124.21(A) Purpose of district.
124.21(A)(1) The
is intended to encourage the implementation of innovative land planning and site designs that create enhanced living and working environments by providing flexible land
and design regulations. A PDD would allow small- to large-scale areas to be developed with a variety of residential types and nonresidential
that may contain both individual
sites and common property, which are planned and developed as a unified district.
124.21(A)(2) The
to be designed and organized so as to be capable of satisfactory
and operation as a separate entity without necessarily needing the participation of other
sites or other common property in order to function as a neighborhood. This Section specifically encourages innovations so that the growing demands of residential and nonresidential
may be met by a greater variety in type, design, and siting of
and by the conservation and more efficient
of land. This Section shall also be utilized to protect, preserve, and enhance lands designated “Agriculture” by the certified Future Land Use Element of the City Comprehensive Plan through the adoption and enforcement of creative land development regulations.
124.21(A)(3) This Section recognizes that standard zoning and subdivision functions are appropriate for the regulation of land
in areas of neighborhoods that are already substantially developed. Therefore, where
concepts are appropriate, the land may be rezoned to a PDD District. In doing so, conventional
and dimensional specifications are replaced by an approval process in which an approved plan becomes the basis for continuing land
controls. This provides the mechanism by which the
may approve land
which meet or exceed the level of
quality required by adopted
zoning standards.

design flexibility to developers in order to encourage imaginative, functional, high quality
Planning. The
of this district shall be limited to those
projects which will result in desirable community Environmental qualities and
which is compatible with the surrounding lands and activities and consistent with the permitted
of the Comprehensive Plan.
