§ 3372.01. Purpose and intent.  


Latest version.
  • This chapter establishes a planning overlay which provides the means to incorporate in the Zoning Code development standards designed to implement council-approved plans for special areas. Overlay standards and standards extracted from such approved plans, may increase, decrease, or add conditions to the minimum development standards of the underlying district or use.

    The planning overlay provides a formalized method for implementing acceptable community plans through specialized standards intended to achieve physical development objectives in certain areas of the city. Such objectives transcend single parcel ownership and land use district boundaries and represent a need to establish, maintain, or change the character of development in a planning area.
