It is the intention of the associated provisions to allow flexible land use composition and design without sacrificing the basic principles of sound zoning practice. The basic zoning districts and their permitted uses as established in this chapter will form the land use base for designing a combination of uses permitted in each district in the form of clustering principal uses and activities at a higher density than would otherwise be possible under the respective district regulations on a preferred portion of a parcel while maintaining the overall density of development of the parcels consistent with the district regulations. Another option would be to combine the planning of land uses and activities from several districts as one project on the same clustering principle.
B. 
See Article VIII for specific use regulations.
A. 
Intent and purpose.
(1) 
This district is intended to implement the goals, policies, and future land use designation of the Master Plan through the provision of a mixture of nonresidential uses that will contribute significantly to the tax base of the Township. The specific policies which the PDA Pinnacle Development Area District seeks to implement include the following:
(a) 
Development standards that require a high quality of design and mitigate any negative impacts on adjacent uses and the existing natural features;
(b) 
Employ alternative site layout (i.e., low-impact development) standards;
(c) 
Where deemed necessary, expand public utilities and services, and mitigate impacts to the existing infrastructure.
(2) 
This designation is intended to permit flexible land use composition and site layout in exchange for higher quality design and incorporation of low-impact development guidelines. More specifically, the zoning district regulations encourage:
(a) 
Mixed-use environment;
(b) 
Pedestrian interconnectivity, shared parking, and access;
(c) 
Multiple-story buildings;
(d) 
High-quality building materials;
(e) 
Extensive landscaping that ties into the existing natural environment and provides extensive perimeter screening;
(f) 
Uniformity as it relates to signage and lighting; and
(g) 
Creation of an attractive gateway into the Township.
(3)
