Commission debates definitions, acreage thresholds for agritourism draft
Summary
Members discussed the Revised Draft (07/01/25) for agritainment/agritourism criteria, including whether to add the phrase 'which are,' whether to adopt the State definition from Act 27, and whether to include acreage minimums as other municipalities do.
The Planning Commission reviewed the Revised Draft 07/01/25 for agritainment/agritourism enterprises. Mr. Meining proposed inserting the words "which are" before the clause 'all related to the agricultural operation'; Zoning Officer Duane Dellecker asked whether the commission wanted to adopt the State's definition from Act 27; Chair Angela Farrell noted some municipalities set acreage minimums, including both total acres and acres under production.
Commissioners did not finalize acreage thresholds at the meeting and agreed to revisit the item at the next session. The minutes show a focus on reconciling local practice with the State definition and on whether an acreage requirement should be added to the ordinance.
