The identified areas may <br />be located within or outside of the Metropolitan Urban Service Area, <br />and require installation of private well and septic systems until urban <br />services are available� Development densities shall not exceed one <br />dwelling unit per ten (10) acres� The intent of the District is to promote <br />the preservation of large parcels that are unencumbered by inefficient <br />building and road layouts, and to give notice to land owners that future <br />extension of a full range of urban services into the area is likely� The <br />pending future land uses could be any use consistent with the City’s <br />Comprehensive Plan� <br />Planned Unit Development District <br />The purpose of the Planned Unit Development (PUD) district is to <br />offer enhanced flexibility to develop a site through relaxation of most <br />normal zoning district standards to allow for a greater variety of uses, <br />internal transfers of density, construction phasing and a potential for <br />lower development costs. In exchange for this enhanced flexibility, <br />it is expected that the development plan will result in a significantly <br />higher quality and more sensitive proposal than would have been <br />the case with the standard zoning districts� The uses within the PUD <br />must be consistent with the land uses designated for the area in the <br />Comprehensive Plan� <br />City Overlay Districts <br />There is a floodplain overlay district and a shoreland overlay district in <br />the City of Hugo (see Map xx -- Floodplain and Map xx -- Shoreland)� <br />Each of these overlay districts adhere to the underlying zoning <br />district but apply a more stringent application of allowed uses and <br />intensification of uses due to the presence of significant natural <br />resources� The purpose of these overlay districts is to preserve and <br />protect the vital natural resources in the City through more carefully <br />monitoring development in the overlay district areas�
