The zoning administrator may allow a necessary adjustment to the landscape buffer yard based on the nature of the existing and future land uses and site conditions in the general vicinity after receiving a written recommendation from the planning department. B. Allowable Design Variations. The landscape buffer yard is normally calculated as parallel to the property line. However, design variations, especially when used to incorporate native vegetation into the yard area, shall be considered. The edges of the landscape buffer yard may meander provided that: 1. The total area of the yard is equal to or greater than the total area of the required landscape buffer yard; and 2. The yard measures no less than the minimum width permitted by the applicable landscape buffer yard standard at all points along the perimeter of the property line requiring a landscape buffer yard. C. Fractional Requirements. When the requirements of this article result in a fractional number of plantings, the fraction shall be rounded to one. D. Planned Unit Development Districts. Notwithstanding any other provision of this title to the contrary, the landscaping buffer yard requirements for a PUD originally approved by the metropolitan council under a previous zoning code shall be provided as required by this code or as required in the originally approved PUD, whichever is greater.
