The definition for Planned Unit Development (PUD) was questioned. It was the concensus of the

developed according to an approved plan. Planned unit developments shall include all develop-
ments having two (2) or more principal uses or structures on a single parcel of land which
include townhouses, mobile homes, modular homes, single and two-family homes, apartment projects
involving more than one building, residential subdivisions submitted under "density zoning"
provisions, multi-use structures, such as an apartment building with retail at ground floor
level, churches and church schools, schools, industrial complexes, and similar projects.
~,.) definition for Planning Commission was considered inadequate. It was suggested that a
definition other than 'The Planning Commission of the City of Andover unless otherwise
designated' be inserted.
