§ 690-26 Planned unit development (PUD).

Purpose. The purpose of these planned unit development (PUD) provisions is to permit and encourage design flexibility within certain zoning districts of this chapter through use of the conditional use permit procedures. The PUD technique as described in this chapter will enable both developers and City officials to propose, review and agree upon site plans which integrate uses such as housing, circulation networks, nonresidential facilities and open space/recreational areas which are compatible with the natural environment.

Preapplication conference. Prior to the submittal of a PUD application, the applicant shall meet with the Zoning Administrator and provide the Zoning Administrator with a concept plan for the proposed PUD. Examples of information to include on a concept plan are types and placement of structures, utilities and public facilities, recreational facilities, lot sizes, densities, landscaping and environmental treatment, pedestrian and auto circulation, the compatibility of the proposed development with surrounding uses, financing of the project, and such other information needed to gain a satisfactory understanding of the proposed development.

Preliminary plan.

Following a preapplication conference, the applicant shall submit a preliminary plan for the PUD to the Plan Commission. The preliminary plan must contain that information that is required of a site plan as set forth in the site plan review article of this chapter as well as in accordance with the following provisions:

A statement of the objectives of the planned unit development, including physical, social and economic considerations.

A schedule of development, including phasing of residential, public, and open space/recreation areas.

A tabulation of the land area percentages (by land use type) for residential, public, utility and open space/recreation areas.

Any additional information that has been gathered by the developer that would be useful in giving the Plan Commission a description of the proposed project.

The Plan Commission shall review the preliminary plan and advise the applicant of any changes that are required. A formal written response shall be given to the applicant within 10 days on the preliminary plan, including all recommendations and comments of the Plan Commission.

Final plan. Once the applicant has been advised of the comments on the preliminary plan, he or she must submit a final plan to the Plan Commission within nine months. The final plan shall include all modifications from the preliminary plan, any additional necessary or pertinent legal documents, and detailed drawings or plans of elements that were presented in the preliminary plan. During this time, the applicant must also submit an application for a conditional use permit following the procedures outlined in this article and for a zoning amendment, if necessary, following the procedures outlined in Section § 690-13.

Modification to final plan. If it becomes necessary, due to unforeseen circumstances, to modify the approved final plan, the applicant shall submit, in writing, reasons for modification and the specifications of the proposed changes to the Zoning Administrator. The Plan Commission shall then review the proposed changes and shall approve the modifications, propose alternative changes or disapprove (adhere to approved final plan); in the case of a use change requiring a zoning permit, shall be forwarded to the Common Council. The Plan Commission must ensure that the standards set forth in this article are not violated by the proposed changes to the final development plan.

Application requirements. The application shall show the proposed use or uses, dimensions and locations of proposed structures and of areas to be reserved for vehicular and pedestrian traffic, parking, utilities and public facilities, landscaping, open spaces, architectural drawings and sketches, and such other information determined during the preapplication conference and as may be requested by such City agencies for a determination that it is desirable to deviate from certain provisions of this chapter.

Standards.

Minimum development size. The total area in any given PUD shall be a minimum of five acres.

Design. All PUDs shall be planned and developed as a single project.

Exclusions from gross area. Identifiable floodplains, wetlands, bodies of water and areas with slopes averaging 20% or more shall be specifically excluded from all building improvements and shall not be considered in determining the developable area of the PUD.

Uses. PUD uses shall be the same as those listed as permitted and conditional in the B3 Zone.

Spacing and orientation of building center. While the traditional front, side and rear yard setback requirements are not necessarily required for planned unit developments, the Plan Commission shall establish minimum spacing distances between structures to assure adequate light, air, privacy and fire protection for all residents. A building group shall not be so arranged that any permanently or temporarily occupied building is inaccessible to emergency vehicles.

