The existing Planned Development District Ordinance generally requires that all development comply with the general development plan included within the ordinance. This plan ties down not only the layout for buildings and parking, but also the uses for the specific buildings shown on the layout. Several other provisions are outlined within the ordinance as well, including the requirement that the anchor retail building shown on the plan be one hundred percent (100%) masonry.
