TO: <br /> <br />Sylvia Frolick, Zoning AdministraZor <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Wil. liam K. Goodrich, City Attorney <br /> <br />Interpretation of City's Multiple Residential <br />Zoning District <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />February 27, 1997 <br /> <br /> Section 9.20.15 of the City Code establishes the MR Multiple <br />Residential Zoning District. Maximum housing density in this <br />district is 15 uniss per acre if with a "P.U.D." The question <br />~sked is whether or no5 actual rezoning to a P.U.D. zoning district <br />is required in order to have a 15 unit par acre development. <br /> <br /> In my opinion zoning from MR to PUD is not required by this <br />code language. The MR te×t does not specifically state zoning to <br />a PUD districu is necessary, razher it states only "...with <br />P.U.D." This then may reasonably be inserpresed to not require a <br />PUD zoning district, bu~ rather a requirement to follow the <br />performance s~andards and inten5 of 5he City's PUD code section. <br />There would seem to be little sense in requiring a PUD zoning <br />district for this 15 unit per acre use, since it is already a <br />permitted use in the MR distich. Yn addition, the intent of boZh <br />zoning districts will be adequately protected by ~clherin~ to both <br />5he MR performance standards as well as the PUD inten~ and <br />performance standards. <br /> <br /> <br />
