Site plan approval is required for all construction or conversion in an Industrial District.
(5) 
Buffer zone.
(a) 
Wherever an I District is located adjacent to any Residential District, a buffer setback at least 30 feet in width must be provided on those lands in the I District along the full length of the adjacency.
(b) 
The buffer zone may be concurrent with side and rear yard setbacks.
(c) 
No parking or other improvements shall be permitted in the buffer zone.
J. 
PRD District: Planned Residential Development District. The following regulations shall apply in the PRD Planned Residential District:
(1) 
General requirements for Planned Residential Development Districts.
(a) 
Intent.
[1] 
It is the intent of this Planned Residential Development (PRD) District to develop flexible land use and design regulations through the use of performance criteria so that small-to-large-scale neighborhoods or portions thereof may be developed within the Village that incorporate residential land uses and contain both individual building sites and common property which are planned and developed as a unit.
[2] 
This article recognizes that while the standard zoning function (use and bulk) and the subdivision function (planting and design) are appropriate for the regulation of land use and areas or neighborhoods that are already substantially developed, these controls represent a type of preregulation, regulatory rigidity and uniformity which may be inimical to the techniques of land development contained in the planned residential concept. Further, this subsection recognizes that a rigid set of space requirements along with bulk specifications would frustrate the application of this concept. Thus, where PRD techniques are deemed appropriate through rezoning of land through to a Planned Residential Development District by the Village Board, the set of use and dimensional specifications elsewhere in this chapter is herein replaced by an approval in which an approved plan becomes the basis for continuing land use controls.
(b) 
Minimum area. Under normal circumstances, the minimum area required to qualify for a Planned Residential Development District shall be 50 contiguous acres of land. Where it can be demonstrated that the characteristics of the holdings will meet the objectives of a planned development, the Village Board may consider projects with less acreage.
(c) 
Ownership. The tract of land for a project may be owned, leased or controlled either by a single person or corporation or by a group of individuals or corporations. An application must be filed by the owner or jointly by owners of all property included in a project. In the case of multiple ownership, the approved plan shall be binding on all owners or their successors in title and interest.
(d) 
Permitted uses. All uses within an area designated as a PRD District are determined by the provisions of this subsection and the approved plan of the project concerned.
[1] 
Residential uses. Residences must be either single-family detached dwelling units, townhouses or cluster units.
[2] 
Customary accessory or associated uses, such as private garages, storage sheds, storage spaces, recreational and community structures and facilities, churches, schools, parks, and playgrounds, shall be permitted as appropriate to the PRD.
[Amended 10-12-1999 by L.L. No. 5-1999]
(e) 
Height limit. The maximum height for any building or structure as measured from ground level at any point of measurement around the building or structure shall be 35 feet.
[Amended 6-22-2015 by L.L. No. 2-2015]
(f) 
Required lot area (density). Single-family detached dwelling unit lot area shall not be less than 30,000 square feet. Attached dwellings or townhouses shall not be more than four to the developable acre.
(g) 
Percentage of lot coverage. All buildings, including accessory buildings, shall not cover more than 30% of the acre of the lot.
(h) 
Yards. The minimum setbacks required for the front, side and rear yards for each lot shall be established by the Village Board of Trustees at the time it creates the PRD District. The following guidelines are provided for reference in evaluating proposed setbacks in PRD Districts:
[Amended 6-22-2015 by L.L. No. 2-2015]
[1] 
Front yard depth: 50 feet.
[2] 
Each side yard width: 20 feet.
[3] 
Rear yard depth: 50 feet.
(i) 
Minimum lot width. The minimum lot width shall be established by the Board of Trustees at the time it creates the PRD District. A guideline of 120 feet shall be utilized as a reference in evaluating a proposed plan.
[Amended 6-22-2015 by L.L. No. 2-2015]
(j) 
Off-street parking. At least two parking spaces shall be provided for each dwelling unit.
(k) 
Signs. All signs shall be permitted in accordance with Chapter 187 of the Fayetteville Code.[15]
[Amended 2-22-1993 by L.L. No. 2-1993]
[15]
Editor's Note: See Art. VI, Signs, of this chapter.
(l) 
Open space requirements. Dedication or reservation of usable land for public open space shall be required for all subdivisions and planned residential developments. A minimum of 20% of the gross area of subdivisions and planned residential developments shall be dedicated for developed open space primarily for the use of residents within the subdivision or the planned residential development.
(2) 
Planned residential development districting shall be conditioned upon the following:
(a) 
Securing of final site plan approval. For these purposes, the site plan approval process shall be undertaken by the Planning Board pursuant to its subdivision regulations as if the PRD District were a subdivision.[16]
[16]
Editor's Note: See Ch. 151, Subdivision of Land.
