A
Agricultural District
The agricultural zoning district (A) comprises most of the land area of the county. It preserves the rural character of the county by protecting agriculture from conflicts with incompatible uses and discourages the random scattering of commercial and industrial uses and residential developments. In addition to agriculture, it permits the traditional rural pattern of homes and small businesses.
