EXHIBIT A PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT (PUD) AMENDMENTS
§ 170-28 Planned Unit Development District (PUD)
A. Planned unit development in general.
1. It is the intent of the PUD Zone to control the placement, design, use, and density of well-
planned, residential developments which will offer a variety of building types and a more
efficient overall use of land, and within these limits, permit the optimum amount of
freedom and variety in the design and management of such varying types of residential
structures, including one- and two-family units, townhouses and garden apartments.
Within the intention of these regulations, the following objectives are sought to provide
for the planned unit development:
a. To provide a more attractive and varied living environment than would be possible
through the strict application of R-1, R-2, and R-3, and TND District
requirements.
b. To encourage a more intimate, efficient and aesthetic use of open space.
c. To encourage developers to use a more creative approach in the development of
land.
d. To encourage variety in the physical development pattern of residential areas.
e. To encourage significant innovations in the development of land to bring about
sustainable patterns of development in environmentally sensitive areas, including
within the Critical Area.
2. The Council shall follow the procedures set forth in this section for the approval of a
floating zone for PUDs proposed in the R-1 or R-2 Districts.
3. PUDs shall be permitted in the R-3 Zone, and TND Zone in accordance with the
conditions and requirements contained in this section.
B. PUD Requirements.

incidental to management and sales operations of the planned unit development.
f. Temporary structures incidental to construction.
P ag e | 3

g. Applicable only to PUDs in the R-1, R-2, or R-3 Districts: In planned unit
developments, commercial establishments of a convenience and service nature for
PUD residents may be permitted. This subsection is intended to not limit
commercial uses and development in PUDs located within the TND District.
Such commercial establishments shall be an integral part of the plan for the PUD.
The total aggregate area of all the commercial establishments and their parking
areas shall not occupy more than 5% of the gross area of the PUD. Commercial
areas may include one or more stores and may be of the following types:
(1) Small neighborhood convenience centers may include laundry
establishments, beauty and barber shops, and retail food establishments of
less than 3,500 square feet. No commercial establishments shall be
constructed until 25% of the total planned residential units are completed.

community.
2. Where permitted, planned unit developments are permitted in the R-1, R-2, and R-3, and
TND Districts. In general, a planned unit development is contemplated in residential and
TND zones where tracts of suitable location, size, and character exist. The uses/structures
proposed are to be planned and developed according to the requirements and procedures
of this chapter. Planned unit development shall be approximately located with respect to
the general pattern of urban development, existing or proposed, and to existing public and
private facilities and services.
3. Computation of dwelling units permitted. The total density in the PUD will not be greater
than if developed under the terms of the underlying zoning district. The total permitted
dwelling units may be averaged over the entire PUD or clustered in various groupings.

two-bedroom, or three-or-more bedroom units that can be built within a planned unit
development or its stages.
5. Land coverage. The maximum amount of land that may be built over (covered) by parking

“common open space” provided other open space areas are reasonably distributed
throughout the community. All open space in PUDs located in the R-1, R-2, or R-3
Districts shall be designated for the common use of all occupants of the PUD and at least
70% of such space shall be developed as recreational areas.
8. Sanitary facilities. No PUD plan shall be approved unless the proposed development will
be served by public water and sewer disposal systems which shall be existing at the time
the plan receives final approval. Satisfactory evidence must be furnished to the Town
Council that the existing Town sewer and water systems can handle the increased
demands placed upon them by the proposed PUD and meet current Health Department

Regulations.

between buildings with the use of an arcade system, trellis, colonnade,
covered walkways, landscaping, enhanced paving, building articulation
and detailing, or similar features.

2. Area required. At least 2025% of the gross acreage of the Traditional Neighborhood
Development must be common open space. At least 2535% of the minimum required
common open space shall be dedicated as active open space.

or other BMPs for the retention, water quality improvement or release of
stormwater shall not be automatically considered active recreation areas;
however, the Planning Commission may approve the use of improved wet pond
stormwater facilities such as wet ponds and man-made ponds as active open
space, as long as such facilities also provide recreational and scenic amenities,
such as fountains, gazebos, bridges, seating areas, piers, perimeter trails, etc.,
and that the facilities be appropriately integrated into the landscape by location
and landscaping. Tthe Town encourages attractive integration of such all
stormwater facilities and BMPs into the TND design.
3. Design requirements.
a. The open space shall be consistent with the Town's plans for its park and open
space system as set forth in the Comprehensive Plan, including the establishment
of greenways.
b. All residential lots shall be within ¼ mile pedestrian travel distance (an
approximate five-minute walk) from common active open space.
c. Active open space areas shall be designed as a public gathering place and shall be
located in a manner which affords reasonable access to all residents within the
development. Active open space areas can shall be dispersed throughout the
development, provided that each location is accessible.
d. Common Active Oopen Sspace should be integrated with have an integration
of Active and Ppassive Oopen Sspace and inclusive of natural areas whenever
practical.

recreation areas. Other than Buffer Management Areas (Critical Area only),
areas of restricted use by the residents of the TND shall not satisfy the open
space requirements.
