That City of Paris Zoning Ordinance No. 1710 Sec. 8-300, "PD, Planned <br />Development Districts Uses Permitted," shall be amended to read in its entirety as follows: <br />"8-300 PD, PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT USES PERMITTED: <br />"The planned development (PD) zone is established to provide greater flexibility in <br />development planning for large or complex developments planned as a single <br />comprehensive, integrated project. A development in a PD zone may include planned <br />associations of various land uses which creatively complement each other and harmonize <br />with the existing and proposed land uses in the nearby area. A PD is intended to allow <br />single- or multi -use projects within its boundaries, and is appropriate only when the <br />resulting development is considered more beneficial to the community as a planned <br />development than that which would occur using conventional zoning and subdivision <br />regulations. Therefore, in some instances such developments may not conform to specific <br />land use patterns designated in the zoning map or district regulations prescribed by this <br />article or the subdivision ordinance. <br />"8-301 The City Council of the City of Paris, Texas, after public hearing and proper notice <br />to all parties affected and after recommendations from the Planning and Zoning <br />Commission, may authorize the creation of Planned Development Districts that might <br />include: <br />a) Commercial center. <br />b) Residential development of multiple or mixed housing. <br />c) Industrial parks or districts. <br />d) Medical center and hospital. <br />e) Civic center and community center. <br />f) Office centers. <br />g) Service centers. <br />h) Recreation centers. <br />i) Any appropriate combination of uses that may be planned, developed, or operated <br />as integrated land uses. <br />2 <br />
