Planned Unit Developments

Planned Unit Developments (PUD) (Chapter 17.180 of the City Code) encourage the design of well-planned facilities which offer a variety of commercial, residential, or other land uses through creative and imaginative planning. The development and design guidelines that are adopted for each PUD provide for greater flexibility in the design of integrated developments than otherwise possible through strict application of zoning regulations. PUD's typically include the following types of development:

Residential

  • a variety of housing types and site plans
  • accessible open “green spaces,” or common recreational areas
  • an attractive and well-oriented community meeting place or recreational facility

Residential-Business Development

Mixed residential-business developments consisting of compatible uses grouped in a well-designed and coordinated site development, such as:

  • apartments
  • convenience shopping facilities
  • motel-hotel combinations
  • offices
  • commercial recreation facilities

Industrial Development
