Staff Report 6/5/2013 <br /> APC # 2675-13 <br /> Owner: APC Initiated <br /> Location: Text Amendment <br /> Jurisdiction: City of South Bend <br /> Public Hearing Date: 6/18/2013 <br /> Requested Action: <br /> The requested action is a text change, amending Chapter 21 of the South Bend Municipal <br /> Code, Article 5 Planned unit Development District, Section 21-05 Planned Unit <br /> Development District, to revise the criteria used in determining major/minor changes to <br /> approved site plans and removing the limits to obtain secondary approval. <br /> Zoning and Land Use History And Trends: <br /> In 2009 the Area Plan Commission initiated an ordinance to amend the criteria used in <br /> determining major/minor changes to approved site plans, and removing the time limits to <br /> obtain secondary approval for PUDs. The Area Plan Commission sent it with a favorable <br /> recommendation to the Common Council. It was tabled at the Council Committee meeting <br /> and later withdrawn in order to review the comments made by the Council members and <br /> craft a revised ordinance. The proposed ordinance has been revised to address those <br /> comments. <br /> Staff Comments: <br /> It is not uncommon for large developments typically using the PUD District to take longer <br /> than 3-5 years to fully develop. Limiting the time that final developments can be approved <br /> has no additional public benefit since all requirements of the PUD must be adhered to. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Based on information available prior to the public hearing, the staff recommends that the <br /> petition be sent to the Common Council with a favorable recommendation. <br /> Analysis: <br /> Planned Unit Developments are large, multi-year projects which typically take a long time to <br /> complete. Limiting the time that final developments can be approved has no additional <br /> public benefit since all requirements of a PUD must be adhered to. Therefore, staff sees no <br /> need to impose a time limit. The proposed text amendment will also allow the addition of <br /> driveways or access points to be considered a minor modification that may be authorized by <br /> the Executive Director without a public hearing. <br /> APC 4 2675-13 Page 1 of 1 <br />
