What Is Planned Urban Development?

Land use and zoning laws are also used by local governments to prevent new development from interfering with preexisting land purposes and to control the pace of development and growth. Planned Urban Development (PUD) is a means of land regulation that promotes large-scale, unified land development.

PUD is a zoning classification for land that contains a mixture of various land uses including:

• Residential housing
• Recreation
• Industrial buildings
• Open land
• Commercial centers
