Chapter 3.08 — IS INTERIM STUDY OVERLAY DISTRICT

In addition to the general purposes listed in Chapter 1.04 Title, Components, and Purposes the specific purpose of the IS Interim Study Overlay District is to allow discretionary review of development proposals in areas where major changes in zoning regulations and development standards are contemplated and under study.

(Ord. 2001-015 § 1; Ord. 2020-002 § 4)

The IS Overlay District may be initiated under the procedures for Zoning Map amendments prescribed by Chapter 5.16 Amendments. Prior to or in conjunction with approving an amendment reclassifying land to an IS Overlay District, the Planning Commission and City Council shall approve a study plan that identifies regulatory problems and state land-use and development issues to be resolved for the area proposed for reclassification. The IS Overlay District may be combined with any base district. Each IS Overlay District shall be shown on the zoning map with an "-IS" designator. A reference to the enacting ordinance and the expiration date of the IS Overlay District also shall be included on the Zoning Map. (Ord. 2001-015 § 1; Ord. 2020-002 § 4)

• A. Use Permit Required. Approval of a use permit shall be required for establishment of a new or expanded use in an IS Overlay District and may be approved for any use classification permitted or conditionally allowed with a use permit in the base district with which the IS Overlay District is combined.

• B. Required Findings. In addition to the findings required for use permits by Chapter 5.08 Use Permits and Variances and additional findings that may be required for specific use classifications, approval of a use permit in the IS Overlay District shall require a finding that the proposed use does not fall within the scope of the land-use and development issues to be resolved for the area at the time the IS Overlay District was adopted.

• (Ord. 2001-015 § 1; Ord. 2020-002 § 4; Ord. 2022-001 § 3)

Development regulations for the IS Overlay District shall be specified by a use permit or shall be those of the base district with which the IS Overlay District is combined. (Ord. 2001-015 § 1; Ord. 2020-002 § 4)

An ordinance establishing an IS Overlay District shall contain a provision terminating the IS designation not more than two years from its effective date. An ordinance establishing an IS Overlay District may be amended, reenacted, or superseded by a zoning map amendment adopted as prescribed by Chapter 5.16 Amendments.
