THOROUGHFARE DISTRICT (THOR)
§ 155.165 PURPOSE.
   The Thoroughfare District is designed to provide for the diverse uses that can take advantage of the access provided by a major arterial or freeway, without sacrificing the integrity of the thoroughfare or freeway in its primary function as a means of moving vehicular traffic through the community. This district is established to create an attractive, higher intensity use corridor composed primarily of office, retail, limited light industrial and commercial uses, hotels, motels and restaurants. To protect the integrity of the thoroughfare, minimum lot sizes will be larger, setback requirements will be greater, and more stringent access restrictions will be imposed in the THOR District than in other commercial and Industrial districts. The THOR District should have increased water, sewer and drainage capacity, and increased fire protection to accommodate the higher intensity uses typically found in the district. The THOR District is an overlay district, meaning that the regulations within the district are in addition to the base district that is being overlaid.

PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT (PD)
§ 155.180 GENERAL PURPOSE ANDDESCRIPTION.
   The Planned Development District ,(PD) prefix is intended to provide for combining and mixing of uses allowed in various districts with appropriate regulations and to permit flexibility in the use and design of land and buildings in situations where modification of specific provisions of this chapter is not contrary to its intent and purpose or significantly inconsistent with the planning on which it is based and will not be harmful to the community. A PD District may be used to permit new and innovative concepts in land utilization. While great flexibility is given to provide special restrictions which will allow development not otherwise permitted, procedures are established herein to ensure against misuse of the increased flexibility.
