consistent with the General Plan and the infrastructure capacity analyzed by EIR No. 330, SEIR
No. 332, EIR No. 335 and SEIR No. 339, the PTMU Overlay Zone establishes land use intensities
for each of the following development districts: Arena District, Transit District, Gateway District,
Gene Autry District, Katella District, Orangewood District, Office District and Stadium District. The
boundaries of the development districts are depicted in the Platinum Triangle Master Land Use
Plan, which boundaries are incorporated herein by this reference.
.020 Table 20-D (Development Intensities: Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone)
indicates the maximum land use intensities analyzed by EIR No. 330, SEIR No. 332, EIR No. 335,
and SEIR No. 339.
.0201 The permitted development intensities are further described by sub area in Appendix
G of the Platinum Triangle Master Land Use Plan.
.0202 The Planning and Building Department will maintain an accounting of the total amount
of dwelling units and square footage approved within each district. Development shall not
exceed the overall total land use intensity for the PTMU Overlay Zone or the intensity identified
for each district.
