The Agricultural District is intended to provide a location
for the land situated on the fringe of the urban area that is used
for agricultural purposes but may be undergoing urbanization in the
foreseeable future. Therefore, the agricultural uses and activities
should not be detrimental to urban land use and is intended to be
used solely for the raising of crops, livestock, orchards or forestry.
However, no commercial production of livestock or poultry is permitted.
This Section shall not apply to the erection, maintenance, repair,
alteration or extension of farm buildings or farm structures used
for such purposes and shall define all land presently unimproved in
any way unless otherwise specifically identified on the Zoning District
Map. It is not intended that this "A" district provide a location
for a lower standard of residential, commercial or industrial development
than is authorized in other districts. Any improvement, reclassification
or surveying for purposes other than "R-1" must have zoning approval.
This regulation is designed to stabilize all unimproved areas and
to bring them under the auspices of the Laurie Planning and Zoning
Commission.

A.
General. Each of the districts aforementioned shall have
a separate and distinct counterpart known and herein referred to as
a Planned Unit District. A Planned Unit District shall be for the
purpose of permitting and regulating the uses heretofore permitted
in the equivalent district and further providing for and encouraging
latitude and flexibility in the location of buildings, structures,
roads, drives, variations in yards and open spaces, etc., subsequent
to approval of the plan by local officials. The intent is to allow
development of tracts of land to their fullest extent and at the same
time observe the general intent and spirit of these regulations. All
planned districts shall have a minimum area of five (5) acres except
planned manufactured home districts shall have a minimum area of ten
(10) acres and access to a public highway or street and planned unit
development districts shall have a minimum of twenty (20) acres. In
general, the height and bulk of buildings, the amount of open space,
light and air, the concentration of population, the parking and loading
requirements shall be equal to those in the corresponding equivalent
district. The uses permitted shall be the same as in the equivalent
district. Variations and departures from normal practice may, however,
be permitted. Each building need not face on a public street and more
than one (1) building may be located on a lot. Buildings may be constructed
on platted tracts which are smaller than the minimum lot size requirements
where other adjacent permanent open space is provided. Buildings may
be grouped in clusters or around courts and cul-de-sacs and private
drives may be permitted in lieu of public streets. Buildings may be
located closer to lot lines than otherwise permitted by approval of
the Planning and Zoning Commission, provided such buildings are architecturally
suitable for such a relationship to adjoining buildings or property
and do not impede access by emergency service vehicles. Any building
or portion thereof may be owned as a condominium in accordance with
Sections 448.005 — 448.4-120, RSMo. The planned districts shall
be as follows:

1.
Procedure for rezoning property to a planned unit district. A tract of land may be zoned for a planned large-scale district
only upon application by the owner or his/her agent and only upon
approval of a development plan for the tract. The proponent of a planned
development shall prepare and submit to the Commission a development
plan containing the following elements:
a.
The boundaries of the tract to be zoned and the area adjacent for
a distance of not less than two hundred (200) feet. The proponent
shall supply the names of all such adjacent landowners.
b.
The existing topography of the tract.
c.
The proposed location and arrangement of buildings, structures and
parking areas; existing and proposed streets, drives and other public
ways; public property; drainage; easements; water lines; sewer lines;
landscaping and other features of the proposed development.
d.
Sufficient approximate dimensions to indicate the relationship between
buildings, streets, drives and property lines.
e.
Preliminary elevation and plan drawings of proposed buildings if
deemed by the Commission to be in the public interest.
2.
Public hearing. The Commission shall advertise and
hold a public hearing on the plan as provided in Section 89.060, RSMo.
At such time as the development plan meets with the approval of the
Commission, the same shall be duly approved, properly endorsed and
identified and sent on to the Governing Body for action. Upon final
approval of the final development plan and the rezoning of the tract
as required herein, construction may proceed in conformance with the
plan. Deviation from the plan shall require a resubmittal to the Commission
and Governing Body in the same manner as the original rezoning procedure.
The final development plan shall follow all applicable procedures,
standards and requirements governing the subdivision of land. No building
permit shall be issued until a final plat of the proposed development
is approved and recorded.
B.
"RP-M" Planned Manufactured Home Residential District
1.
