3) Preserved open space land shall be maintained for the purposes for which it <br />was set aside. If preserved open space was set aside for agricultural purposes <br />or for natural habitat, a plan shall be submitted which will indicate how the <br />land will be maintained or returned to a natural state and who will be <br />responsible for plan implementation. Developers shall provide copies of <br />proposed homeowners’ association declarations and conservation <br />easements to the city describing land management practices to be followed <br />by the party or parties responsible for maintaining the preserved open space <br />for the city’s review prior to recording of these documents. <br />4) Where applicable, a homeowners’ association shall be established to <br />permanently maintain all residual open space and recreational facilities. The <br />homeowners’ association’s declaration must guaranty continuing <br />maintenance and give assessment rights to the city if there is lack of the <br />maintenance. The homeowners’ association declaration shall be submitted <br />to the city as part of the documentation requirements of LEC 105.12.1080(c) for <br />an open space PUD final plan. <br />b) Septic system design standards. <br />1) In general. The placement and design of all septic systems shall conform to <br />the requirements of the county. <br />2) Individual septic drain fields. Sites for individual septic drain fields, both <br />primary and secondary, must be located entirely within each lot and cannot <br />be located within any easement. <br />3) Communal drain fields. <br />a. Communal drain fields may be partially or completely located in an <br />area designated as preserved open space, provided the ground cover is <br />restored to its natural condition after installation, and recreational <br />uses are prohibited above or within 50 feet of communal drain fields <br />or as approved by the city engineer. <br />b. Communal drain fields, if installed, shall be professionally <br />maintained, and are acceptable once legally sufficient documentation <br />has been provided by the developer to ensure such maintenance will <br />continue in perpetuity. <br />c) Building standards. <br />1) Principal structures within open space PUDs shall not exceed 2 1/2 stories or <br />35 feet in height. <br />2) It is desired that the structures within neighborhoods convey a particular <br />architectural style with similar building components, materials, and roof <br />pitches. The PUD overlay ordinance crafted for each individual open space <br />PUD should establish minimum architectural standards for the <br />neighborhood. <br />3) All wells shall be located a minimum of 50 feet from septic tanks and septic <br />drain fields.
