VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. ( #10) INTERIM USES Gaffron reported to Council that during prior Council review it was noted that the ordinance. language • does not strictly follow the language in the statutes, and that the criteria for interim uses should be spelled out. The reason for the interim use ordinance would be to allow temporary use of a property that might not be suited for uses it has been used for in the past, but could get some reasonable use for the next few years until it is taken for Hwy 12. Kelley questioned if the City was considering doing this ordinance strictly for the financial gain of the property owner. Moorse stated this ordinance is to provide some interim use of property where the current uses in the zone are not feasible. This would result in a financial gain for the property owner. Barrett stated he has no concerns with the way the ordinance is drafted. Barrett felt the ordinance focuses on the specific pieces of property for a specific period of time. Kelley asked what properties are mostly affected by this ordinance. Gaffron replied the daycare at the intersection of Hwy 12 and County Road 6, and potentially the Dog House Kennel. Page 9 •
