Title
AMENDING THE DANE COUNTY FARMLAND PRESERVATION PLAN
Body
Specific changes to the Farmland Preservation Plan include:
1.      Text amendments to allow lands within Urban Service Areas to qualify as Farmland Preservation Areas if they are under an existing, recorded agricultural conservation easement, and;
2.      Relatively minor Farmland Preservation Plan map amendments to:
o      reflect the change in policy above;
o      adjust plan district boundaries to better facilitate Farmland Preservation Zoning consistency, as required by s.91.38, Wis. Stats., and;
o      bring the map into consistency with the Dane County Comprehensive Plan to reflect amendments resulting from Urban Service Area boundary changes approved by the Capital Area Regional Planning Commission.
