acreage remaining after subtracting the landowner’s requested two to three acres. The offer is based
upon the concept plan as sketched on an aerial view presented to LPC with the 2 to 3 acre Reserve
Area to be located on the southerly end of the parcel and a development rights easement area on
approximately 30 acres. For scenic purposes, the easement is to allow a maximum lot coverage of
2% for future agricultural structures and all agricultural structures are to be located within a
designated one acre area along the northwesterly corner near other existing ag structures on
adjacent property. The purpose of this acquisition is for farmland protection and scenic protection.
