The <br /> Division monitors farmland conversion on a statewide basis and administers the California Land <br /> Conservation (Williamson) Act and other agricultural land conservation programs. We offer the <br /> following comments and recommendations with respect to the proposed project. <br /> Proiect Description <br /> The proposed lot line adjustments were submitted as three separate applications, for a combined <br /> total-of seven.adjusted parcel boundaries'. The lot line adjustments will occur on properties under <br /> a Williamson Act contract. The adjustments will create three homesite parcels that will no longer be- <br /> subject to the contract. <br /> Department Comments <br /> Based on the information provided in the application referrals, the Department requests that the <br /> findings ryuired in Government Code �.�•�/rGC\ § 51527 of the Land.Conservation Act be addressed in <br /> t: <br /> the staff report. The proposed LLA contains several areas of existing Williamson Act contracted <br /> land that will be reconfigured and reclassified as non-contracted land. In doing so, it is <br /> recommended that special attention be paid to GC § 51257(a)(2)-(4), (7), which hold special <br /> provisions for these types of modifications. The Department also recommends that the current <br /> contract be rescinded and simultaneously entered into new contract pursuant to GC § 51527. <br /> Thank you for giving us the opportunity to comment on the proposed Lot Line Applications. Please <br /> provide this Department with notices of any future hearing dates as well as any staff reports <br /> pertaining to.this project.
