A. Introduction. The granting of a Planned Urban Development
"PUD" shall be in accordance with the procedure set forth below and
in no way should be construed as an automatic right by the applicant.
The granting of a "PUD" is the legal responsibility of the Ste. Genevieve
Board of Aldermen upon recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
The "PUD" shall be a "floating zone" and shall not be attached to
any land until such land is affirmatively rezoned as a "PUD" consistent
with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance of Ste. Genevieve.
B. Purpose Of The District. A "PUD" is intended to permit developments
that will provide a desirable and stable environment in harmony with
that of the surrounding areas; to permit flexibility that will encourage
a more creative approach in the development of land, will result in
a more efficient, aesthetic and desirable use of area; to permit flexibility
in design, placement of buildings, use of open spaces, circulation
facilities and off-street parking areas; and to best utilize the potential
of sites characterized by special features of geography, topography,
size and shape.
C. Minimum Area. The area required to establish a "PUD" shall
be a minimum of five (5) acres in all zoning districts. In calculating
the minimum area for a "PUD", the measurements shall not include the
area of any existing dedicated streets or alleys.
D. Permitted Uses Limitations. The Board of Aldermen shall
designate each approved "PUD" as either a "PUD A", "PUD R-1", "PUD
R-2", "PUD R-3", "PUD C-1" or "PUD C-2". Such designation shall limit
the general range of uses permitted in the designated "PUD" to the
range of uses which are permitted in the corresponding zoning districts
as set forth in the table below:
|

E. Development Density.
1. Calculations of density. The Board of Aldermen shall
approve the maximum density allowed in any "PUD". The Board of Aldermen
shall only approve a maximum density compatible and in harmony with
existing surrounding densities or future densities indicated by the
City's Comprehensive Plan. In calculating the density for a tract
of land, the applicant is encouraged to consult the City's Comprehensive
Plan to assure compatibility and harmony with surrounding densities.
If density bonuses are requested under this Subsection, the applicant
is expected to document all site amenities or improvements for the
City's review and consideration.
2. Density bonuses. To encourage utilization of the
"PUD" technique, an applicant may be eligible for a maximum increase
of thirty percent (30%) in the total "floor area ratio" over that
which would otherwise be allowed. For the purposes of this Subsection, "floor area ratio" shall mean the gross floor area of all
buildings in the "PUD" divided by the land area of the "PUD". Such
density increases may be granted only by the Board of Aldermen according
to the following criteria:
|
MAXIMUM PERCENTAGE INCREASE
|
DESIGN ELEMENT
|
---|
|
5%
|
For each contiguous five percent (5%) area of "PUD" consisting
of not less than one-half (½) acre devoted to improved usable
open space.
|
|
5%
|
Provision of pedestrian ways (pedestrian, bicycle paths).
|
|
5%
|
Provision of high quality tree and shrub planting, including
peripheral and interior screen planting and fencing, landscaping and
parking lots and the use of existing trees in the plan. This provision
is in addition to the required screening requirements.
|
|
5%
|
Creative building site designs and groupings that take advantage
of natural terrain and minimize future water runoff and erosion problems.
Basins and water features included in the overall design are encouraged.
|
|
10%
|
Recreational facilities (i.e., swimming pool, tennis court and
community center or club building. The Board of Aldermen shall approve
the density bonus for recreational facilities up to ten percent (10%)
upon consideration of the size, quantity and type of facilities provided.
|
F. Management And Use Of Open Space In A Planned Urban Development. Note: This Section shall be read in conjunction with the Subdivision
Regulations of the City of Ste. Genevieve.
1. In a "PUD", all land not subdivided into lots or used as the building
site for multiple-family dwellings, for public roads, alleys, privately
maintained off-street parking facilities, drainage easements, utility
easements, potential or existing school sites, drainage canals or
detention basins shall be deemed "open space" and be disposed of in
either of the following methods:
a. Dedication to the City.
(1)
The geographic configuration, area, location and interest in
land (e.g., fee, easement) to be dedicated to the City for open space
shall be as finally approved by the Board of Aldermen with consideration
of the recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
(2)
The Board of Aldermen may also require any such dedicated land
to be improved as usable space for recreational purposes before accepting
any dedication.
(3)
A notation shall be placed on the recorded plat identifying
all property dedicated to the City together with the stated purpose
for which the property was dedicated to the City.
(4)
Every parcel of open space dedicated to the City shall have
frontage along a public road.
b. Ownership by a non-profit homeowners association or other
legally responsible entity. The Board of Aldermen may require
that ownership of open space in a "PUD" be held by a non-profit homeowners'
association or other legally responsible entity. Open space held by
such an association shall, at minimum, be open to residents, patrons
and employees who may live, shop or work within the "PUD" boundaries.
The association shall maintain the common land and any buildings,
recreation facilities, sidewalks, private utilities, sewers or private
streets upon such common land. The association may levy among all
owners of lots and all owners of condominium units for the purpose
of raising funds to:
(1)
Maintain the common land.
(2)
Pay real estate taxes assessed on the common land.
(3)
Pay any insurance premiums on the common land.
(4)
Pay for any improvements that the association deems necessary
for the common land.
2. Review guidelines (site development plan).
a. In conjunction with the submittal of an application for a "PUD", the applicant shall submit a site development plan for review and approval. The site development plan shall comply with the requirements of Subsection
(G)(4) below. Additional information pertinent to the specific development proposed may also be required on the site development plan. The application and site development plan shall first be referred to the Planning and Zoning Commission for review and report.
b. Upon receipt of the report of the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Board of Aldermen shall hold a public hearing to consider the proposed "PUD" and shall provide legal notice in compliance with Section
405.230 of the City's Zoning Ordinance.
c. In reviewing the site development plan, the Planning and Zoning Commission
and the Board of Aldermen shall consider the following criteria:
(1)
Compliance with the requirements of this Section regarding land
uses and density, including specific reasons and documentation for
recommending increased density if such recommendation is made.
(2)
General conformance and compatibility with the City's Comprehensive
Plan.
(3)
The internal relationship of land uses within the proposed "PUD"
to existing and future uses in the surrounding area.
(4)
The general layout of the internal transportation system, including
parking and pedestrian circulation and the relationship of that system
to exterior transportation facilities and the major streets plan.
(5)
The adequacy of proposed public facilities including water supply
and distribution, sanitary sewers, storm drainage, school site and
recreational areas.
(6)
The adequacy of proposed easements or provisions for dedication
of any land or facilities to the City or for operation and maintenance
of any land or facilities reserved for the common use of residents,
patrons and employees who may live, shop or work within the "PUD"
boundaries.
|
In addition to the foregoing, the Board of Aldermen shall consider
any other written recommendations deemed essential by the Planning
and Zoning Commission for review and consideration of the "PUD".
|
G. Procedure For Review And Disposition Of Planned Urban Development. To obtain a "PUD" on any tract of land currently zoned within the
City's corporate limits, the applicant must, in general, follow the
