The original purpose of the moratorium was to <br /> maintain the status quo while the General Plan was being studied and updated. <br /> <br /> In 2005, the Board of County Commissioners in Gem County, Idaho adopted and signed a <br /> Resolution to allow the County time to perform a thorough review of plans and ordinances to <br /> ensure they were adequate to address the effects of current and anticipated land development. <br /> The Board of County Commissioners imposed a specific deadline or, in the alternative, until the <br /> Board released the moratorium. <br /> <br /> In 2005, Thurston County, Washington imposed a temporary moratorium on residential <br /> subdivisions to allow for compliance between State and County regulations. This was in <br /> response to a ruling by the Western Washington Growth Management Hearings Board. <br /> <br /> In 2006, the Morrison County Board of Commissioners enacted a moratorium on the approval of <br /> new subdivisions, resort conversions, common interest communities and PUD's in the Lake <br /> Shore area after the public expressed strong concerns about intensive development. This <br /> moratorium allowed the County time to focus on long-term preservation and conservation of <br /> land and open space along the protected waters within Morrison County. <br /> <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> K.
