II, common definitions, words, and phrases <br />used in this article shall be interpreted so as to give them the same meaning as they have <br />in common usage throughout this Code and as may be found in LEC 1.08. <br />HISTORY <br />Adopted by Ord. 08-253 on 11/3/2021 <br />105.12.1010 Initiation Of Proceedings <br />The owner of property on which an open space PUD is proposed shall file the applicable <br />application for a PUD by paying the fees set forth in LEC 1.12.010 and submitting a completed <br />application form and supporting documents as set forth on the application form and within <br />this section. Complete applications shall be reviewed by city commissions as deemed <br />necessary by the director of planning community development director and be acted upon <br />by the city council. If a proposed open space PUD is denied, any subsequent application for <br />a substantially similar PUD within one year of the date of denial shall fully address all <br />findings which supported the denial prior to being accepted as complete. <br />HISTORY <br />Adopted by Ord. 08-253 on 11/3/2021 <br />105.12.1020 Reflection On The Official Zoning Map <br />A. PUD provisions provide an optional method of regulating land use which permits <br />flexibility from standard regulating provisions. Establishment of a PUD shall require <br />adoption of an ordinance creating an overlay zoning district atop the boundaries of <br />the development area. For each PUD district, a specific ordinance shall be adopted <br />establishing all rules which shall supersede underlying zoning. Issues not <br />specifically addressed by the PUD overlay district shall be governed by the <br />underlying zoning district regulations. <br />B. All open space preservation developments approved prior to October 4, 2016 shall be <br />allowed to continue per the original conditions of approval. <br />HISTORY <br />Adopted by Ord. 08-253 on 11/3/2021 <br />105.12.1030 Prerequisites For Open Space PUDs <br />A. Only land zoned as agricultural, rural residential, or rural estate may be considered <br />for establishment of an open space planned unit development.
