[Ord. No. 2002 §1, 10-2-2007]
The purpose of the Planned Residential District ("PRD") is to
allow a less restrictive relationship among various buildings, structures
and open spaces in planned building groups on large parcels of land,
as long as public health, safety and welfare are preserved. Freedom
to design includes flexible standards concerning lot and yard dimensions.
This district is further intended to preserve steep slopes, floodways,
significant woodlands and other sensitive natural lands. Larger-scale
site planning for residential and supporting uses should produce high
quality buildings and open spaces while preserving the best environmental
features. Internal roads and drives should complement the City's system
of arterial and collector roads.
