Chapter 9
The regulations set forth in this chapter detail the process and submission ofMASTER PLANNED DEVELOPMENTS Master Planned Developments to the Town. These type of developments offer more flexibility in the design and placement of structures and emphasize open agricultural space, maintaining the spirit of the Deweyville Town General Plan 9.1 Purpose and Objectives The purpose of the Master Planned Development (MPD) is to encourage imaginative and efficient utilization of land in residential development and to further the objectives of the Deweyville Town General Plan. By providing for greater flexibility in the location of buildings on the land, it also allows the consolidation of development and the vast expansion of permanent, common, recreational and agricultural type open spaces, the clustering of dwelling units and the efficient use of those public facilities required in connection with new residential development. These provisions are intended to create attractive and desirable environments within the residential and agricultural areas of the Town. This chapter should be considered an enhancement to the regulations of chapter 8 as contained in this code, and more particularly, section 8D.1. These enhancements are negotiable between the developer and the Town. The effective and innovative application of these standards may result in bonuses to the density and structural placement regulations found in chapter 7 and elsewhere in this code. All MPD proposals must demonstrate also, that they can meet the minimum requirements or conditions of any underlying zone or other regulations contained in this code. An MPD can not be used as an instrument or vehicle to accomplish a primary use that would have been prohibited if the project were to be submitted and applied for as a conventional subdivision. The Planning Commission and/or Town Council may accept or reject a MPD proposal on the basis of the quality of materials used in the project, as well as the architectural design and serviceability of the project. All MPD developments shall be designed to "fit in" and protect the character of the neighborhood and rural atmosphere of the Town. In considering MPD applications, every effort will be made to see that the neighborhood and Town is enhanced by the project. Any proposed subdivision project involving more than five (5) acres, or having more than 10 residential units or lots divided, must be submitted as an MPD, unless specifically exempted by an appeal to the Appeal Authority. Subdivisions containing fewer than 10 units (minor subdivisions) may be exempt from this requirement, unless the applicant wishes to be reviewed as a minor MPD as per this chapter. Complete planning of the entire project in all of its phases is critical in the proper application of the MPD process. All MPD regulations are in addition to the subdivision regulations of chapter 8 and the MPD may be processed concurrently with the subdivision approval if the applicant wishes. Also, refer to Chapter 4 of this code for Planning Commission MPD approval procedures and issues as well as those of this chapter. 9.2 Uses A MPD may be allowed as a conditional use in all residential and agricultural zones as designated herein, and the MPD development plan shall become supplementary to the provisions of the zones in which the MPD is located, although the Town shall not be required to enforce any of the restrictive covenants recorded pursuant to this Article. 9.2.1 Zones Allowing Attached Units Attached units shall be allowed in all residential zones. 9.2.2 Types of Developments Master Planned Developments include cluster subdivisions, planned developments, twin homes, condominiums, planned developments using manufactured housing, combinations of housing types such as single units and multiple units. 9.2.3 Zone Use Limitations Uses permitted in the MPD shall be limited to those uses permitted in the zone in which the MPD is allowed. 9.3 Density The base density in lots and/or units per net acre as defined in this section of this Chapter for a MPD shall be as follows: (a) RR-35 1.16 Units/Acre (c ) RR-5 0.2 Units/Acre 9.3.1 Base Density Exclusions In determining the maximum base density of the project, the following areas shall not be included within the boundaries of any lot laid out or counted in determining the maximum base density, except as provided herein: Town of Deweyville Land Management and Development Code Chapter 9 Master Planned Developments Page 9-3 (a) All road rights-of-way existing or to be dedicated to the town; (b) All acreage having a slope of fifteen percent (15%) or greater; (c ) All acreage covered by natural streams, lakes or ponds; (d) All areas where native soils are classified by the United States Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, as having severe limitations as foundations for low buildings and all native soils having no interpretations. If the developer submits with his application an engineering report that defines the soils limitations and detailed engineering plans that will reduce the possible hazard to an acceptable standard to the Town, the Town Council may consider this area for inclusion in the maximum base density. These soils include areas with high water table, areas with high shrink-swell potential, areas subject to flooding, and areas having a high degree of slope. 