by means of site and architectural design. The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals will require architectural controls to set guidelines and standards for such planned unit developments, to create harmony between the architectural style of dwellings and avoid monotony.
E. Landscape Requirements: The following shall be the minimum landscape requirements for planned unit developments:
1. Street Tree Plantings: Not less than one (1) 21/2-inch caliper shade tree per fifty (50) linear feet shall be installed in the rights-of-way along all streets in a residential planned unit development. Where the right-of-way is not sufficiently wide to accommodate required tree plantings, trees shall be installed in the front yard.
2. Landscape Easements: A minimum forty foot (40') landscape easement shall be installed along the perimeter of residential planned unit developments adjacent to any public right-of-way and/or any other boundary line as required by the Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and Village Board. Plantings shall be sufficient in number and size to provide buffering:
a. Where possible, the easement shall be bermed, with slopes averaging four to one (4:1), but in no case greater than three to one (3:1).
b. Not less than three (3) shade trees, three (3) ornamental trees, five (5) evergreen trees and twenty (20) shrubs shall be installed for each one hundred (100) linear feet. Minimum sizes shall be as follows:
Shade trees | 2.5 inch caliper |
Evergreen trees | 6 feet to 10 feet tall (average 8 feet) |
Ornamental trees | 8 feet tall |
c. Fencing shall be required to be installed on the resident side of the easement, rather than the public right-of-way, and along the toe of the slope of the berm, so that landscaping is the dominant visual element along the public street. Where fencing is proposed on individual single-family residential lots, the design, height, and color of said fencing shall be the same.
d. Unless otherwise approved by the Village Board, the landscape easement shall be deemed common area of the residential planned unit development, and maintained by a homeowners' association or management agency. Where rental units are included as part of a residential planned unit development, a credentialed management agency shall be employed to manage the rental units for the life of the units.
3. Detention/Retention Ponds:
a. All detention and retention basins shall be suitably landscaped with a variety of plant material, so they fit within the context of their environment. Deciduous shade trees shall measure at least two and one-half inch (21/2") caliper in size, and evergreen and ornamental trees not less than six feet (6') in height at the time of planting.
b. The Planning Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals and Village Board may require the construction of paths and the provision of benches around dry bottom or wet ponds, in addition to landscaping, so that they may be enjoyed by residents of the planned unit development.
4. Foundation Plantings:
a. Single-Family Detached, Two-Family, Patio Homes, And Mobile Homes: Not less than one (1) 21/2-inch shade, or six foot (6') tall ornamental or evergreen tree, and five (5) shrubs shall be installed in the front or corner side yard of a single-family detached dwelling, two-family dwelling, patio home or mobile home.
b. Other Dwelling Unit Types:
(1) Landscaping shall be installed in sufficient quantities to provide privacy for residents of dwelling units and reduce the scale of the larger, multiple-family dwellings.
(2) Deciduous shade trees shall be at least two and one-half inches (21/2") in caliper, and evergreen and ornamental trees not less than six feet (6') tall. Larger size trees than the minimum required shall be interspersed throughout the planned unit development to provide a diversity in landscape and enhance the quality of life for residents of the medium or high density PUD.
5. Parking Lot:
a. Regulated by chapter 12 of this title.
F. Additional Standards For Mobile Home Parks:
1. Minimum zoning lot for mobile home park: Ten (10) acres.
2. Minimum mobile home site: Six thousand (6,000) square feet.
3. Minimum mobile home site street yard: Ten feet (10').