Circulation. There shall be an adequate, safe and convenient arrangement of pedestrian circulation facilities, roadways, driveways, off-street parking and loading space. There shall be an adequate amount, in a suitable location, of pedestrian walks, malls and landscaped spaces to prevent pedestrian use of vehicular ways and parking spaces and to separate pedestrian walks, malls and public transportation loading places from general vehicular circulation facilities. Buildings and vehicular circulation open spaces shall be arranged so that pedestrians moving between buildings are not unnecessarily exposed to vehicular traffic.

Paving and drainage. There shall be adequate design of grades, paving, gutters, drainage and treatment of turf to handle stormwaters and prevent erosion. Refer to Chapter 147, Stormwater Utility.

(8)

Signs and lighting. Signs and lighting devices shall be properly arranged with respect to traffic control devices and adjacent residential districts. Refer to Article XXI, Signs.

(9)

Deed restrictions. The following deed restrictions shall be in place prior to consideration for approval:

Each dwelling unit shall be owner-occupied.

All units must be new construction.

(10)

Building heights. To ensure adequate light, ventilation, and open space amenities in the PUD while allowing a variety of building types and densities, building heights should be part of the review process. However, to protect the character of the area, a maximum building height of 35 feet shall be instituted.

(11)

Building requirements:

The minimum width shall be 14 feet.

Each unit built to Uniform Dwelling Code (UDC) or manufactured home (HUD) code shall be placed on one of the following foundations:

[1]

Floating slab (grade beam);

[2]

Frost wall four feet minimum below grade; or

[3]

Full basement.

All running gear shall be removed from manufactured homes.

(12)

A garage is required to be built prior to occupancy of the principal residential structure. (Note the two-car off-street parking requirement applies. If a one-car garage is built, a minimum space of 10 feet by 20 feet must be provided for a second car.)

(13)

Perimeter treatment. To provide adequate separation between the PUD and incompatible surrounding land uses, a buffer zone may be established on the perimeter of the development in which no structures are to be located. The buffer zone shall be at least 20 feet deep and may extend up to 100 feet depending on the PUD's compatibility with surrounding uses. Adequate screening and landscaping or protection by natural features shall be included in the buffer zone.

(14)

Open space. "Open space," as defined by the Plan Commission for the purposes of these PUD design requirements, refers to those areas established specifically for common use by all residents or homeowners of the planned unit development. In an effort to preserve and enhance open space and to provide adequate recreational areas for residential developments, the designated common open space shall comprise at least 20% of the total developable area of the PUD to be used for recreational, park, or environmental amenities for collective enjoyment by occupants of the development but shall not include public or private streets, driveways, or utility easements. Proposed open space shall connect with existing open space as much as feasibly possible.

(15)

Densities for residential development. Since the planned unit development concept is designed to encourage flexible and innovative building patterns, density requirements shall be based on the number of dwelling units per acre rather than the traditional minimum lot size requirements that would normally be applicable to the zoning district in which the PUD is located. The density requirements for residential uses in planned unit developments shall be seven dwelling units per developable acre. Density increases may be permitted by the Plan Commission for the following reasons:

The following formula shall be used in determining the increase of total additional dwelling units to be allowed as an incentive for designating additional open space within the developable area of the PUD:

[1]

For every unimproved acre of open space beyond the minimum requirement, one additional dwelling unit per three acres is allowed.

[2]

For every improved acre of open space beyond the minimum requirement, one additional dwelling unit per two acres is allowed.

For the development of a nature interpretive trail through the nondeveloped lands of the PUD, including such improvements as wood chip trails, wooden stairways or boardwalks, interpretive signage for significant natural features or plant and animal species, and other facilities designed to advance the appreciation of the natural environment, the Plan Commission may allow up to one additional dwelling unit per every two acres of developable land.

For the employment of unusually attractive or innovative building design or grouping, such as clustering, sun orientation, variation of building setbacks or other design features determined to significantly improve the character of the PUD, the Plan Commission may allow a density increase up to one additional dwelling unit per every four acres of developable land.

For the use of additional or attractive landscaping, particularly in the screening of parking areas, accessory buildings, public facilities, or utilities, the Plan Commission may allow for a density increase up to one additional dwelling unit per every four acres of developable land.
