Subd. 3. Administration: Interim Use Permits. A. Purpose and Intent. The purpose and intent of allowing interim uses is: 1. To allow a use for a brief period of time until a permanent location is obtained or while the permanent location is under construction. 2. To allow a use that is presently judged acceptable by the City Council, but that with anticipated development or redevelopment, will not be acceptable in the future or will be replaced in the future by a permitted or conditional use allowed within the respective district. 3. To allow a use which is reflective of anticipated long range change to an area and which is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan provided that said use maintains harmony and compatibility with surrounding uses and is in keeping with the architectural character and design standards of existing uses and development. B. Procedure. 1. Existing Uses. All uses existing as of July 14, 1997 that are included in the list of interim uses for the zoning district in which they are located shall be considered as having an interim use permit which contains conditions that permit the land use and structures as they existed on said date. Any enlargement, structural alteration, or intensification of such use shall require an amended interim use permit regulated by the Section 2, Subd. 3. of this Ordinance and shall be processed according to the submittal requirements, standards and procedures for a conditional use permit as established by Section 2, Subd. 2. of this Ordinance. 2. New Uses. Uses defined as interim uses which do not presently exist within a respective zoning district shall be processed according to the submittal requirements, standards and procedures for a conditional use permit as established by Section 2, Subd. 2. of this Ordinance. C. General Standards. An interim use shall comply with the following: 1. Existing Uses. Existing uses shall be in conformance with zoning and building standards in effect at the time of initial construction and development, and may not be enlarged or expanded except under the terms for newly established uses, and shall continue to be governed by such regulations in the future. 2.
