Oakwood View page 5 All single family lots meet minimum size requirements. The planned unit development provides the flexibility to allow the group residence lot to be created without the normal frontage and width. Providing for a future road extension avoids an excessive permanent cul de sac length. 4. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will not overburden the City's service capacity. The creation of ten single family homes and two units for a group residence will not overburden city services. 5. Traffic generation by the proposed use is within capabilities of streets serving the property.

The application should be compared to these purposes in order to justify the flexibility allowed by a PUD. Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this section of the Zoning Ordinance is to provide for the grouping of lots or buildings for development as an integrated, coordinated unit as opposed to traditional parcel by parcel, piecemeal, or sporadic approach to development. This section is intended to introduce flexibility of site design and architecture for the conservation of land and open space through clustering of lots, buildings and activities, which promote the goals outlined in the Comprehensive Plan or serve another public purpose. It is further intended that planned unit developments are to be characterized by central management, integrated planning and architecture, joint and common use and maintenance of parking, open space and other similar facilities, and harmonious selection and efficient distribution of uses. A residential conditional use permit PUD may include a variety of residential units, including single family and multifamily units as long as it complies with the density requirements. A non - residential conditional use permit PUD may include a variety of commercial and /or industrial uses. A PUD that includes a mix of residential and commercial /industrial uses must utilize the PUD zoning district as described in Sec. 9 Subd. 3 of this ordinance.
