PURPOSE: To consider applications from multiple landowners/farms to certify qualifying
farmland within the Schley/Eno, Cedar Grove, New Hope, and High Rock/Efland Voluntary
Agricultural Districts; and enroll the lands in the Orange County Voluntary Agricultural District
(VAD) and the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD) programs.
BACKGROUND: Orange County's Voluntary Farmland Preservation Program was started in
1992. To date, 73 farms have enrolled in the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program and
the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD) program, totaling 10,917 acres (rounded) in
the program.
The County's Voluntary Farmland Protection Ordinance (VFPO) outlines a procedure for the
Agricultural Preservation Board to review and approve applications for qualifying farmland, and
to make recommendations to the Board of Commissioners concerning the establishment and
modification of agricultural districts. Section VII of the VFPO contains the requirements for
inclusion in a voluntary agricultural district. To be certified as qualifying farmland, a farm must:
a) Be located in the unincorporated area of Orange County;
b) Be engaged in Agriculture as that word is defined in NC GS 106-581.1
c) Be certified by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) of the United States
Department of Agriculture as being a farm on which at least two-thirds of the land is
composed of soils that are best suited for providing food, seed, fiber, forage, timber, forestry
products, horticultural crops and oil seed crops;
d) Be managed in accordance with the Natural Resources Conservation Service and NC Soil
and Water Conservation Service defined erosion-control practices that are addressed to
said highly-erodible land; and have a current conservation farm plan and/or forestry
management plan associated with the current usages and owner; and
2
e) Be the subject of a non-binding conservation agreement, as defined in N.C.G.S. §121-35,
between the County and the owner that prohibits non-farm use or development of such land
for a period of at least ten years, except for the creation of not more than three lots that
meet applicable County zoning and subdivision regulations.
The Agricultural Preservation Board reviewed the findings of the staff assessments for the
attached applications for the Orange County Voluntary Agricultural District program at the
September and November 2016 meetings. All farm applications were reviewed and verified to
have met or exceeded the minimum criteria for certification into the program. The Agricultural
Preservation Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of the certification for the five (5)
farms, including 547 acres (rounded) of farmland, and their inclusion in the Voluntary and/or
Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District program. The certification documentation is on file in
the DEAPR/Soil and Water Conservation District office. The farms are described briefly below:
Brief Farm Descriptions:
1) Owners Paul and Patricia Bonham have submitted an application to enroll two (2) parcels of
land totaling 116.85 acres as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District
program (VAD) in the Schley/Eno Agricultural District. The farm operation includes hay
crops, pasture, wildlife habitat, and managed woodland. The Bonham property has been
evaluated against each of the VAD certification requirement standards and meets or
exceeds all of the measures above.
2) Owners Michael Milligan and Alicia Carter have submitted an application to enroll two (2)
parcels of land totaling 31.87 acres as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural
District program (VAD) in the New Hope Agricultural District. The farm operation includes

or exceeds all of the measures above.
3) Owner Beth Myers has submitted an application to enroll one (1) parcel of land totaling of
12.15 acres as qualifying farmland for the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD)
program located in the Cedar Grove Agricultural District. The farm includes seasonal
vegetables; such as tomatoes, peppers, onions, etc.; and also managed woodland. The
farm has been evaluated against each of the EVAD certification requirement standards and
meets or exceeds all of the measures above.
4) Owners Andrew B. Lloyd and Andy Lloyd have submitted an application to enroll four (4)

installed riparian buffers along the streams through their property to protect Hillsborough's
3
water supply. The Brooks Farm has been evaluated against each of the VAD certification
requirement standards and meets or exceeds all of the measures above.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this item. Voluntary Agricultural
Districts are non-monetary and non-binding conservation agreements. Enhanced Voluntary
Agriculture Districts are non-monetary and are binding 10-year conservation agreements.
SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goal is applicable to
this item:
• GOAL: ENSURE ECONOMIC SELF-SUFFICIENCY
The creation and preservation of infrastructure, policies, programs and funding necessary
for residents to provide shelter, food, clothing and medical care for themselves and their
dependents.
The Orange County Voluntary Agricultural District Program ordinance conserves, protects and
encourages the preservation and improvement of agricultural land within the County boundaries
as a critical component of the County's cultural and rural character and its economy by virtue of
the production of food, fiber and other products. The purpose of this Ordinance is to reduce the
loss of productive and existing farmland by promoting agricultural values and the general
welfare of the County, recognize the existence of important farmlands by seeking to minimize
risks of nuisance suits that arise from the onset of other land uses, encourage participation in
voluntary programs to preserve and protect farmland from non-farm development and increase
identity and awareness of the agricultural community, and its role in the economic and cultural
quality of life for all County residents (Excerpt from the Orange Co. VAD program ordinance).
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board certify the five (5) farm
properties noted above totaling 421 acres (VAD) and 126 acres (EVAD) (rounded acreage) as
denoted in the attached documentation as qualifying farmland; designate them as a Voluntary or
Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District farm within the Schley/Eno, Cedar Grove, New Hope,
and High Rock/Efland Voluntary Agricultural Districts; and enroll the lands in the Orange County
Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) and the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD)
programs.
With approval of these additional acres, the Orange County Voluntary Agricultural District
Program will have enrolled 78 farms, totaling 9,320 acres in the VAD and 2,144 acres in the
EVAD for a total of 11,464 acres (rounded) in the program.

CONSERVATION AGREEMENT DETAIL of VAD and EVAD:
Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) conservation agreements are for a period of ten
years. The landowner may revoke the agreement through a written request to the Orange
County Agricultural Preservation Board. A Conservation Agreement for land within a
Voluntary Agricultural District shall be automatically renewed for an additional term of ten
years unless either the Agricultural Preservation Board or the landowner(s) gives written
notice to the contrary prior to the termination date of the Conservation Agreement. At the
end of each ten-year term, the Conservation Agreement shall automatically renew for an
additional ten-year term unless notice of termination is given.
Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD) conservation agreements are for a
period of ten years, but cannot be revoked during the term of the agreement. EVAD
enrollment, however, offers landowners additional benefits such as a higher percentage of
cost-share funds under the Agricultural Cost Share Program. A Conservation Agreement for
an Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District shall be deemed automatically renewed for an
additional term of three years unless either the Agricultural Preservation Board or the
landowner(s) gives written notice to the contrary prior to the termination date of the
Conservation Agreement. At the end of each three-year term the Conservation Agreement
shall automatically renew for an additional three-year term unless notice of termination is
given.
I [We] have read the Conservation Agreement details above and I [we] understand the
benefits of the VAD and/or EVAD program.
