[Ord. No. 1250 §1(510), 10-15-2002]
A. 
Purpose. The purpose of Planned Development Districts is to enable greater flexibility, creativity, and innovation in land development and design than is normally possible under traditional zoning regulations. Planned Development Districts must meet specific criteria to ensure the protection of health, safety, and welfare, and be in accordance with the intent and purposes of the Branson West Comprehensive Plan.
Specifically, it is the purpose of Planned Development Districts to achieve one (1) or more of the following goals:
1. 
Careful, creative design that is architecturally harmonious and maintains a positive visual impact on the community and that creates a sense of place.
2. 
More efficient use of land, public services and infrastructure.
3. 
Preservation and protection of significant natural features such as streams, trees, topographic features, and significant cultural features.
B. 
Authority. The Board of Aldermen is authorized to establish Planned Development Districts which may differ from the provisions of the other zoning districts of this Chapter, but are congruent with the spirit and intent of this Chapter and the Branson West Comprehensive Plan.
C. 
Planned Development Districts — General Provisions.
1. 
Planned Development Districts shall be established on a parcel of sufficient size to be planned and developed. Mixed-Use Planned Development Districts shall be established on a minimum of five (5) acres, and Residential Planned Development Districts shall be established on a minimum of ten (10) acres. The entire tract or parcel of land for the Planned Development District must be held in single ownership, or the application for the Planned Development District must be filed jointly by multiple owners.
2. 
All Planned Development Districts shall comply with the following guidelines:
a. 
The Planned Development District should not have an adverse impact on the property value of adjacent land, nor should it hinder the implementation of the Branson West Comprehensive Plan.
b. 
Planned Development Districts must provide for adequate traffic circulation within the development, and must provide adequate connectivity with all modes of the City-wide transportation network.
c. 
No Planned Development District should impose an undue burden on public services, facilities and infrastructure.
d. 
The location of structures, parking areas, walks, lighting, and streets shall be compatible with surrounding land uses; landscaping should be used were there are no structures, parking and loading areas, or accessways.
e. 
A Planned Development District may be developed in phases, provided that no phase or unit of development shall be constructed without proportional development of common open space (if any is to be provided). All public improvements directly related to each phase must be completed at the time the phase is developed and all public improvements serving the entire planned development must be completed in a sequencing that assures full utilization of the planned development and all areas within the development.
f. 
The Commission may modify the period of time for completing the entire development and commencement date for each phase of the planned development if the applicant can show good cause for doing so, provided that in no case shall any extension exceed twelve (12) months.
g. 
The applicant shall provide and record easements and covenants and furnish other guarantees deemed necessary by the Board of Aldermen to assure performance in accordance with the final development plan and to protect the public interest in the event of abandonment before the development's completion.
h. 
Planned Development Districts shall comply with the off-street parking and loading area requirements of Article IX, Parking and Loading Area Requirements of this Chapter.
i. 
Specifications for the design of streets, public utilities, curbs, sidewalks, street lights, public playgrounds and parks, storm water drainage, water supply and distribution, and sanitary sewers and collection shall comply with the City of Branson West Design Standards for Public Improvements.
j. 
The Commission may waive or modify such requirements if the Commission finds that the specifications will not harm the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of Branson West, and that amended specifications would conform to the Branson West Comprehensive Plan and the intent of this Chapter. However, no modification shall:
(1) 
Allow the use of other than public sewers and public water supply.
(2) 
Permit private or gated streets in a Planned Development District.
3. 
The total number of dwelling units in a Planned Development District shall not exceed the maximum number of units allowed in the development's underlying zoning district or districts. The density of dwelling units in a Planned Development District shall also conform with the lot and bulk regulations of this Chapter unless the Commission approves a development plan that includes design and infrastructure elements to accommodate greater densities in localized areas of the development using these guidelines:
a. 
Any reduction in minimum lot size shall be compensated by equivalent common open space in the balance of the development.
b. 
The Commission shall, in its determination, also consider that the physical characteristics of the site may make increased densities appropriate in a particular location.
c. 
The total ground area occupied by buildings and structures shall not exceed thirty-five percent (35%) of the total ground area of the planned development. If previous development in the neighborhood exceeds coverage of thirty-five percent (35%), the coverage area of the Planned Development District may be increased to correspond with that of the neighborhood as a whole.
d. 
Unless a modification to lot and bulk requirements are approved by the Commission, all residential lots in a Planned Development District shall meet the following minimum requirements:
(1) 
Minimum twenty-five (25) foot front yard setback.

The development plan shall also provide for remedial measures that will be available to the City of Branson West should the common open space deteriorate or not be maintained in a manner consistent with the interests of the residents of the Planned Development District or the residents of Branson West.
c. 
Adequate safeguards such as recorded covenants shall be provided in the Planned Development District to ensure that no structure is ever constructed in the common open space and to prevent use of the common open space which is inconsistent with the intent of the development plan.
(1) 
The development plan shall specify and identify all facilities and structures to be included in common open space.
