In these situations, the new work shall conform to all required setbacks. H. The exceptions authorized by this Subdivision apply only to setback requirements and do not authorize variance of any lot area, hardcover, building height, building area or any other zoning or building code performance Standard. Subd. l9 Future amendments. The "RS" District regulations adopted by this Section represent an innovative attempt to solve the unique problems relating to historic use and previously platted substandard lots on the islands while at the same time assuring the property owners of continued reasonable use of their property. It may be found by subsequent City Councils that yhis Section was not restrictive enough to protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizens and that new development potential granted to property owners by this Section may have to be modified. Therefore, no new development rights granted by this Section shall be deemed to be vested property rights but shall remain subject to future -codification by the City.
