10 -13 -1: PURPOSE:
The purpose of this Ordinance is to provide for an alternative zoning procedure
for innovative developments that provide value to the community over the
conventional zoning district and which is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan
and intent of the zoning ordinance. Planned Unit Developments (PUD) are
intended to encourage the most imaginative and best possible design of building
forms and site planning for tracts of land where unitary plans would best adapt to
topographic and other natural features of such sites. Under this procedure, well
planned residential, industrial, commercial and other types of land use
individually or in combination, may be developed with design flexibility. Planned
developments must be environmentally compatible. They should have a more
beneficial effect upon the health, safety and general welfare of the people of the
1
city and particularly, in the immediate surroundings, than developments built in
conformity with standard district regulations. If building density is increased
above densities allowable by the zoning district in which the use would be
permitted on a particular portion of a PUD then the amount of open space,
retention of existing vegetation, buffer areas, new landscape, public commons,
community open space, and parks shall be evaluated for proportionate increase
for the remainder of the PUD.
The Planned Unit Development district shall generally provide attributes in
excess of conventional City Zoning, Building and other land use requirements by
(this list being representative and not exhaustive):
i
a. Providing a maximum choice of living environments by allowing a variety
of housing and building types;
b. Demonstrating excellence in environmental design and the mitigation of
land use factors or impacts;
c. Promoting a more useful pattern of open space and recreation areas
incorporated as part of the project and that is compatible with the
immediate vicinity;
d. Utilizing materials and design of buildings, signs and the site that provide
for a unified theme throughout the development;
e. Providing substantial landscaping with emphasis given to streetscape
areas, buffer zones, and the provision of significant landscaping (in terms
of size of landscape areas and quantity and quality of landscape
materials) within the developed portions of the site;
f. Incorporating a consistent architectural theme which is unique to the
specific site and surrounding community through the use of materials,
signage and design. Generic corporate architecture and big box designs
are strongly discouraged but not prohibited. Uses should be designed
according to the limitation of the site rather than the removal of the
limitations. Specific design details such as roof parapets, architectural
details, varying roof heights, pitches and materials and building colors and
materials should be addressed;
g. Retain, utilize and incorporate historic features on the project site into the
overall project design if physically and economically feasible; and /or
h. Provide a consistent signage theme. The use of signage design guidelines
is required for multi - phased projects.
10 -13 -2: PROCEDURE:
Because a PUD is a rezoning, the public hearing and findings of fact shall follow
the procedure as outlined within Zoning Ordinance 10 -14 -7 as well as those
outlined below. In the event of a conflict, these procedures will control. The
approval process includes the following stages:
A.Pre- application conference.

public, shall be maintained by the zoning officer for each planned development
so designated. The file shall contain a record of the approved development plan
and all exceptions authorized therein.
10 -13 -4: PRE - APPLICATION CONFERENCE:
A. Purpose: The purpose of the pre - application conference is to provide advice
and assistance to the applicant before preparation of the concept plan so that
the applicant may receive input on:
1. Whether the proposed planned unit development will be in conformity with
the comprehensive plan and the goals and the policies of the city of Yorkville.
2. Whether the zoning classification of planned unit development is
appropriate for the development.
B. Procedure: Prior to filing an application for approval of a planned unit
development, the petitioner shall be required to contact the city administrator
or his designee to arrange an informal pre - application meeting with city staff
and its consultants.
The pre - application conference shall be held with staff. At such conference
the applicant shall provide information as to the location of the proposed
planned unit development, the land use types and approximate area of
proposed land uses, a list of any and all exceptions to the zoning ordinance
and subdivision regulations; and other information necessary to clearly
explain the planned unit development.
