WHEREAS, the Board of Directors adopted a six month moratorium on building permits
and rezoning applications for the area of the Clinton Presidential Library in order to consider the

completed since the City has been aware of a referendum process on the bond ordinance that
would finance the library; and

of the park site will soon be available and the City needs to more forward more earnestly with its
plans for a special zoning district; and

under the direction of the City Manager could take a lesser period of time.