General. A planned manufactured home residential
community shall be for the purpose of permitting the establishment
of attractive and well located manufactured home parks in the City.
The intent is to promote the development of sound and well planned
manufactured home residential communities that will not cause a depreciation
of adjacent values, create congestion, result in overcrowding of the
land or in any manner be contrary to the basic intent and purposes
of this Chapter.
2.
The procedure for rezoning property to a Planned Manufactured Home
Residential District is the same as for other planned districts. However,
prior to the rezoning and approval of the final manufactured home
residential plan, the Commission and the Governing Body must find
that the plan provides for meeting the following minimum requirements:
a.
Lot area. Each lot within the manufactured home
district has a minimum area of five thousand (5,000) square feet.
b.
Width of lot. Each lot within the manufactured home
court has a minimum width of fifty (50) feet.
c.
Spacing of manufactured homes. There is a minimum
distance of twenty (20) feet between each manufactured home and ten
(10) feet from the side lot line.
d.
Front yard. No manufactured home is located closer
than thirty (30) feet to the public highway or street right-of-way
line on which the planned manufactured home park abuts.
e.
Parking space. There is at least one (1) off-street
parking space located on each manufactured home lot.
f.
Interior streets. All interior streets have a minimum
right-of-way of forty (40) feet and a paved driving surface width
of not less than twenty-four (24) feet with eight (8) feet on each
side of right-of-way. Interior streets, as a minimum, have a three
(3) inch concrete or compacted asphalt surface.
g.
Sewer and water. All manufactured home units are
to be connected to the City sewer and water systems if available as
determined by the City.
h.
Fire hydrants. These are located in accordance with
the current specifications of the National Board of Fire Underwriters
provided the City Water Department has the capability to supply the
water required to meet these specifications. In no case shall any
manufactured home be located further than six hundred (600) feet from
a fire hydrant when available.
i.
Tie downs and storm shelters. All manufactured homes
within the district are to be tied down. Although they are not required
to do so, developers are encouraged to equip the planned manufactured
home park with a storm shelter meeting or exceeding FEMA 361 requirements.
3.
No manufactured home shall be placed in a planned manufactured home
leased community until the final manufactured home residential plan
has been approved by the Governing Body and until the streets and
other physical improvements as shown on the final manufactured home
residential plan have been installed. The Commission and the Governing
Body will allow a manufactured home development only after determination
that the development will not be detrimental to or endanger the public
health, safety, morals or general welfare.
4.
Permitted accessory uses. All uses and accessory
uses permitted in the "R-1" Residential District shall be permitted
accessory uses in the "RP-M" District. In addition, the following
accessory uses shall be permitted in the "RP-M" District:
C.
"PUDD" Planned Unit Development District.
1.
A Planned Unit Development District is a district option that provides
a degree of flexibility to larger scale developments than would normally
be the case in a single zoning district. The intent is to provide
the ability to mix land uses, modify regulatory design standards and
develop a particular theme. This provides advantages to the developer,
but also to the community by ensuring an enhancement of the developed
area with a cohesive or unified nature of such a large development.
A "PUDD" District shall have a minimum area of twenty (20) acres unless
the Commission determines that topographic or other circumstances
warrant a slightly smaller area.
2.
The use of land shall be in general conformance with the permitted uses of the zoning district in which the proposed "PUDD" is to be located. The proposed "PUDD" shall comply with the requirements set forth in Chapter 405 of this Title unless otherwise provided for in this Section.
3.
The procedure for rezoning property to a "PUD" is the same as set forth in Section 405.150(A). However, the proponent of a "PUD" shall prepare and submit to the Commission the following additional information:
a.
The substance of any covenants, grants of easements, development
controls or restrictions or other devices proposed to be imposed upon
the use of land, buildings and structures and facilities.
b.
Proposed phasing plan or stages of development.
c.
The number, size and location of all lots, land uses and structures.
d.
Estimated total and type of residential units.
e.
Amount of land to be dedicated to each residential land use.
f.
Estimated total building square footage and percentage of building
coverage by commercial uses.
g.
Proposed setbacks, height requirements and lot sizes listed with
clear representation that they do or do not differ from those required
by this Chapter.
h.
Any other information deemed necessary by the Commission to adequately
illustrate the proposed development.
