18.56.010 Purpose. The purpose of the Planned Development District is
to allow the Planning Commission and the City Council the opportunity to review
large and complex developments within this Community. This designation is
used to protect sensitive land areas, insure reasonable conformance to the
standards established in the underlying zones, address major transportation
difficulties and allow a degree of flexibility not usually associated with
development.
In most cases where sensitive lands, open: space, or park areas are included
within a development, that development, whether commercial, industrial, or
residential, shall be reviewed as a Planned Development District. This
designation may be applied to both Permitted Uses and Conditional Uses in
all zones.
