Interim Study Overlay Zone (IS)
 

Purpose
The Interim Study Overlay Zone is intended to allow discretionary review of development proposals in areas where changes in zoning provisions are contemplated or under study.

This zone allows new developments to proceed through a review process to insure the development is compatible with the City's Comprehensive Plan.

 

Location

  An IS may only occur in a location for which an area-specific comprehensive plan element has been adopted by the City Plan Commission.
Time Limits   An ordinance establishing an IS contains a provision terminating the IS designation at a specified time which is not more than two years from the effective date of the IS.
