What is Planned Unit Development (PUD)?

A large-scale development with its own custom zoning rules for density, use mix, and infrastructure.

A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is a type of land-use approval that creates a custom zoning framework for a specific development project. Unlike conventional zoning - where every parcel in a district follows identical rules - a PUD allows the developer and municipality to negotiate site-specific standards for density, building types, setbacks, open space, and the mix of residential, commercial, and civic uses.
