6 EXHIBIT A 2017 Comp Plan Amendment Item 2 Code Text Amendment to correct Section of the Quincy Municipal Code (QMC) regardingminimum side yard setbacks within a Residential Planned Development. The minimum 20 side yard setback is not consistent with the intent and purpose of a Residential Planned Development. One of the goals of an RPD is to promote an efficient use of land by facilitating a more economical arrangement of buildings, streets, utilities, and land use. The use of lessor setbacks in conjunction with buffers, screening and landscaping make a denser arrangement of housing units possible. Currently the R-1 minimum requirement for side yard setbacks is six feet. With the desire for a denser dwelling unit to be allowed in an RPD a twenty foot side yard setback does not make sense Minimum development standards. Within an RPD and an MUPD the following minimum standards shall apply, and the standards for the applicable zoning district may be adjusted, as follows: A. Yard, Setback, and Width Requirements. The minimum yard, setback, and width requirements otherwise required in a zoning district may be modi?ed for a PD provided: 1. The minimum front, side and rear yard requirement on the exterior boundaries of the proposed PD shall not be less than twenty (20) feet and the minimum front yard setback within the interior of the PD shall not be less than?ve (5) feet. Interior yards and setbacks shall be as approved on the PD binding site plan and each development will be reviewed to ensure adequate provision of light, air and life safety for all structures. Remove side from above in red. Allow five (5) ieet minimum side setback. Exception: zero lot line may be achieved with approved fire rated construction within the PD Purpose and description. The purpose of a planned development (PD) is to allow a more?exible use of land by encouraging the careful application of design components to achieve the creation of innovative developments and a more ef?cient utilization of public facilities in exchange for public bene?ts that achieve comprehensiveplan goals. The PD can also be used to protect wetlands,?oodways, and other critical areas from development. A PD is one that: permits diversity in the location and type of structures; promotes the efficient use of land by facilitating a more economical arrangement of buildings, streets, utilities, and land use; preserves as much as possible critical areas and natural landscape features; reduces development impactsto adjacent neighborhoods through design and mitigation Density credits. The following standards applyto both an RPD and an MUPD: A. The maximum number of dwellingunits permittedper acre for a PD shall be determined by utilizing the maximum density levels established by the comprehensive plan and zoning regulations, and the amount of public bene?t or design elements provided within the proposed development. In all districts, exceeding the maximum density permitted with the district requires the connection to a domestic water and sanitary sewer system. De?nitions: Yard, front: A yard extending across the full width of the lot, the depth of which yard is the minimum horizontal distance between the front lot line and a line parallel thereto on the lot drawn through the nearest point of the

7 principal building, provided that when a future street right-of-way has been established by the adoption of an official plan, the front yard shall be measured from the right-of wayline. Yard, rear: A yard extending across the full width of the lot between the rear lot line and the nearest line of the principal building. Yard, side: A yard between the side lot line and the nearest line of the principal building, extending from the front yard or front lot line where no front yard is required, to the rear yard or rear lot line where no rear yard is required.
