Ron Watkin:
So what this is doing is taking lands in a
small area of the Agricultural "A" Zone,
located behind a Rural Residential Zone
changing this to Rural Residential and
changing the back area from the
Agricultural Zone to the Open Space Hazard
Zone to correspond to the environmental
nature of the back area of the property.
