Lot size shall be specified in the Board of Trustees' approval
of a Planned Development Zone.
Buildings in a Planned Development Zone shall be located not less than 75 feet from any public road right-of-way line existing at the time of the PDZ application, or 100 feet from any other existing property line bordering the PDZ, unless the Village's Board of Trustees determines in accordance with §
305-54 below that an exception to this requirement is justified and the Board specifies the nature and scope of such exception in its approval of a PDZ.
The total lot coverage for all buildings in the Planned Development Zone shall not exceed the lot coverage requirements of the underlying zoning district, unless the Village's Board of Trustees determines in accordance with §
305-54 below that an exception to this requirement is justified and the Board specifies the nature and scope of such exception in its approval of a PDZ.
Existing natural features within a Planned Development Zone
shall be preserved to the maximum extent feasible and incorporated
into the site design.
The rate of stormwater runoff from a Planned Development Zone
after development is complete shall not exceed the rate that would
occur under a natural undeveloped condition as calculated for a one-hundred-year
storm and is in compliance with the Village's stormwater local law
and applicable state law and regulations.
Site plan approval for a Planned Development Zone shall follow the same review procedures as set forth in Article
XVII of this chapter and shall have the same plan requirements as specified for major subdivisions in Article
XVIII of this chapter. Notwithstanding the application of such review procedures, the Planning Board's site plan approval for a PDZ shall be conditioned on the Village's Board of Trustees granting final approval of the PDZ. Following the Planning Board's grant of conditional site plan approval, but before the approved site plan has been signed by the Planning Board chairperson, the Village's Board of Trustees must grant its final approval of the PDZ.
Notwithstanding any of the requirements set forth in this article,
the Village's Board of Trustees shall have the authority to make exceptions
to certain requirements of this article in accordance with the following
conditions:
A. If the Board determines (1) that (a) the physical features, location or proposed use or uses of the site proposed for a Planned Development Zone, or (b) such site's relationship to other sites in the vicinity of the proposed PDZ site or the physical features or uses of those other sites, warrant that an exception be made to the requirements set forth in §
305-45C,
305-47 305-48 or 305-49 of this article, and (2) that such exception is justified (a) by achieving a specific objective or recommendation of the Village's Comprehensive Plan or (b) by promoting the public health, safety and general welfare of the Village and its residents, in either case to an extent greater than could be achieved or promoted if the proposed PDZ site were developed in accordance with the underlying zoning district requirements for such site, then the Board of Trustees may modify the requirements set forth in §
305-45C,
305-47 305-48 or 305-49 of this article subject to any conditions the Board may wish to impose.
B. In order for the Board to grant an exception to the requirements set forth in §
305-45C,
305-47 305-48 or 305-49 of this article, the Board must identify in the record (1) the specific objective or recommendation of the Village's Comprehensive Plan that will be achieved, or the specific aspect of the public health, safety and general welfare of the Village and its residents that will be promoted, and (2) how the PDZ will achieve or promote such result to an extent greater than could be achieved or promoted if the proposed PDZ site were developed in accordance with the underlying zoning district requirements for such site.
