SECTION 1. New Hotel /motel uses as defined herein, are

for compensation. A "New Hotel /motel." shall mean a hotel /motel
with respect to which discretionary land use approval has not
been granted prior to the date of this interim Ordinance.
SECTION 2. This interim Ordinance is adopted as an urgency
measure to prohibit any uses in the CH -10000 Zone which may be
in conflict with a contemplated zoning proposal concerning
hotel /motel uses which the legislative body is considering or
studying or intends to study within the term of this
Ordinance. This Ordinance shall be of no further force and
effect forty -five (45) days from the date of its adoption

conditional use permits for hotel /motel uses within the
CH -10000 Zone granted to date by the City Council are hereby
exempt from the provisions of this Ordinance.
SECTION 3. The City Council finds that there is a current
and immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare,

use permits, variances, building permits, or any other

comply with the Zoning Ordinance would result in a threat to
public health, safety, or welfare, in that the City is
currently considering upgrading its regulations regarding the
location of and standards for hotel /motel uses in the CH -10000
Zone; the unregulated establishment of new hotel /motel uses
within the CH -10000 Zone in the City would result in a threat
to public health, safety, or welfare; and a reasonable time is
needed for the City to study appropriate zoning classifications
and regulations for hotel /motel uses.
SECTION 4. This Ordinance shall require four (4)
affirmative votes and shall take effect immediately upon
