§ 4-2A010. Nonconforming regulations for existing farm structures and uses.

A zoning permit shall not be issued for a nonconforming structure or use for which a permit agritourism activity is being sought until the following procedure has been completed:

A.

The zoning administrator is to send written notification by certified letter to the last known address of each adjacent property owner advising them of the proposed agritourism activity and informing them that the permit may be issued if written comments are not received within thirty (30) days. The property shall also be posted with a sign pursuant to section 9-1006 for no less than fourteen (14) days prior to the expiration of the thirty-day period.

B.

If the zoning administrator receives no written objection from any property owner so notified within thirty (30) days of the date of sending the notification letter, and the zoning administrator determines that the proposed use otherwise complies with the zoning ordinance, and the requirements for sewage disposal, the zoning administrator may issue a zoning permit for the agritourism activity.

C.

If the zoning administrator receives written objection from any property owner so notified within thirty (30) days of the date of sending the notification letter, then the zoning administrator may not issue a zoning permit unless and until such time as a conditional use permit for the proposed use is approved by the board of supervisors with a recommendation from the planning commission.