9.3.2 Density Bonuses The Town Council may, upon recommendation of the Planning Commission, grant an amenity density bonus and/or an impact density bonus, which may allow the developer of a MPD to exceed the maximum base density for the zone district. 9.3.2.1 Amenity Density Bonus An amenity density bonus shall be defined as an increase over the maximum base density for amenities included in a Master Planned Development. Amenities for a particular project may vary from those of another project because of project type and market for which the project is being built. Types of amenities may include dense landscapes, yard lights, tennis courts, trails, equestrian facilities, recreation areas and parks, permanent open space, common useable agricultural or farming open spaces or other similar features. Such features may be an amenity for one project, but a liability for another. The Town shall consider the total project and the proposed amenities, and determine the amount of amenity density bonus a project may receive. An amenity density bonus may be based on any of the following: (a) Building and Project Design. Design considerations shall give comprehensive and critical attention to architectural design and style including unit types, architectural theme, building materials and colors, fence and wall treatment, solar considerations, project entrances, orientation of buildings to amenities within the development, and visual appearance of the development from outside the project. (b) Provision and Protection of Open Space. This shall mean the provision and protection of permanent common open space or agricultural open space which is distinguishable from a standard subdivision by its quantity or quality and which is readily accessible to the residents of the development. Credit will be given for innovative clustering designs that maximize open space and preserve the scenic views and beauty of the community. Open space placed in conservation easements for perpetuity will be valued highly in the MPD process. (c ) Innovative Site Plan. An innovative site plan shall mean a site plan which features a street pattern which discourages through traffic, ensures the privacy and security of the residents of the development and is in harmony with the topography and other natural features. An innovative site plan could also include a variety of lot sizes, setbacks, and dwelling unit types. (d) Interior Amenities. Interior amenities shall mean the provision of private recreational facilities such as tennis courts, recreational centers, jogging paths, trails, water features, etc., which are accessible to the residents of the development; as well as overall street scape, including street and sidewalk treatment, street trees, overall landscaping, signs, graphics, mail boxes, yard lighting, garage placement, car port screening, and dwelling entrances. (e) Substantial Public Benefit. Substantial public benefit shall mean the provision of public facilities that are both unusual in character and serve the needs of an area greater than the immediate development. No density increase for substantial public benefit may be approved unless the public facilities provided are in excess of the typically required street improvements, sidewalks or trails, utilities and drainage facilities. 9.3.2.2 Total Density In no case shall the total density, including the maximum base density (with exclusions) and all density bonuses, exceed the following for the zone in which the proposed MPD is located: Zone Dwelling Units per net Acre: (a) RR-35 1.33 Units/Acre (b ) RR-5 0.23 Units/Acre 9.4 Minimum Area Requirements 9.4.1 Area The following minimum MPD area requirements shall also apply for each zone: Zone Minimum Area: (a) RR-35 5 Acres (b) MU5 50 Acres 9.4.2 Exceptions The Town Council may, upon recommendation of the Planning Commission, allow a MPD development on smaller parcels if the Town Council finds that the proposed MPD meets the standards of Section 9.5.4, and that the benefits of such action outweigh any potential negative effects on surrounding properties. 9.5 Preliminary Development Plan 9.5.1 Development Review Application The developer of a proposed MPD shall submit a Development Review Application, with a fee as established by Town Council Resolution, and a preliminary development plan to the Town. 9.5.2 Application Form The form and contents of the preliminary development plan shall be as follows: (a) The preliminary development plan shall be drawn to a scale not smaller than sixty (60) feet to the inch, and shall be on standard twenty-four (24) inch by thirty-six (36) inch paper or smaller.
