The purpose of the PUD district is to provide opportunities for creative development and design flexibility by allowing modification of lot and building area, width, setback and other dimensional requirements. Planned unit developments (PUDs) shall be developed in accordance with a concept plan and a PUD development plan, and in accordance with this article and the city subdivision regulations (article V of this chapter). A PUD shall be consistent with the intent and purpose of the city comprehensive plan and this article, and shall not adversely affect property adjacent to the land area to be developed. (b) Standards. (1) Land will be zoned into the PUD zoning district only upon approval of a concept plan for the PUD, pursuant to the procedure set forth in this section. A PUD will be authorized on land in a PUD zoning district only upon approval of an ordinance rezoning the land to PUD, pursuant to the procedure set forth in this section. (2) The uses allowed in a PUD shall be limited to land uses consistent with the city's comprehensive plan and land use map, and to those uses identified in the concept plan for the PUD zoning district and the ordinance established for the PUD. (3) The area of land to be included in a PUD shall be in uniform control of the applicant. (4) A PUD shall be designed to form a desirable unified environment within its proposed boundaries, including uniform design elements, landscaping, lighting and signage.

Any permitted density shall be consistent with the city's comprehensive plan and not adversely affect the public health, safety and welfare. (9) More than one principal building may be constructed on a lot within a PUD if authorized by the council. Unless otherwise permitted by the council, a PUD shall comply with the schedules of dimensional regulations set forth in this article, except that individual lots shall have no less than 50 percent of the minimum area for similar uses.
