AU6-27 -1997 15:09 <br />MIIV QRANDUM <br />NAC 612 595 9837 P.02/05 <br />TO: Joel Hanson <br />PROM: Stephen Grittman <br />DATE: June 23, 1995 <br />RE: Little Canada - Planned Unit Development Zoning <br />PILE NO: 758.10 <br />This memorandum is intended to clarify the use of Planned Unit Development as a Zoning <br />District, particularly as it would relate to land use controls on the St. Paul Board of Water <br />Cunnnriksiune 's property. The Pls,uucd Unit Development process can be utilized in two ways. <br />The first, and most common, is as a Conditional Use within the individual Zoning Districts. An <br />example would be the Heritage Office Park project, where the developer intends to develop a <br />condominium office project and avoid the setback issues and standard lot divisions which the base <br />zoning district would require. However, the base zoning district (in this case, 1 -P) controls from <br />a land use standpoint. Only the use allowed in the I -P District would be allowed in the Heritage <br />Office Park PUD. <br />The second use of PUD is as a base zoning district itself. Under Section 915 of the Zoning <br />Ordinance, all uses allowed by any of the districts in the Zoning Ordinance become allowable in <br />a PUD District. The question becomes one of how to control which uses are appropriate in the <br />area where a PUD District is applied. Since the PUD District is applied by using the regulations <br />of the Amendment/CUP Section 921, and an extensive set of procedural requirements in Section <br />923, the developer must show that the proposed use is consistent with present and future land uses, <br />and that it is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Thus, the land use proposals of the <br />Comprehensive Plan would control the range of allowable uses in a PUD District. <br />Page 1 <br />
