AG-1
Agricultural District
The AG-1 District is intended to accommodate a full range of agricultural activities such as the raising of crops or livestock as well as the processing and sale of agricultural products raised on the premises and, at the same time, to offer protection to agricultural land and land uses. Maintaining an inventory of productive, or potentially productive, agricultural land is a principal goal within the unincorporated portion of the county. The district is also intended to provide protection for watersheds and water supplies, forest areas, and scenic areas; to promote the conservation of fish and wildlife; and to prevent the untimely scattering of more dense urban development. The standards of the AG-1 District are designed to permit limited development that is compatible with the existing rural character and agricultural land uses.
