h. Minimum right-of-way widths (by road type); Minimum open space per lot and by phase [Note: The minimum open space for the entire project shall meet or exceed the requirements of section 915.18.] Minimum preservation/conservation area per lot. Note: more conceptual plan submittal requirements are listed -out in section 915.24. (2) Notwithstanding other provisions in this chapter (915) and Chapter 971, specific land use criteria listed in Chapter 971 may be waived (modified or not applied) where such criteria would merely apply to the compatibility of uses within the P.D. project area if approved by the county. Where specific land use criteria apply to the relationship of a use(s) within a P.D. project and properties adjacent to the project area, the specific land use criteria shall apply pursuant to the provisions of chapter 971. (3) The conventional standards and criteria found in Chapter 911, Zoning, not covered in subsection 915.15(1) shall apply unless otherwise specifically waived or modified by other provisions of this chapter. (Ord. No. 2012-021, § 1, 7-10-12) Section 915.16. Compatibility standards. Compatibility with areas adjacent to P.D. project areas shall be ensured by project compliance with the following requirements. (1) A twenty -five-foot setback from buildings, driveways, roadways, and parking areas to perimeter P.D. project area property lines shall be established and shown on all plans for residential PD projects, with the exception of TND and mixed use projects. (A) The twenty -five-foot setback shall not be required along a P.D. project perimeter where there is an existing or planned commercial or industrial use, mixed use, or TND project on the adjacent property or where the P.D. project perimeter is adjacent to property having a commercial or industrial land use plan designation. In such cases, normal setback, buffer, and landscape standards shall apply. In addition, the twenty -five-foot setback shall not be required along the boundaries of a P.D. where those boundaries are contiguous to lands which are part of the same project. For these purposes, contiguous lands shall be considered part of the same project if the contiguous lands and the land comprising the PD/PRD are under unified control, as provided in section 915.09. (B) Yard encroachments provided in section 911.15 that do not conflict with project buffer requirements may be applied within residential P.D. projects. (C) Where a P.D. residential project abuts another residential project that requires a perimeter buffer, the required buffer areas may be allowed to "overlap" with a single buffer meeting both requirements, if approved by the board of county commissioners. (2) Buffers (A, B, or C) or transition areas (TA) shall be provided in accordance with the following compatibility matrix. These buffer and transition area requirements do not supercede or replace buffer and transition area requirements of other code sections, but may be credited toward meeting buffer and transition area requirements of other code sections.
