Agriculture

The purposes of the A Agriculture Zone District are to encourage and provide for noncommercial agricultural uses, such as family farming and animal raising, and to allow limited commercial agricultural activities, on the small amounts of agricultural land remaining in the County which are not designated as commercially suitable, but which still constitute a productive natural resource; to provide for agricultural uses of a higher intensity in rural areas than those allowed in the RA Residential Agricultural Zone District where such use is compatible with the surrounding land uses and the environmental constraints of the land; to maintain options for a diversity of farm operations; to implement the agricultural preservation policy of Chapter 16.50 SCCC; and to maintain productive open space and rural character in the County.
