19.16.070 Permitted densities.

Permissible gross densities within a planned community master plan area shall be as specified in the general plan and land use map. Densities proposed for a portion of a planned community master plan area may exceed densities established under the general plan if overall densities within the boundaries of the master plan area remain consistent with the established general plan density range. Cluster single-family attached (including townhomes) or semi-attached housing may be considered in areas designated single-family residential on the general plan land use map if it can be clearly demonstrated that such clustering results in: (A) greater protection of environmental resources including, but not limited to, steep hillsides or biological resources/sensitive habitats, or results in provision of an amenity or amenities of community-wide importance; and (B) is consistent with specifications contained in the land use and subarea schedules contained in the general plan land use element.
