AG-2
Transitional Agricultural District
The AG-2 Transitional Agricultural District will provide an appropriate zoning designation for low density development that retains the character of a rural area with limited residential development. This District is intended to accommodate low-density rural development in areas that are not well-suited for agriculture or development that has been designed to accommodate agricultural land uses in the area. For this reason, rezoning requests to this district will be evaluated on a case-by-case, site-by-site basis.
Due to the unique purpose and nature of this district it may not be provided in uniform areas, as is common with most zoning districts, but may be provided in very small areas located throughout the unincorporated portion of the county.; In addition, the AG-2 District is intended to accommodate lands which are currently located in the A Agricultural District but have inadequate parcel area for the AG-1 District e.g. land was divided into less than 20 acres, prior to the adoption of these regulations; The AG-2 District will allow the zoning maps to more clearly represent the current land uses in an area. The AG-1 District will include larger parcels with agricultural or open space land uses and the AG-2 District will include smaller parcels and land that has been divided for residential development. Agriculture remains a permitted and encouraged use in the AG-2 District.
