HE STATED THAT HE WOULD SUPPORT THE MORATORIUM BECAUSE HE BELIEVED THAT IT IS TIME WE GOT THIS ALL SORTED OUT, AND WHEN WE HAVE ALL THE MATERIAL TOGETHER WE NEED FOR THE MASTER LAND USE PLAN, HE BE- LIEVED WE WILL BE IN A BETTER POSITION TO REALLY KNOW WHAT IT IS WE WANT AND WHAT THE COMMUNITY SHOULD HAVE. AS FAR AS SITE PLANS IN PROCESS, IF ONE IS COMPLETED BETWEEN NOW AND THE TIME THIS ORDINANCE COMES INTO EFFECT, THAT IS THE WAY IT GOES. M-0
