It is the intent of this district to provide flexibility from conventional zoning regulations with increased public review for planned development district projects in order to:

A. Encourage well planned, efficient urban development.

B. Allow a planned and coordinated mix of land uses, which are compatible and are harmonious, but previously discouraged by conventional zoning procedures.

C. Encourage more creative, higher quality and more ecological urban design, with special consideration given to projects which incorporate desirable design features, including but limited to underground parking, orientation, or design to take advantage of solar energy, environmental preservation, historic preservation, handicapped accessible structures, unique use of open spaces, or other desirable design features.

D. Improve communication and cooperation among the City, land developers, and interested residents in the urbanization of new lands and the renewal of existing deteriorated areas.

After the planned development request has been reviewed, the City Planning and Zoning Commission shall make a recommendation to the City Council and, if applicable, to the County Commission, on the requested rezoning.

The final development plan may be submitted in conjunction with the initial development plan for concurrent approval on any subareas the developer is ready to commit to a final plat. All the information required for both an initial and final development plan must be shown for the area submitted for concurrent approval, except that the developer may reference the requirements of one of the traditional zoning districts as the development standard for a particular subarea.

Signs shall be posted on the property for a continuous period of five (5) days immediately prior to any public hearing held by the Planning and Zoning Commission or City Council to consider any final development plan. Said signs shall be furnished by the Department of Planning and Building Services and posted by the applicant in the numbers and locations prescribed by the Director.
