(a) The purpose of Planned Unit Development is to promote variety, flexibility and quality for the development of properties in the City of Worthington. Planned Unit Development allows for more creative planning and design, and enables a greater range of uses than traditional Zoning regulations. Planned Unit Development allows for the design and mix of uses necessary to meet changing economic and demographic demands; permits implementation of development standards, plans, studies, and guidelines adopted by the City Council; and provides the opportunity to retain and enhance the character of the City, and the health, safety and general welfare of the inhabitants.
(b) Planned Unit Development is a process to create a Planned Use District (PUD) in which development standards and uses are established for a Lot or Lots, and becomes the Zoning for the property. (Ord. 04-2013. Passed 2-19-13.)