(2) 
Any change in the number or type of facilities and structures located in common open space shall constitute a significant change in the planned development plan and shall require public hearing before the Commission, in accordance with the provisions of Article III, Administration and Review, and approval by the Board of Aldermen.
D. 
Residential Planned Development Districts.
1. 
Residential Planned Development Districts include dwelling units in detached, semi-detached, and attached dwelling units, and cultural or recreational uses intended to serve residents of the neighborhood. The purpose of a Residential Planned Development District is to allow for creativity in residential design, allow for a mixture of residential density within the same development, and encourage the conservation of significant natural or cultural features.
2. 
Residential planned developments may be located in the "R-2" and "R-3" Residence Districts and may include any of the permitted and conditional uses allowed in the districts, contingent on the design, intensity, and context of surrounding land uses.
3. 
The highest intensity of residential use in a Residential Planned Development District shall not exceed the highest intensity use allowed in the parcel's underlying zoning district. The Board of Aldermen may, however, allow a higher intensity use than would normally be allowed in the underlying zoning district if the applicant can show that the design of the development will minimize the impact of the greater intensity, and that the greater intensity will not jeopardize the health, safety and welfare of Branson West residents or the provision of public services.
E. 
Mixed-Use Planned Development Districts.
1. 
The purpose of a Mixed-Use Planned Development District is to promote greater convenience and innovative use of land within the same planned development. Mixed-Use Planned Development Districts may include a combination of residential, office, commercial, and light industrial uses. A mixed-use planned development must include a commercial or light industrial use; any development including only residential uses must be developed as a Residential Planned Development District. A Mixed-Use Planned Development District must be located in a "R-2", "R-3", "C-2", or "I-1" zoning district.
2. 
Mixed-Use Planned Development Districts are also subject to the following provisions:
a. 
Screening and buffering in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII, Landscaping Screening and Buffering Requirements may be required between commercial, industrial, and/or residential uses within a Planned Development District or adjacent to the Planned Development District.
b. 
The Board of Aldermen may restrict or require restrictive covenants prohibiting certain uses normally permitted in any of the above districts and their hours of operation if those uses will have an adverse impact on other properties located in or adjacent to the planned development. Considerations for the limitations of such uses include:
(1) 
The impact of dust, chemicals, noise, and other pollutants on surrounding properties.
(2) 
The impact of the hours of operation of a use and the enjoyment of surrounding property.
(3) 
The impact of traffic, freight pickup or deliveries, and lighting on surrounding uses.
(4) 
Outdoor storage and the storage or manufacturing of hazardous materials.
c. 
Residential uses may share the same multi-story structure with a commercial use, provided that residential dwelling units are limited to the secondary floors of the structure, and that the Board of Aldermen determines that any such an arrangement will not adversely affect the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of any such units.

Any ordinance approving the planned development shall specify the zoning regulations and restrictions that will apply to the Planned Development District pursuant to the preliminary development plan, and shall set such boundaries on a map that is incorporated and published as a part of such ordinance, with the designation "RPD" for Residential Planned Development Districts and "MPD" for Mixed-Use Planned Development Districts.
2. 
Any such ordinance shall also specify the conditions and restrictions that have been imposed by the Board of Aldermen on the planned development, and the extent to which the otherwise applicable district regulations have been varied or modified. When the ordinance designates divisible geographic sections of the development that may be developed as a unit, the ordinance shall authorize the Commission to modify the schedule of development to the extent set out in Subsection (C)(2).
3. 
The City Clerk shall transmit a copy of the ordinance approving and adopting the Planned Development District to the applicant. The Planned Development District will also be noted on the Official Zoning Map maintained at Branson West City Hall.
4. 
Preliminary approval of a development plan shall not qualify as a final plat of the planned development for recording.
5. 
A preliminary development plan which has been approved, or approved with modifications which have been accepted by the applicant, shall not be modified, revoked or otherwise impaired, pending the application for approval of a final development plan or plans, by any action of the City without the consent of the applicant. However, such a plan may be modified if the applicant fails to meet time schedules for filing a final development plan, fails to proceed with development in accordance with the plans as approved, or fails to comply with any condition of this Section or any approval granted pursuant to it in any other manner.
6. 
If no time is specified in the ordinance approving the preliminary development plan, then an application for approval of a final development plan, or of each of its phases, shall be filed within one (1) year.
7. 
The preliminary development plan may be revoked if the applicant, after the approval of the preliminary development plan but before the approval of the final development plan:
a. 
Chooses to abandon the development plan and provide written notification to the Commission of such action.
b. 
Fails to file an application(s) for approval of a final plan within the required time period
8. 
Any portion or total of the planned development not given final approval shall be subject to all provisions of the zoning regulations as amended and any other ordinance as amended that was applicable prior to the approval of the preliminary plan. The Board of Aldermen shall adopt an ordinance repealing the Planned Development District for that portion not given final approval and re-establishing the zoning and other ordinances applicable to the land immediately prior to the Planned Development District. Any such revocation shall be noted on the Official Zoning Map.
