In Commercial Districts, a planned unit development may be permitted in accordance with the provisions of the Village Zoning Code and is subject to all limitations as set forth therein.
(a) Commercial buildings and establishments shall be planned as groups having common parking areas and common ingress and egress points in order to reduce the number of potential accident locations at intersections with thoroughfares. In planning these groups of buildings or establishments, no yard space will be required between uses within the groups; however, the yard requirements must be observed at the edge of the complete development. Planting screens or fences as provided elsewhere in this ordinance shall be required.
(b) Off-street parking and loading requirements shall be observed as required; however, group parking is recommended so long as the number of spaces provided is equal to the required number of spaces required for each use to be developed.
(c) The plan of the project shall provide for the integrated and harmonious design of buildings, and for adequate and properly arranged facilities for internal traffic circulation, landscaping, and such other features and facilities as may be necessary to make the project attractive and efficient from the standpoint of the developer as well as from the standpoint of the adjoining and surrounding existing or potential developments.
(d) The ground area occupied by all the buildings shall not exceed in the aggregate 24 percent of the total area of the lot or tract.
