That the final PUD Plan meets items a, c, d, and i from the identified PUD objectives identified in Section 105.12.1130. Planned unit developments should not be allowed simply for the purpose of increasing overall density or allowing development that otherwise could not be approved. a) Innovation in land development techniques that may be more suitable for a given parcel than conventional approaches. The shared access drive and stormwater ponding areas allow for more efficient use of land. c) Establishment of appropriate transitions between differing land uses. This overall PUD provides a buffer between the interstate highway and residential uses. There are significant site specific plantings proposed to buffer the adjacent residential uses and to the most reasonable extent possible, existing trees are being preserved within the buffer area. d) Provision of more adequate, usable, and suitably located open space, recreational amenities, natural resource protection and other public facilities than would otherwise be provided under conventional land development techniques. This is achieved with shared stormwater ponding. i) Creation of more efficient provision of public utilities and services, lessened demand on transportation, and/or the promotion of energy resource conservation. With the proposed private access drive, there will be less demand on public services. 13. That the site will be served by public utilities, not have a detrimental impact on traffic, supply adequate off-street parking. 14. That the proposed land uses will be compatible both in terms of internal site plans, and with regard to adjacent land uses. 15. That the site complies with wetland, stormwater management requirements.