(b) 
Compliance with all additional conditions and requirements as may be set forth by the Village Board in its resolution granting the Planned Residential Development District.
K. 
O District: Open Lands. This district represents lands so located as to be subject to flooding conditions or other special ecological considerations and shall have no structures of a permanent nature erected thereon. [17]
[17]
Editor's Note: Former Subsections I, O District: Open Lands, and J, P Districts: Municipal Lands, were redesignated as Subsections K and L, respectively, pursuant to other lettering changes in L.L. No. 4-1991.
L. 
P Districts: Public or Municipal Lands. This district represents those lands located within the Village and owned by the Village or another municipality for municipal or park purposes as may be designated on the Zoning Map.
[Amended 7-22-1991 by L.L. No. 4-1991[18]]
[18]
Editor's Note: Former Subsections I, O District: Open Lands, and J, P Districts: Municipal Lands, were redesignated as Subsections K and L, respectively, pursuant to other lettering changes in L.L. No. 4-1991.
M. 
Planned Unit Development Districts (PUDs). The purpose of a Planned Unit Development District is to permit establishment of areas in which diverse uses may be brought together in a compatible and unified plan of development which shall be in the interest of the general welfare of the public. A PUD District may permit the combination of residential and nonresidential uses in a single district where that combination enhances the general welfare of the community. The PUD is intended to promote site design and land use flexibility not feasible in other zoning districts, such as where a project combines multiple uses that could not permissibly coexist in any other single zoning district. A PUD is proper where the uses proposed will not be detrimental to present and potential surrounding uses, but will have a beneficial effect that could not be achieved under any other district. In Planned Unit Development Districts, land and structures may be used for any lawful purpose in accordance with the provisions set forth herein.
[Added 5-13-2013 by L.L. No. 5-2013]
(1)

(e) 
Dimensional requirements for the district shall be as determined and specified by the Planning Board upon site plan approval.
(f) 
Signage for the district shall be as determined and specified by the Planning Board upon site plan approval.
(3) 
Application and approval procedure.
(a) 
Pre-application conference. The applicant shall meet informally with the Code Enforcement Officer, the Planning Board Chairperson or a designated member of the Planning Board, and the Mayor or a designated Village Trustee, to discuss the appropriateness of a proposed PUD and any items that should be addressed with the preparation of the PUD application.
(b) 
Application. All applications for a zone change to a PUD District shall be initiated by submitting an application form, application fee, and sketch plan to the Village Board. The sketch plan shall demonstrate the proposed district boundary and the boundaries of the use areas within the district, indicating for each such use its general extent, size and composition. The Village Board shall have discretion to accept or decline the application.
(c) 
PUD plan. If the Village Board accepts an application, such application shall be referred to the Planning Board for its review. In order to allow the Planning Board and the developer to reach an understanding on basic design requirements prior to detailed design investment, the applicant shall submit a PUD plan of the proposal to the Planning Board. The PUD plan shall be approximately to scale, although it need not be to the precision of a finished engineering drawing, and it shall clearly show the following information, at a minimum:
[1] 
Delineation of the proposed district boundary and the boundaries of the use areas within the district, indicating for each such use its general extent, size and composition;
[2] 
The general outlines of the interior roadway system and all existing and proposed rights-of-way and easements, whether public or private;
[3] 
The general pedestrian circulation plan, to prioritize pedestrian safety over vehicular movement and parking;
[4] 
The interior open space system, if any;
[5] 
The overall drainage system, including existing and proposed easements;
[6] 
If grades exceed 3%, or portions of the site have soils which have a moderate to high susceptibility to erosion or a moderate to high susceptibility to flooding and ponding, a topographic map with contours at intervals of not more than five feet of elevation shall be provided along with an overlay portraying the above susceptible soil areas;
[7]

Evidence that the proposal is compatible with the Village's Comprehensive Plan;
[4] 
General statement as to how existing and proposed open and common space is to be maintained and used;
[5] 
If the development is to be phased or sectioned, a general indication of how the phasing or sectioning is to proceed and a preliminary schedule. Whether or not the development is to be phased or sectioned, the PUD plan shall show the entire project;
[6] 
A statement regarding the availability of water supply and sewage disposal;
[7] 
A general description of the public safety services which will be required and whether such services are presently available;
[8]

Any other information reasonably required by the Planning Board.
