Appendix 12. Purpose and intent.  


Latest version.
  • The purpose and intent of the Cedar Grove Agricultural Overlay District is to protect the natural areas and ensure responsibly planned economic and social growth. Within the Cedar Grove Agricultural Overlay District, the Mixed Use District (MIX-CGA) and the Community Unit Plan District (CUP-CGA) allow for developments with a mix of uses for residents to live, work and relax. To further protect the rural land and natural resources of the area, standards have been established to provide for green space and open space throughout the district. Agriculturally zoned properties and rural services will remain prevalent throughout the area. The Cedar Grove Agricultural District will ensure that mixed-use future growth occurs and that many types of housing for all incomes and ages will be provided. The developments will provide connectivity for pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists.
