The Commission felt that to uphold fairness within the application process, projects submitted for discretionary action such as a Conditional Use Permit, Minor Conditional Use Permit, or Variance and deemed complete would be exempt from the ordinance. The Commission recommended that all applications deemed complete as of March 10, 2004 be exempt from the impacts of the moratorium. 1904k
