A
Agricultural District
Consistent with the general purposes of this chapter, the Future Land Use Plan, and the goals and objectives of the Washington Township Comprehensive Plan, the specific intent of this Part is to preserve and maintain the Townships valuable farmland by allowing less intensive development to occur within the designated A boundary lines. Agricultural land is considered a non-replaceable resource within the Township which, if lost, is not reclaimable once it is developed. Agricultural activities are an integral part of the culture and economy of Washington Township and are, therefore, deserving of preservation. Provisions within this Part should protect agricultural activities and retain the Townships rural character.
