Neighborhood Opposition The Community Development Department received two letters of opposition. The first letter was received from the San Joaquin Farm Bureau Federation. The second letter was received from Don Precissi. Both letters expressed concerns with the conversion of an agricultural use to a non-agricultural use. However, crossroads commercial areas may only be permitted in areas with Limited Agriculture and General Agriculture General Plan designations to offer a limited selection of convenience goods and services to rural areas outside of communities(General Plan, Volume I, page IV-28). Agricultural Mitigation This project will be subject to the Agricultural Mitigation Ordinance of the Development Title. The Ordinance requires agricultural mitigation for a General Plan Amendment or Zone Reclassification that changes the designation of any land from an agricultural to a non-agricultural use (Section 9- 1080.3(a)(1)). Agricultural mitigation shall be satisfied by granting a farmland conservation easement or other farmland conservation mechanism as set forth in Development Title Section 9-1080.3(d). The number of acres of agricultural mitigation land shall be at least equal to the number of acres that will be changed to a non-agricultural use (a 1:1 ratio). Pursuant to Section 9-1080.3(f), submission of the required legal instrument to provide agricultural mitigation land will be required at the time of Grading Permit or Building Permit issuance for the underlying development project.
