(A) Establish a compatible and efficient mix of land uses and open space; <br />2. (B) Ensure compatibility with the Comprehensive Plan, surrounding developments and future <br />development needs; <br />3. (C) Establish a creative approach in building design through architectural compatibility with <br />adjacent buildings, general neighborhood design or by creating a unique style; <br />4. (D) Achieve flexibility and provide incentives for development that will sustain a wider range of choice in <br />satisfying the changing needs of the community; and <br />5. (E) Provide for any individual land or a combination of land uses not otherwise specified elsewhere in this <br />Ordinance. <br />This Planned Unit Development uses good urban design principles to build mixed use structures along the public <br />streets, and east race. The development builds density where surface parking currently exists, moving the parking in <br />to a structure, mostly hidden from public view. This promotes greater urban density, tax collection, and reduces the <br />demand on developing park land. <br />This PUD creates one of the first mixed use facilities on the East Race, since the first east race plan was developed in <br />the 1980s. It maintains and reinforces the built fabric and feel of the neighborhood called out in the Comprehensive <br />Plan, through its architecture, style, and incorporation of mixed use buildings. <br />The PUD enables the developer to create use of a definition of family that was previously unavailable in the CBD <br />district, and addresses issues with the current zoning that would prevent the grocery store, pharmacy, and existing <br />
