Zoning
AP
Agricultural Preservation District
The AP Zoning District generally contains areas with existing agricultural, woodlands, stream valleys and residential uses. The presence of active and productive agricultural lands is a major land resource within Upper Bern Township that is beneficial to the local and regional economy. The purpose of the AP Zoning District is to preserve and maintain large contiguous tracts of land for agricultural and conservation uses. Subdivision and land development activity should be limited based upon the sliding scale methodology, as originally developed as part of the Upper Bern Township Comprehensive Plan of 1992 and further endorsed by the Joint Comprehensive Plan for Northern Berks County of 2005. Conservation and best management practices should be encouraged to preserve or maintain the existing natural features, habitats and resources.
