31-9 Community structure plan (CSP)

(1) Following approval of the P-C Zone Plan, a Community Structure Plan (CSP), together with a development agreement that codifies that plan, shall be submitted to the Director for review and approval by the planning commission. The CSP shall contain a contiguous area within the P-C Zone that includes one or more of the following land use districts: neighborhood, village, town center, business, research, technology, educational campus, and open space. A CSP shall show the following: (a) Name of planned community; (b) Names, addresses, and phone numbers of applicant and property owners; (c) CSP location, legal/boundary description, acreage, scale, and north arrow; (d) Proposed land use districts (neighborhoods, villages, business and research parks, and/or town centers) boundaries, and acreage; a table showing the number of dwelling units, open space acreage, and acreage of the various nonresidential land uses; (e) A master circulation system plan, including a street network (which may include areas for off street parking, as appropriate), pedestrian circulation, bicycle and trail system plans (including possible equestrian trails), identification of street alignments and right-of-way widths, illustrative cross sections which accommodate and specify vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle use in the right-ofway. Pedestrian and bicycle trail systems shall connect the land use districts, schools and open space areas and provide linkages to other trail systems in existing or future areas of the P-C Zone and adjacent facilities within the adjacent municipal jurisdictions of Tooele County. A traffic study may be a required component of the master circulation system plan, as deemed necessary by the County. (f) Existing and proposed waterways and water bodies, major utilities and easements, flood boundary, and flood control facilities; (g) Adjacent parcels, their owners, and their uses; (h) Topography and significant features on or adjacent to the property; (i) Documentation of the ability to connect to an existing water system, or the creation of a new water system, as well as any associated water rights, shares, usage etc. (j) Documentation of the ability to connect to an existing sewage system, or the creation of a new sewer system. Septic Systems are not allowed in the P-C Zone. (k) Open space plan providing general description and locations of major open space; (l) Standards that govern the design and maintenance of major public infrastructure improvements (including without limitation: sidewalks, parking requirements (including landscaping, and defining the required number of stalls based on land use districts) street lighting, paving, street furniture, etc.) and general building placement (setbacks), massing, and design criteria (CSP Design Standards); and (m) Other information deemed necessary by the Director. (2) The Planning Commission shall have the discretion to disapprove a CSP only on the basis of: (a) the failure of the proposed CSP to include all of the elements required in this section; (b) the failure of the proposed master circulation system identified in the CSP within and surrounding the P-C Zone to TOOELE COUNTY LAND USE ORDINANCE – CHAPTER 31 adequately serve the communities within the P-C Zone; (c) the failure of the proposed major infrastructure identified in the CSP within and surrounding the P-C Zone to provide adequate service to the communities within the P-C Zone; or (d) the inclusion of uses in the CSP not permitted or conditionally permitted under this Chapter. In approving a CSP, the planning commission may impose the following reasonable conditions of approval to mitigate reasonably anticipated detrimental impacts: (i) The proposed use and site development plan shall not present a serious traffic hazard due to poor site design or to anticipate traffic increases on the nearby road system which exceed the amounts called for under the county transportation master plan. (ii) The proposed use and site development plan shall not pose a serious threat to the safety of persons who will work on, reside on, or visit the property nor pose a serious threat to the safety of residents or properties in the vicinity by failure to adequately address the following issues: fire safety, geologic hazards, soil or slope conditions, liquefaction potential, site grading/topography, storm drainage/flood control, high ground water, environmental health hazards, or wetlands.
