The one acre of grapes is a Community Development Department policy requirement for off-site wine cellars, not a requirement for Williamson Act compliance. Since a winery was approved, the wine cellar/wine tasting room is now considered on-site and part of the winery. Wine grapes are not required for a winery. One acre of grapes has been planted on a portion of the parcel that is not part of these two permits. 3.
