Mayor Rants declared the public hearing open at 8:30 p.m. DCD
Director Steve Lancaster explained that the ordinance would
remain an interim ordinance until Council adopts the new
development regulations. Those regulations are currently being
reviewed by the Planning Commission. Mayor Rants questioned
the need for the ordinance to be classified an emergency.
Lancaster responded that because the ordinance allows provisions
above what the City's adopted code allows, the emergency status
probably isn't necessary. Anyone aggrieved by the ordinance
would only have to wait the extra days until it was published and
became effective per state law.
