18.35.020 Applicability

A. Both forms of development under this chapter, Cluster Developments and Planned Residential Unit Developments, require a zone change together with a concept plan approval. Development agreements are required in all cases. B. Such developments shall be done only in conformance with this chapter, shall require subdivision approval following the requirements of the city subdivision regulations, and shall be developed only in conformance with an approved development plan. C. During the initial zone change/concept phase, a decision as to the appropriateness of the proposed development at the location, and the acceptability of the design plan, shall be made. Such appropriateness and acceptability shall be judged on compatibility with the general plan, design features, compatibility with surrounding land uses, and the prominence and suitability of natural or open space features. D. All conditions identified as part of this process shall become a written part of the record and shall be recorded on the plat or by separated development agreement. E. Both forms of development may be allowed, subject to specific approvals, in all areas of the city, provided they are proposed for property with a minimum size of 10 acres. F. An application for a development under the zone change/concept plan process, does not guarantee the property owner the right to exercise the provisions of this chapter. Such zoning shall be approved by the planning commission and the city council only if, in their judgment, the proposed development fully meets the intent, purposes and requirements of the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
