§ 30.24.090. Special Development Standards.

Table 30.24-1 establishes maximum densities for the principal uses permitted in a residential PUD and specifies the corresponding open space requirements as established in Section 30.24.070. Due to the agricultural nature of the R-A district, additional density would not serve the purpose of the district or Plan; therefore, it is not included. Densities for the districts not listed in Table 30.24-1 are permitted per the development standards in Chapter 30.40. Table 30.24 2 summarizes the basic requirements for a residential PUD as established in this Title.

Table 30.24-1 Special Development Standards
ZONING DISTRICT	PRINCIPAL USE PERMITTED	MAXIMUM DENSITY PER GROSS ACRE	OVERALL OPEN SPACE REQUIRED 1, 2
R-U	Single-Family Dwelling Detached	up to .63 u/a	1.65% of project density multiplied by gross acreage multiplied by 3.5%
R-E	Single-Family Dwelling Detached	up to 2.5 u/a	same as R-U
R-D	Single-Family Dwelling Detached	up to 3.5 u/a	same as R-U
R-1	Single-Family Dwelling, Townhouse	up to 6 u/a	same as R-U
R-T	Single-Family Dwelling, Townhouse	up to 8 u/a	same as R-U
R-2	Single-Family Dwelling, Townhouse	up to 10 u/a	same as R-U
RUD	Single-Family Dwelling, Townhouse	up to 16 u/a (for single-family residential dwellings only)	same as R-U
R-3	Townhouse, Multiple-Family Dwelling	up to 18 u/a	same as R-U
R-4	Townhouse, Multiple-Family Dwelling	up to 32 u/a	same as R-U
1. Required for all development with 10 or more lots or units and all development at 6 or more units per acre regardless of how many lots or units. 2. A reduction to the required open space is permitted (in any district above) with the special use permit on a proportional (pro rata) basis for lots or units within a quarter mile walking distance (1,320′ plus or minus 10%) from a public park that is not separated from the lots or units by a collector street and whose acreage is greater than or equal to the open space requirement; however, in no case shall the reduction exceed 50% of the required open space. If not already established, the public park must be scheduled for development within two years of PUD approval. 3. PUDs in rural residential zoning districts only are exempt from the open space requirement when the total required open space is less than 10,000 square feet, and may request up to a 100 % reduction from the open space requirement with the special use permit, subject to compliance with 30.24.070(c). 4. PUD's are not permitted in the H-2 zoning district.

 

Formula To Calculate Open Space Required: (0.0165) multiplied by (proposed unit density per acre) multiplied by (gross acreage of project) multiplied by (0.35)

Example:

Project consists of 7.5 gross acres and Proposed density is 7.9 units per acre

Calculation for Open Space: (0.0165) multiplied by (7.9 du/ac) multiplied by (7.5 gross acres) multiplied by (0.35) = 0.34 acres of REQUIRED Open Space

Calculation to Convert Acreage Requirements to Square Footage: (43,560) multiplied by (0.34) = 14,810 square feet of REQUIRED Open Space
