Plan Commission updates farmland preservation map to align with recent zoning changes
Summary
Commission approved an update to the farmland preservation plan map to reflect recent agricultural rezones and recent CSM changes; staff described which parcels will be added or removed.
Planning staff presented updates to Fitchburg's farmland preservation map to align it with recent agricultural zoning changes and several recent certified survey maps (CSMs). The update adds parcels retained in exclusive agriculture and removes parcels that were subdivided or converted to residential use.
Staff said the map uses two green shades to distinguish long‑term farmland preservation parcels from those earmarked in adopted neighborhood plans and that the commission should expect annual map updates as subdivisions and CSMs occur. The commission approved the resolution to adopt the map update.