(e) 
Planning Board review of the PUD plan. The Planning Board shall review the PUD plan and its accompanying documents and shall make a recommendation to the Village Board, within such time as the Planning Board deems adequate. The Planning Board may call upon any Village department or officials and any other public agencies or private consultants that it feels are necessary to provide a sound review of the proposal, the reasonable cost of which, if any, shall be borne by the applicant. The Planning Board shall refer the PUD plan to the Fayetteville Fire Department and SOCPA, and the Planning Board shall consider each organization's comments, if any, before making its recommendation to the Village Board. The following matters shall be addressed in the Planning Board's referral report to the Village Board:
[1] 
The consistency of the plan with the Village Comprehensive Plan;
[2] 
The consistency of the plan with the purposes and objectives of a PUD District;
[3] 
Whether the plan meets all of the applicable general requirements of this section;
[4] 
Whether the plan is conceptually sound in that it meets local and area-wide needs and conforms to accepted design principles in the proposed functional roadway system, land use configuration, open space system, pedestrian system and drainage system;
[5] 
Whether there are adequate services and utilities available or proposed to be made available for the site;
[6] 
Whether the proposed phasing or sectioning, if any, is feasible and appropriate to the purposes and circumstances of the project. The Planning Board shall consider whether the phasing or sectioning proposed will have an adverse impact upon the completion of the entire project or a negative impact in the event that the entire project is not completed as contemplated.
(f) 
Village Board action. If the Planning Board recommends denial of the application for a PUD District, the application shall be denied. If the Planning Board recommends approval of the application for a PUD District (with or without conditions or modifications to the PUD plan), the Village Board shall consider whether to approve the application.
(g) 
Village Board approval.
[1] 
Before voting on whether to approve a PUD plan and thereby to establish a PUD District, the Village Board shall complete all procedures required under SEQR and shall hold a public hearing in accordance with § 187-35 of the Village Code.
[2] 
Following the public hearing, the Village Board shall, by resolution, approve or disapprove the proposed PUD plan as presented or modified, with or without conditions as necessary to fully protect the health, safety, and welfare of the community. If the PUD plan is approved, the resolution shall set forth the time, from site plan approval by the Planning Board, within which the applicant must complete the development and/or the periods of time in which phased development must be completed and new phases commenced.
[3] 
A resolution approving a PUD plan shall state the allowed uses and the areas for those allowed uses, as well as the density of the allowed uses.
[4] 
As a condition of approval, the Village Board may require the posting of adequate performance guaranties to ensure the completion of the project and the installation of all site improvements. Such performance guaranties shall be in an amount established by the Village Board and deemed sufficient by the Village Board to cover the cost of all such improvements as estimated by the Village Board, and should include an agreed-upon schedule for the completion of the improvements, and shall be in a form satisfactory to the Village Attorney.
[5] 
If the Village Board grants the zone change, the Zoning Map shall be so amended. No permits or other approvals will be issued until site plan approval has been granted by the Planning Board.
(h) 
Site plan approval.
[1] 
Upon Village Board approval of the PUD District as provided for in Subsection M(3)(g) above, the Planning Board shall undertake final project site plan review in accordance with § 187-37 of the Village of Fayetteville Code.
[2] 
If the applicant fails to obtain site plan approval within 12 months of the approval date of the zone change by the Village Board, the subject property shall revert to its prior zoning district classification, unless the Planning Board grants an extension of the twelve-month deadline.
(i) 
Subdivisions in a PUD District. If part of the proposed PUD involves the subdivision of land into smaller parcels for sale to individual owners, the procedures required for approval of the PUD plan and site plan shall suffice for compliance with the Village subdivision regulations. In such case, the developer shall prepare a subdivision plat suitable for signature by the Planning Board Chairman and filing with the County Clerk following site plan approval.
(j) 
Failure to comply with PUD plan or to commence or complete construction. If the PUD applicant or subsequent owner fails to develop the site in accordance with the approved PUD plan and site plan, or if the applicant or subsequent owner fails to develop the site in accordance with the approved timetable for development, including compliance with any specified time for commencing and/or completing any phase of construction after the granting of site plan approval and/or issuance of a building permit, the PUD District shall become null and void, and the property shall revert to the prior zoning classification(s), unless the Village Board passes a resolution providing otherwise.
(k) 
Amendments to approved PUD plan. An approved PUD plan may be amended only by resolution of the Village Board following a positive recommendation from the Planning Board. For the purposes of regulating development and use of property after initial construction and occupancy, all changes to a PUD plan, including but not limited to changes in use, shall be processed as special use permit requests to and decision by the Planning Board for recommendation to the Village Board. Properties in a PUD District are unique and shall be so considered by the Planning Board and Village Board when evaluating these requests, and maintenance of the intent and function of the PUD District shall be of primary importance.
