The purpose of the Agricultural (AG) Zone is to:
A.
Preserve
lands best suited for agricultural use; and
B.
Protect
agricultural lands from the encroachment of incompatible uses.
|
The AG Zone is intended to provide areas for agricultural uses,
single-unit development, commercial and industrial uses directly related
to agriculture, and other compatible uses that may be appropriate
in an agricultural area. This zone implements the Agricultural (AG)
General Plan Land Use Designation.
|
(Ord. 19-1 § 3)
Table 17.07.020, Land Use Regulations—Agricultural Zone, sets the land use regulations for the Agricultural Zone. Land uses are defined in Chapter 17.50, Use Classifications.

Land uses not listed in the table and not substantially like the uses below may be allowed pursuant to Conditional Use Permit approval. Section numbers in the right-hand column refer to other sections of this title.
