The <br />approved PUD for the property acts as an additional governing document for the campus <br />providing flexibility in certain areas that the underlying zoning regulations would not otherwise <br />allow. The following section reviews the proposed construction based on the approved PUD and <br />the I-1 District regulations. <br /> <br />Section 1320.06 – District Requirements <br /> <br />A. Lot Size, Structure Coverage, and Landscape Coverage <br /> <br />The maximum structure coverage permitted in the I-1 District is 30 percent and the minimum <br />landscape coverage is 35 percent. The project would result in an additional 2,185 square feet of <br />structure coverage for the addition on the east side of Building 10. This would bring the total <br />current structure coverage on the property to 17.55 percent. The amount of landscape coverage <br />would increase by 6,767 square feet overall due to the removal of the at-grade pedestrian <br />walkway and the 26 parking spaces located in the parking lot north of Building 10. As a result, <br />landscape coverage on the campus would increase to 48.56 percent of the lot area.
