§ 88-280-06. APPROVAL CRITERION

MPD zoning may be approved only when the city council, after receiving the recommendation of the city plan commission, determines that the proposed development cannot be reasonably accommodated by other available regulations of this zoning and development code, and that a MPD would result in a greater benefit to the city as a whole than would development under conventional zoning district regulations. Such greater benefit may include implementation of adopted planning policies, natural resource preservation, urban design, neighborhood/community amenities, or a general level of development quality.
