The following plans shall be required as a part of the processing of any development application for any property within the PUD:
A. Master Redevelopment Concept Plan: Prior to development/redevelopment of any portion of the Valley West Mall property, a detailed master plan of the entire PUD parcel is required to be submitted to and be approved by the city.
The master plan shall provide general ideas and details for the coordination of vehicle, transit, bike and pedestrian transportation networks, uses and building locations and relationships, parking areas and/or facilities, storm water management areas and measures (e.g., detention pond, retention pond, under-ground storage, etc.), planned open space and/or recreation areas or elements, and streetscape or development unifying themes and elements. The specifics of the master plan are intended to demonstrate unity and continuity between the various areas within the overall PUD area. The master plan is intended to provide a good understanding of the intended redevelopment plan and opportunities; however, it is recognized that adjustments and changes in building locations, footprints and layout, including the combining of multiple 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 building areas 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 intent, 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 later development.
B. Platting: Should it be desired that individual lots be created, the property shall be platted in accordance with the city's subdivision ordinance and compliant with associated zoning regulations unless otherwise modified within this ordinance. Lots without public street frontage may be allowed with the execution of appropriate cross access easements which provide for the unrestricted use and access of all vehicle drives across and through all property within the Valley West Mall property. Platted outlots intended for future private development must be re-platted through the preliminary and final plat process prior to physical development.
C. Development Applications: With the exception of demolition and site grading when done as part of City approved Demolition Permit and Grading Plan(s), site plans shall be submitted to the City of West Des Moines for review and approval prior to any physical site development/redevelopment of any portion of the PUD property. If not previously completed as part of an amendment to this ordinance in response to the provision of the required master redevelopment concept plan, an amendment to the Valley West Mall PUD Ordinance will be required to bring consistency between the ordinance and the proposed site development. Subsequent to an ordinance amendment in conjunction with approval of the master redevelopment concept plan, at the discretion of the Development Services Director, an amendment to this ordinance, including an amendment to the PUD's Sketch Plan may be required to bring consistency between the PUD and specific intended site development.
