Statement of Policy The <br />City CounciL finds that the City is presently <br />faced with the potential of applications for <br />subdivision of land within 1,000 feet of takes <br />and 300 feet or the flood plain of certain <br />tributaries within the City limits. The City is in <br />the process of studying and preparing <br />comprehensive amendment of its shoreline <br />regulations. The City Council finds that there is <br />an overwhelming probability that shoreline <br />regulations will need to be updated and <br />revised. The City CoundJ also finds that such <br />amendments cannot be accomplished until <br />further study has bean competed and a <br />hearifM held. <br />Since enactment of such amendments <br />wiB ur)doubtedly modify existing regulations <br />concerning subdivision of land, the processing <br />of applicaoons during this interim period would <br />be detrimental to the effectuation of proposed <br />standard amendments and contraiy to the <br />purpose of the zoning enabling act, Minnesota <br />Statutes 4S2.3S1. et seo. The City Council <br />further finds that it would be unwise, improper, <br />and urriust to allow individual development to <br />ir durino this studv oeriod and would allowoccur during this study period and would allow <br />discrimination and unfair advantage to a lew <br />to the detriment of the entire City.
