Comment: The Planning and Zoning Commission, at its meeting
of March 17, 1983, recommended approval of an amendment to

The amendment clarifies the language of the ordinance by
providing that any property or area may be rezoned twice
within 12 months, but the suspension of building permits
shall not apply during the second rezoning. This clari-
fication is necssary in order to proceed smoothly with the
adoption of the new Zoning Ordinance. A memo of explanation
from the Legal staff was included in the Council's 'larch 29,
1983, packet. A copy of the ordinance is included in this
packet.
