Title 17 LAND USE
Chapter 17.126 PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT (PUD)
17.126.170 Amendment to the Development Plan.
A. Any request to make a major change to an approved Development Plan shall
be processed as a new application for rezoning to the PUD District as outlined
in Sections 17.126.040 and
17.126.050 of this Chapter. The following would be considered major
changes to the Development Plan:
1. Increased density;
2. Decreased perimeter setbacks;
3. Major changes in building location, arrangement of parking, or open space;
4. Change in unit type (townhouse to apartments, etc.):
5. Projects over 20 acres:
a. Over 10% reduction in area of open space;
b. Over 10% increase in lot coverage;
6. Projects under 20 acres:
a.
Over 5% reduction in area of open space;
b.
Over 5% increase in lot coverage.
No major change shall occur unless the Board of
County Commissioners, after review by the Planning Commission, finds that the
proposed major change is consistent with the efficient development and
preservation of the entire Planned Unit Development, does not affect in a
substantially adverse manner either the enjoyment of land abutting upon or
across a street from the Planned Unit Development or the public interest, and is
not granted solely to confer a special benefit upon any person.
B. The Planning Director may approve minor modifications from the recorded
Development Plan in the approval of a Plot Plan. Such minor changes shall be
limited to siting of buildings, interior access or arrangement of parking, open
space, and/or errors of a clerical, typographical, or format nature. The
applicant shall substantiate to the Planning Director that the minor
modification is required by engineering or other circumstances not foreseen
during the approval of the Development Plan. The Planning Director shall not
approve a minor modification if the modification does not substantially conform
to the approved Development Plan.
