CHAPTER 19.80: PLANNED DEVELOPMENT (P) ZONES
19.80.030 Establishment of districts–Permitted and conditional uses.
19.80.010 Purpose.
A. The
planned development (P) zoning district is intended to provide a means
of guiding land development or redevelopment of the City that is
uniquely suited for planned coordination of land uses and to provide for
a greater flexibility of land use intensity and design because of
accessibility, ownership patterns, topographical considerations, and
community design objectives.
B. The
planned development zoning district is specifically intended to
encourage variety in the development pattern of the community; to
promote a more desirable living environment; to encourage creative
approaches in land development; to provide a means of reducing the
amount of improvements required in development through better design and
land planning, to conserve natural features, to facilitate a more
aesthetic and efficient use of open spaces, and to encourage the
creation of public or private common open space.

19.80.020 Applicability of Regulations.
No
building, structure or land shall be used and no building or structure
shall be erected, enlarged or structurally altered, or demolished, in
any planned development zoning district, except in accordance with the
provisions set forth in this chapter.
(Ord. 14-2125, § 8 (part), 2014; Ord. 2085, § 2 (part), 2011)
19.80.030 Establishment of Districts–Permitted and Conditional Uses.
A. Planned
development zoning districts may be established, modified or removed
from the zoning map, and the regulations applicable to any planned
development district may be established, modified or deleted in accord
with the procedures described in this chapter.
B. All
P districts shall be identified on the zoning map with the letter
coding "P" followed by a specific reference to the general type of use
allowed in the particular planning development zoning district. For
example, a planned development zoning district in which the uses are to
be general commercial in nature, would be designated "P(CG)." A planned
development zoning district in which the uses are intended to be a mix
of general commercial and residential would be designated "P(CG/Res)."
C. Permitted
uses in a P zoning district shall consist of all uses which are
permitted in the zoning district which constitutes the designation
following the letter coding "P." For example, the permitted uses in a
P(CG) zoning district are the same uses which are permitted in a CG
zoning district for sties with a mixed-use residential designation,
Section
19.80.030F shall apply.
D. Conditional
uses in a P zoning district shall consist of all uses which require the
issuance of a conditional use permit in the zoning district which
constitutes the designation following the letter coding "P." For
example, the conditional uses in a P(CG) zoning district are the same
uses which require a conditional use permit in CG zoning district. Each
conditional use in a P zoning district requires a separate conditional
use permit for sites with a mixed-use residential designation, Section
19.80.030F shall apply.
E. The
general category of uses in a P zone shall be defined at the time of
the conceptual plan, and shall be consistent with the adopted General
Plan relative to the property in the application. The development
standards and regulations of the permitted and conditional uses shall be
established in conjunction with the approval of the conceptual and
definitive plans.
F. For sites with a mixed-use residential designation the following shall apply:
1. For sites in the Monta Vista Village Special Area, residential shall be a permitted use.
2. If
a site is listed as a Priority Housing Site in the City’s adopted
Housing Element of the General Plan, then residential development that
does not exceed the number of units designated for the site in the
Housing Element shall be a permitted use.
3. Residential
development on sites not designated as Priority Housing Sites in the
City’s adopted Housing Element of the General Plan and residential
development on a Priority Housing Site that exceeds the number of units
designated for that Priority Housing Site shall be a conditional use.
4. Priority Housing Sites shall be shown on the City’s zoning map.
G. For
sites which require a specific plan prior to development approval, the
permitted and conditional uses shall be as shown in the specific plan.
(Ord. 14-2125, § 8 (part), 2014; Ord. 2085, § 2 (part), 2011)
19.80.040 Zoning or Prezoning.
A. Application. The applicant for a P zoning district shall, in addition to information required per
Chapter 19.12,
at the time of the application, submit to the Director of Community
Development a conceptual development plan, which shall include:
1. A general description of the proposed uses,
2. The proposed traffic-circulation system,
3. A topographical map of the site and the neighboring properties,
B. Process and Review Authority.
1. Applications for the zoning, prezoning or rezoning of property shall be processed in the manner prescribed in
Chapter 19.152.
C. Findings. No such ordinance may be adopted unless, in addition to making the findings required by
Chapter 19.152, the following findings are made:
1. That
the conceptual development plan attached to the application is
consistent with both the General Plan and any underlying zoning
designation which regulates the site;
2. That
the conceptual development plan provides for an organized and unified
system of land uses and land use intensities which would be compatible
with the surrounding neighborhood;
3. That
the conceptual development plan for a residential use ensures that the
proposed development provides adequate active and passive oriented open
space within the development to satisfy the needs of future residents
and, further, that the proposed development provides adequate
landscaping that will function in a manner which will enhance the
individual development and the community as a whole;
4. That
the conceptual development plan ensures that the location of the site
with respect to major thoroughfares and uses outside the zone would not
create undue and unreasonable traffic congestion in the area;
5. That
the conceptual development plan makes provisions for adequate parking,
waste disposal and undergrounding of utilities.
D. Modifications. Any modification of the conceptual plan requires the submission of a rezoning application.
