§ 8.010. Intent.  


Latest version.
  • It is not the intention of these regulations to unduly restrict the development of planned projects, public or private, including but not limited to group housing projects, industrial parks, urban renewal projects, or subdivisions where public water and sewerage is provided for, where it is impracticable or unnecessary to strictly apply the requirements of this ordinance.

    The PUD concept permits modifications to intensity of use, setback requirements of a zoning ordinance, provided the development is approved by local officials. The developer may have higher densities at selected points in return for the provision of common open space elsewhere in the project. The planned unit development is a method for achieving better site design and protecting natural site amenities.
