The subject property, or the neighborhood or area in which the property is located, is unique by virtue of topography, geological characteristics, access, configuration, traffic circulation, or some social or historical situation requiring special handling of the development on a precise plan basis. The subject property is located in the middle of Montgomery Community which operates under zoning regulations which require design review approval for all new commercial projects. The development should reflect that same requirement. The property or area to which the "P" modifying district may be applied is an area adjacent and contiguous to a zone allowing different land uses and the development of a precise plan will allow the area so designated to coexist between land uses which might otherwise be incompatible. The three subareas are all adjacent to zones which allow differing land uses, and the Precise Plan designation would serve to buffer potential land use conflicts.
