General provisions

141 rules that bind every district rather than one — sign regulations, parking, floodplain and the rest of the code’s citywide chapters.

Section 61217 standards

The Planned Mixed Development District (PMD) is intended to provide for the variety and flexibility in design necessary to promote the development of high quality, mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented neighborhoods that minimize traffic congestion, suburban sprawl, infrastructure costs and environmental impacts.
