From the ordinance

The planned unit development (PUD) concept encourages and permits variation in residential developments, clustering of buildings, common open space, and a mix of building types and land uses. Its intent is to permit greater flexibility in order to allow more creative, innovative, imaginative, and, where possible, environmentally sensitive development than may be possible in the other zoning districts. A PUD is intended to allow the use of diversified development techniques for larger parcels. Planned unit developments shall be developed with appropriate site design, landscaping, and buffering practices to ensure compatibility with surrounding developed properties.
