[Ord. No. 18-12, 12-11-2018]

Purpose. The purpose of the "AG" Agricultural District is to provide areas for agricultural uses which do not include extensive commercial or industrial accessory uses, to provide for land uses requiring large amounts of land, and to provide large lots for residential uses with agriculturally related accessory uses such as the breeding, raising and keeping of one (1) or more varieties of animals. The "AG" District is considered consistent with and designed to implement the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan for land designated as Rural Residential on the Future Land Use Map. The "AG" District may also be established in areas of the City designated as Single Family or Village Center on the Future Land Use Map if the property is devoted to agricultural use on the effective date of this Chapter.

Permitted Uses. The "AG" District is designed to allow considerable latitude in the range of agricultural uses allowed provided that the uses are legal and that certain agricultural activities maintain a reasonable setback from adjacent residentially zoned property. The Land Use Table included in the Appendix A lists the uses permitted in the "AG" District.

Administrative Permit Uses. Administrative permit uses related to telecommunications may be allowed in the "AG" District based on the criteria in Section 405.220 and the provisions of Section 405.175.

Conditional Uses. The Board of Aldermen may authorize conditional use permits for uses designated as "conditional uses" on the Land Use Table (Appendix A) subject to the procedures established in Article IX and all other applicable regulations.

Dimensional Requirements. The bulk and height of buildings allowed in the "PR" District shall be appropriate for the particular parcel on which they are located, shall be consistent with the character of surrounding developments and the purposes of the "PR" District, shall not adversely impact surrounding land uses, and shall not pose a public safety risk. In determining appropriate building bulk and height, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Board of Aldermen shall consider the size of the development tract, neighboring land uses, factors relating to the appropriateness of the specific site conditions, compliance with other development standards including the following dimensional guidelines:

Section 405.110 "PC" Planned Commercial District.

[Ord. No. 18-12, 12-11-2018]

Purpose. The purpose of the "PC" Planned Commercial District is to provide elements of flexibility in the design, placement, arrangement, bulk and other considerations that maximizes the utilization and aesthetics of the site; to provide a framework within which the structures and uses in the planned district may be interrelated with the adjacent built and natural character of the area; and to maintain the desired overall intensity of land use, desired population densities, and desired areas of green space. The "PC" District includes flexible standards and limited restrictions to allow more freedom in the design, use and layout of sites in locations where, because of conflicts with adjoining uses, infrastructure, natural resources, or conditions of the site, more development control and flexibility (than that afforded in other districts) is necessary. The "PC" District is intended to implement the City's Comprehensive Plan for land that is designated as "High Tech," "Commercial," "Village Center" and "Old Town" on the Future Land Use Map and also includes parcels with highway access. The intent is to encourage the development of professional office parks and the efficient use of small tracts of land while fostering innovative and imaginative site planning, and resource conservation and adhere to the following objectives:

Ensure consistency with the Comprehensive Plan.

Promote building styles and architectural design that complement one (1) another and are harmonious with the surroundings.

Promote more efficient use of land by carefully considering the arrangement of buildings, green space, circulation systems, and compatibility of uses to minimize potential conflicts and negative land use externalities.

Integrate natural features such as topography, trees, vegetation, and water features into the design so they become assets to the development and provide natural buffers and screening from adjacent residential uses.

Permitted Uses. The uses permitted in the "PC" District are provided on the Land Use Table included herein as Appendix A subject to approval of an ordinance authorizing the establishment of the "PC" District and setting forth the permitted uses, the performance standards governing those uses, and other conditions of development in accordance with this Chapter.

Conditional Uses. The conditional uses permitted in the "PC" District are provided on the Land Use Table included herein as Appendix A and subject to the procedures established in Subsection (G) herein, Article IX, Section 405.225 (Standards for Conditional Uses), the governing ordinance, and all other applicable regulations.

Accessory Uses And Structures. Uses and structures customarily accessory to a permitted use may be allowed subject to Section 405.165, Section 405.215 and conditions of the governing ordinance.

Planned District Procedures. Approval of an Area Plan, final site/section plan via ordinance by the Board of Aldermen shall be required for all proposed developments within the "PC" District in accordance with Article X. All building regulations set forth herein shall be considered and enforced through the site plan approval process.

Dimensional Requirements. The bulk and height of buildings allowed in the "PC" District shall be appropriate for the particular parcel on which they are located, shall be consistent with the character of surrounding developments and the purposes of the "PC" District, shall not adversely impact surrounding land uses, and shall not pose a public safety risk. In determining appropriate building bulk and height, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Board of Aldermen shall consider the size of the parcel on which the building(s) is to be located, neighboring land uses, the size, scale and mass of buildings within the "PC" District, the appropriateness of the building at the proposed location, and the following dimensional regulations:
