§ 17.31.050. Standards.

The following standards shall apply to all Planned Industrial Developments:

A.

All street and utility improvements shall be constructed to standards specified by the City of Port Angeles. Street widths may vary from widths required in the subdivision regulations, and interior circulation streets may be either public or private. Streets intended to be public must meet the minimum standards set forth in the City of Port Angeles Urban Standards and Guidelines Manual.

B.

All PIDs that include residential uses shall devote at least 30 percent of the gross area of the site to common usable open space, half of which must be used for recreational purposes and none of which will be credited in the setback areas required along the exterior property lines of the PID. LID facilities may count towards the common usable open space not required for recreational purposes. Street rights-of-way, driveways, parking lots, environmentally sensitive areas, and utility structures shall not be counted as part of the common usable open space. Common usable open space shall be maintained as an integral part of the site and may not be segregated as a separate parcel or parcels unless such parcels are to be owned by a homeowners association. Community recreation facilities and recreation structures shall be included in calculating the area devoted to common usable open space.

C.

All PIDs that include residential uses and provide common open spaces, recreation facilities, private roads, utilities, parking areas or other similar developments within the boundaries of the PID shall provide for continuous and perpetual maintenance of those common amenities of the PID in form and manner acceptable to the City.

D.

Platting shall be required for all projects that involve or contemplate the subdivision of land. Lots in a platted PID may be sold to separate owners according to the separate lots as shown in the recorded plat that is approved in connection therewith. Development of all lots within the platted PID shall be as shown in the approved PID. No further subdivision of land within the PID will be permitted unless a formal amendment to the PID is approved.

E.

Conditional use permits shall be required of all projects that involve or contemplate conditional uses that may be allowed in the underlying zone(s). No further conditional use permits, except home occupations, will be permitted within the PID unless a formal amendment to the PID is approved.

F.

For any underlying land use regulatory process that is consolidated through the PID overlay process, the criteria and development standards of that underlying land use regulatory process shall be met. Any subsequent land use decision made pursuant to an underlying land use regulatory process shall also require a formal amendment to the PID.

G.

To encourage design flexibility, conservation of natural amenities, and innovations that result in a higher quality environment than traditional development, site planning and architectural review that address the following criteria are required of all development in the PID. Where applicable, the design of a PID that includes residential uses shall accomplish the following to the greatest extent possible:

1.

Preserve unique physical features of the site including, but not limited to, creeks, wetlands, ravines, bluffs, lakes or ponds, shorelines and forest areas.

2.

Preserve scenic view corridors, both internal and external to the site.

3.

Provide recreation facilities including, but not limited to, bicycle or pedestrian paths, children's play areas and playfields.

4.

The design of all open space areas and building structures shall be compatible with and complementary to the environment in which they are placed.

H.

All PIDs shall comply with the goals and policies of the Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan.
