Section 5.6. Design Districts
success of these mixed-use areas is directly related to the sensitive master
planning of the site layout.
The P -MUD is appropriate in areas where the land use plan reflects mixed use
as a land use category. A P -MUD may be used to permit new or innovative
concepts in land utilization not permitted by other zoning districts. While
greater flexibility is given to allow special conditions or restrictions that would
not otherwise allow the development to occur, procedures are established to
insure against misuse of increased flexibility.
C. Planned Development District (PDD): The purpose of the Planned
Development District is to promote and encourage innovative development that
is sensitive to surrounding land uses and to the natural environment. If this
necessitates varying from certain standards, the proposed development should
demonstrate community benefits.
The PDD is appropriate in areas where the land use plan reflects the specific
commercial or residential uses proposed in the PDD. A PDD may be used to
permit new or innovative concepts in land utilization not permitted by other
zoning districts. While greater flexibility is given to allow special conditions or
restrictions that would not otherwise allow the development to occur,
procedures are established to insure against misuse of increased flexibility. A
PDD should not be used to:
1. Guarantee specific site or building characteristics within a development;
2. Apply additional development standards to a single site;
3. Vary from certain development standards unless community benefits
outweigh the requested modifications; or
4. Combine commercial and residential land uses. A P -MUD shall be used for
mixed-use developments.
5.6 Design Districts
A. Wolf Pen Creek (WPC)
This district is designed to promote development that is appropriate along Wolf
Pen Creek, which, upon creation was a predominantly open and undeveloped
area challenged by drainage, erosion, and flooding issues. Development
proposals are designed to encourage the public and private use of Wolf Pen
Creek and the development corridor as an active and passive recreational area
while maintaining an appearance consistent with the Wolf Pen Creek Master
Plan.
The following supplemental standards shall apply to this district:
1. Development Criteria
a. This Section is intended to ensure that development occurs in
compliance with the Master Plan for the Wolf Pen Creek Corridor.
Pertinent to appearance is the design of the site, building and
structures, plantings, signs, street hardware, and miscellaneous other
objects that are observed by the public.
b. These criteria are not intended to restrict imagination, innovation, or
variety, but rather to assist in focusing on design principles, which can
result in creative solutions that will develop a satisfactory visual
appearance within the City, preserve taxable values, and promote the
public health, safety, and welfare.
