A.
Each of the districts hereinbefore set forth shall have a separate and distinct counterpart known and herein referred to as a Planned District. A "Planned District" shall be for the purpose of permitting and regulating the uses heretofore permitted in the equivalent district and further provide for and encourage latitude and flexibility in the location of buildings, structures, roads, drives, variations in yards and open spaces all subsequent to approval of the plan by local officials. Planned Districts require attention to buffers, drainage, street patterns, landscaping and architecture. Reference will be made to the City's Subdivision Ordinance (See Chapter 410 of this Title). The purpose 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.

A.
The
zoning of land in Maryville to one (1) of the planned districts ("RP-1"
to "MP-2", inclusive) shall be for the purpose of requiring orderly
development on a quality level generally equal to that of the equivalent
standard zoning districts, but permitting variations from the normal
and established development techniques. The use of planned zoning
procedures is intended to encourage large scale development tracts,
innovative and imaginative site planning, conservation of natural
resources and minimum waste of land. The following are specific conditions
of planned zoning:
1.
A proposal to rezone land to a planned district shall be subject
to the same criteria relative to compliance with master plans, land
use policies, neighborhood compatibility, adequacy of streets and
utilities and other elements, as is normal in rezoning deliberations.
2.
The submittal by the Developer and the approval by the City of development
plans represents a firm commitment by the Developer that development
will indeed follow the approved plans in concept, intensity of use,
aesthetic levels and quantities of open space.
3.
Deviations in yard requirements, setbacks and relationship between buildings are acceptable and may be approved within the limits set out in "Standards of Development" in Section 405.360, if it is deemed that other amenities or conditions will be gained to the extent that an equal or higher quality of development will result than under standard zoning procedures.
4.
Residential areas will be planned and developed in a manner that
will produce more useable open space, better recreational opportunities,
safer, more attractive neighborhoods than under standard zoning and
development techniques.
5.
Commercial areas will be planned and developed so as to result in
attractive, viable and safe centers and clusters, as opposed to strip
pattern along thoroughfares. Control of vehicular access, architectural
quality, landscaping and signs will be exercised to soften the impact
on nearby residential neighborhoods, and to assure minimum adverse
effects on the street system and other services of the community.
6.
The Developer will be given latitude in using innovative techniques
in the development of land not feasible under application of standard
zoning requirements.
7.
Planned zoning shall not be used as a refuge from the requirements
of the equivalent district as to intensity of land use, amount of
open space or other established development criteria.
8.
No use will be permitted in the planned district that is not clearly
permitted in the equivalent district.
9.
Any building or portion thereof may be owned in condominium under
appropriate Missouri Statutes.
[R.O. 2008 §405.360; Ord. No. 4984 §1, 6-10-1991]
A.
The
maximum height of buildings and structures shall be as set out in
the equivalent district.
B.
The
intensity of land use, the floor area and bulk of buildings, the concentration
of population, the percentage of lot coverage, the amount of open
space, light and air shall be generally equal to that required in
the equivalent zoning district.
C.
The
density of residential dwelling units, the parking requirements and
the performance standards shall be the same as in the equivalent district.
D.
The
permitted uses shall be the same as those permitted in the equivalent
district, provided that limitations may be placed on the occupancy
of certain premises, if such limitations may be placed on the occupancy
of certain premises, if such limitation is deemed essential to the
health, safety or general welfare of the community.
E.
The
Planning and Zoning Commission may, in the process of approving preliminary
and final plans, approve deviations from the minimum standards in
Districts "C-O" through "M-2" as follows:
1.
Setbacks of buildings and paved areas from a public street may be
reduced to seventy-five percent (75%) of the ordinance requirement.
2.
Setbacks of buildings and paved areas from a property line of the
project (other than a street line) may be reduced to eight-five percent
(85%) of the ordinance requirement.
3.
Side yards between buildings may be reduced to zero.
4.
Setbacks of buildings and paved areas from a freeway right-of-way
may be reduced to five (5) feet.
5.
A portion of the parking area required under this Chapter may remain
unimproved in proportion to area of building being used. As additional
floor space is used, additional pavement must be installed.
6.
The foregoing deviations may be granted by the Planning and Zoning
Commission only where there is ample evidence that said deviation
will not adversely affect neighboring property, nor will it constitute
the mere granting of a privilege. Reduction of setbacks or other open
space shall be compensated by additional open space in other appropriate
portions of the project. In all cases, such deviations shall be in
keeping with good planning principles, and must be specifically set
out in the minutes of the Commission, as well as on plans and other
exhibits in the record.
