G. Development Plan–Hearing and Findings for Approval. The planning commission shall hold a public hearing pursuant to the provisions in Chapter
12.132. The commission may then recommend the establishment of the P-D district; and the city council, after a public hearing, may, by ordinance, establish a P-D district, provided they find that the facts presented at the hearings establish that:
1.
The proposed P-D district can substantially
be completed within the time schedule submitted by the applicant;
2.
Each unit of the development, as
well as the total development, can exist as an independent development
capable of creating an environment of sustained desirability and stability
or adequate assurance that such objective will be attained;
3.
The land uses proposed will not be
detrimental to the present or potential surrounding uses but will
have a beneficial effect which would not be achieved through other
districts;

The streets and thoroughfares proposed
are suitable and adequate to carry anticipated traffic, and increased
densities will not generate traffic in such amounts as to overload
the street network outside the P-D district;

can be justified economically at the location proposed and will provide
adequate commercial facilities for the area;
6.
Any exceptions from the standard
district requirements are warranted by the design of the project and

in conformance with the General Plan of the city.
H. Development Plan–Denial; Approval
with Conditions.
1.
Establishment of the P-D district
shall occur concurrently with the approval of the development plan.
2.
If, from the facts presented, the
planning commission or the city council fails to make the necessary
findings, the application shall be denied.
3.
The planning commission may recommend
disapproval of the development plan as submitted or may recommend
approval of the development plan, subject to specified amendments
and modifications.
4.
The commission shall not make a favorable
recommendation to the council, nor shall the council adopt an ordinance
classifying a parcel P-D, without coincidentally or previously having
approved the development plan.
I. Development Plan–Amendment or Modification,
Reclassification, Null and Void.
1.
All amendments or modifications to an approved development plan shall be made in accordance with the procedure set forth for amending the zoning ordinance in Chapter
12.136. The community development director may, however, approve or conditionally approve minor adjustments to the original development plan, provided said adjustments do not conflict with the concept or intent of the development plan originally approved by the commission or council.
2.
If, in the opinion of the commission
or council, the development in a P-D district is failing or has failed
to meet the requirements of the development plan, or any part thereof,
the commission or council may initiate proceedings to reclassify the
property to another zoning district.
3.
Development plans approved in accordance
with the provisions of this section shall become null and void if
a planned development permit is not filed with the commission within
one year after the effective date of the ordinance adopting the approved
development plan. Such time limitation shall be subject to reasonable
extensions upon a showing by the applicant of extraordinary or uncontrollable
circumstances warranting such extensions.
J. Planned Development Permit (PDP)–Submission.
Prior to the issuance of a building permit in any parcel zoned P-D,
the owner or applicant shall procure a planned development permit
from the decision-making body. Prior to approval of any application
for a planned development permit, owner or applicant shall submit
the following to the community development director:
1.
A tentative subdivision map (when
either parcelization of the property or a condominium project is proposed);
2.
Proposed landscaping and irrigation
plan;
3.
Proposed engineering plans, including
site grading, street improvements, drainage, and other public utilities,
which plans, when approved by the commission shall not be construed
to mean that the plans will constitute the final improvement plans
for the subdivision. The city engineer, after detailed design studies,
may require modifications and/or additional plans and specification,
if such additional requirements clearly follow the spirit and intent
of the approved specific plan;
4.
Proposed building plans, including
floor plans and exterior elevations indicating the materials, color
scheme, and treatment of surfaces;

9.
A fee, as set by the city council.
Except for the fee, the submittal requirements may be modified
by the community development director.

K. Planned Development Permit (PDP)–Action.
1.
A PDP, or a modification to an existing PDP, is required for new construction as defined in Chapter
12.108. A PDP, or modification to an existing PDP, shall require a planning commission public hearing in accordance with the procedures set forth in Chapter

a.
The first implementation of a new
development plan;
b.
New buildings, except for accessory

any development plan. The decision-making body may approve, approve
conditionally, or disapprove the planned development permit as presented.
No grading, subdivision, or development shall be permitted in any
P-D district, or any unit thereof, until the planned development permit
for such district, or unit thereof, has been approved by the pursuant

3.
The owner or developer may submit
a PDP application for a portion or unit of a parcel designated P-D,

4.
Prior to approving any planned development
permit application the decision-making body must find that the proposed
planned development permit is consistent with the previously approved
development plan and that any proposed single-family or two-family
dwellings conform to the basic design principles of the residential
design guidelines as approved by resolution by the city council and
