Findings MGPA

Findings for PAD
16
Section 5.901 of the Zoning Ordinance states that the
purpose of the PAD (Planned Area Development) district
is to:
A. Encourage creative and effective use of land and
circulation systems to accommodate changes in land
development technologies.
B. Encourage residential development to provide a
mixture of housing types and designs.

Findings for PAD
17
C. Encourage innovative development or 
redevelopment concepts for all land use types to 
provide a greater variety and intensity of uses.
D. Provide a process which relates the urban design 
and scale of project to the unique characteristics of the 
site.

Findings for PAD
18
E. Require the nature and intensity of development to be 
supported by adequate utilities, transportation, drainage, 
and common open spaces to serve the development and 
to minimize impact on existing or future adjacent 
development.
F. Encourage development that is consistent with the 
policies and the guidelines established in any specific plan 
and the General Plan.
