The
zoning districts established for the areas within each designated
overlay district consist of base zoning districts and overlay zoning
districts.

the zoning districts that reflect the three (3) basic geographically-based
land use categories in the City:

|
with appropriate regulations and development standards to govern
the uses in these districts. The land use regulations for each base
zoning district specify land uses permitted by right, with specific
limitations or performance criteria, or allowed after obtaining a
conditional use permit.

Overlay zoning districts consist of regulations that address specific subjects that require special treatment in light of geographical characteristics and/or zoning policies. Where an overlay district has been designated within the City of Clayton, the regulations of that overlay district shall supersede or supplement, as applicable, the regulations of the base zoning district(s) and the provisions of Chapter 405 of the Municipal Code.
[Ord. No. 5814 §1(1a.3), 4-27-2004]
The City of Clayton overlay zoning districts are defined by

[Ord. No. 5814 §1(1a.12), 4-27-2004]
Allowable uses permitted by right and by conditional use permit in the overlay zoning districts have the potential for interfering with the use and enjoyment of adjacent property and uses if located and laid out on zoning lots without careful planning. Site plan review is under the authority of the Plan Commission and addresses the site details of a development. It does not address off-site conditions except to the extent that an on-site condition (e.g., ingress/egress) affects off-site conditions (e.g., traffic). The site plan review regulations and procedures set forth in Chapter 405 of the Municipal Code apply to all development proposals within the overlay zoning districts established by these regulations.
[Ord. No. 5814 §1(1a.13), 4-27-2004]
A.
Planned
unit developments are a distinct zoning district. Commercial planned
unit developments are intended to encourage the efficient use of land
and resources, promoting greater efficiency in public and utility
services encouraging innovation in the planning and building of all
types of development. The planned unit development district is intended
to provide a means for the redevelopment of an area in a unified land
development that will improve the quality of the subject properties
and have a beneficial effect on adjacent residential areas.
B.
Rezoning
to a commercial planned unit development district is allowed in all
overlay districts.
