§ 2007. Development summary report required.

Applications for rezoning to or development within a Planned Unit Development District shall require a written report which explains the type, nature, size, intent and characteristics of the proposed development.

At a minimum, the report shall including the following:

1.

A complete listing of every land use proposed within the development, including total acreage and the amount of acreage devoted to each use including open space, as well as residential units by type and density. All uses not specifically included in the report or site plan and approved by the governing body are prohibited unless the application is subsequently amended in accordance with applicable procedures.

2.

Proposed development standards, including minimum lot sizes, minimum lot widths, minimum lot frontages, minimum floor areas or residential dwelling unit sizes, maximum number of dwelling units, maximum square footage figures for non-residential developments, minimum yards/building setbacks, landscape strips and buffers, height limitations, restrictive covenants, and any other such applicable standard or requirement. The report should also indicate any proposed exceptions or variations from the size, setback, frontage, density or other standards which are required in other conventional zoning districts, along with justification for such proposed exceptions or variations.

3.

Time frame of development and provisions for ownership and management of the development.

4.

Intended plans for the provision of utilities, including water, sewer, drainage facilities and street lighting. The report should also include the street types and right-of-way widths, parking areas, including the number of parking spaces provided and state the criteria used to determine the number of parking spaces required.

5.

All streets and common open spaces not proposed for dedication to the public shall have the proposed maintenance and ownership agreements explained in detail.

6.

Applications shall include perspective front, side and rear elevation drawings of representative building types. These drawings shall indicate general architectural characteristics. If the PUD is approved, substantial compliance with the architectural elevations shall be required.

7.

Community benefit statement that will address the relative benefits that will accrue to the community as a result of the property being developed under PUD provisions. Specific mention should be made of mix of uses included, open spaces provided, natural features retained and architectural design to be provided. This statement is a developer's opportunity to define why the PUD proposal merits approval and how it will serve the community better than a conventional development.
