The City has found that the current <br />Code language regarding Ae density credit does not provide the City with the ability to adequately <br />protect the health, safety and welfare of the community. Therefore, it is necessary that a study be <br />conducted to determine Code changes that would provide for adequate protection of health, safety <br />and welfare. <br />To provide a time period during which the City can accomplish the study and ordinance changes, <br />it is necessary to enact a moratorium on development in the LR-lC-1 zoning district. Staff <br />recommends a six-month moratorium expiring on November 16,1998. <br />An ordinance enacting a moratorium on development in the LR-lC-1 district will be provided at the <br />Council meeting. <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: <br />Motion to adopt an ordinance enacting a moratorium on development in the LR-lC-1 zoning district, <br />expiring on November 16,1998.
