The subdivision type: PRD

PRDs are a type of subdivision that allows for smaller lots than the standard.  With a PRD, lots can be as small as 4,000 square feet.  PRDs are only allowed where the presence of critical areas would reduce the lot yield.  In exchange, the development is required to provide a higher standard of open space and the buildings are subject to administrative design review.  In this case, there is a wetland in the northeast portion of the site that will be avoided and protected.  PRDs are subject to the criteria of Chapter 14.220 SMC as well as typical subdivision laws.
