The PROS zoning district is intended to implement the Comprehensive Plan's Parks, Recreation and Open Space land use designation. The PROS district aims to protect and preserve lands that are currently developed, used, suited, or planned for, public and/or private park, recreation and open space uses. This district is appropriate for lands acquired, proposed to be acquired, or set aside for public park and recreation use by the Comprehensive Plan and for other semi-publicly or privately owned lands that are dedicated, reserved or otherwise set aside for long-term protection of their open space qualities or recreational potential. The PROS district allows for a mix of active and passive recreational facilities which meet the needs of the community in a manner consistent with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan.

In order to ensure timely and effective long-range planning efforts for park, recreation and open space facilities intended to be developed over an extended period of time, and to allow for streamlined review of individual improvements, a master plan for a facility may be submitted for processing as a major site plan in accordance with Chapter 22.72 FMC. For public improvements, the master planning process may be completed for a site in conjunction with the long range planning conducted for updates to the city's comprehensive park and recreation plan. Upon approval of a master plan, individual uses that would otherwise be subject to site plan or conditional use permit approval in this chapter, and which are determined by the director to be consistent with the approved master plan, may be approved in accordance with the administrative use permit review process contained in Chapter 22.70 FMC. No additional site plan or conditional use permit approval is required for these previously authorized uses. If a proposed individual use represents a substantial modification to, or departure from, the approved master plan, the proposal shall be processed as a site plan amendment in accordance with FMC § 22.72.012.
