Prior to or in conjunction with development or transfer of ownership of any portion of the property covered by this PUD, the following plans shall be required:
A. Master Plan: A general conceptual layout of the two major roadways within the Pavilion Park PUD is indicated on the PUD Sketch Plan Map and generally used to divide the ground included within the PUD into development parcels. It is acknowledged that a supporting network of roadways will be necessary to properly develop the PUD area. Prior to development of any portion of a PUD parcel, a detailed master plan of the entire PUD parcel shall be required. The master plan shall provide details for the coordination of the vehicle, bike and pedestrian transportation network, building architecture themes, locations and relationships, utility networks (storm, sanitary, water, and fiber), parking facilities, storm water management measures, open space and recreation areas, buffering, landscape and streetscape themes, and environmentally sensitive areas to be preserved within each parcel. The specifics of each master plan are intended to provide unity and continuity between the various developments within each PUD parcel and the overall PUD. Development of later master plans, as well as modifications to previously approved master plans, shall respect the elements established in the earlier master plan(s). The master plan for each parcel, and any later amendments necessary for on-going development, shall be reviewed and approved as a public hearing matter by the City Council, after receiving a recommendation from the Plan and Zoning Commission, prior to initial or on-going development. It is recognized that modifications and changes in building footprints and layout, including the combining of two (2) smaller buildings into one larger building, may be necessary in response to market demands and specific tenants. Additionally, unless otherwise specifically restricted within this ordinance, it is recognized that square footages of buildings may either be shifted from one building to another or increased or decreased to accommodate specific users' needs. Assuming adequate sanitary sewer and water infrastructure, these changes may be allowed if the shift does not drastically alter the master plan concept, traffic patterns or result in an increase to the total number of vehicle trips anticipated to be generated within the PUD parcel. At the discretion of the Director of Development Services, an amendment to an approved master plan may be required to bring consistency between the master plan and intended development.
With the exception of grading when done as part of City approved Grading Plans, prior to any site work occurring on a parcel, an amendment to the Pavilion Park PUD Ordinance shall be required along with review of a master plan for the PUD parcel to establish specific site development regulations, allowances and prohibitions to be applied to all development proposals within a subject PUD parcel.
B. Preliminary Plat and Final Plat: All ground within the PUD shall be platted in accordance with the City's Subdivision Ordinance and associated zoning regulations unless otherwise modified within this ordinance. Platted outlots intended for future private development must be re-platted through the preliminary and final plat process prior to physical development. Outlots intended to provide for public utilities, storm water management, or publicly owned or accessible park ground, greenways, or other recreational amenities are not required to be replatted prior to development. Outlots within a plat shall have the proposed use clearly designated on the plat document.
C. Development Applications (Site Plans): With the exception of individual single-family detached residential lots, site plans shall be submitted to the City of West Des Moines for review and approval prior to any physical site development. Site Plans must meet the intent of the approved master plans. At the discretion of the Director of Development Services, an amendment to the Pavilion Park PUD Ordinance and/or master plan may be required to bring consistency between the ordinance and/or master plan and the proposed site development.
Unless otherwise specifically restricted by the City Council, ground work and construction of private roads and utilities may be started, at the developer's risk, upon approval of the preliminary plat by the City Council; however, no construction of structures, including footing and foundations shall be allowed prior to site plan and final plat approval. Public street and utility construction may begin, at the sole risk of the developer, after approval of the preliminary plat by the City Council and Public Improvement Plans by the City of West Des Moines.
