94: Requirements for making area subject to temporary and future provisions

You could also call this:

"Rules for Areas with Temporary and Future Plans"

If a plan says an area will have temporary and future rules, it must include some important details. You need to know what rules will allow the territorial authority to announce that the future rules apply. The plan must also clearly say what the future rules and temporary rules are.
