BACKGROUND: Orange County's Voluntary Farmland Preservation Program was started in 1992. To date there are 138 farms in both the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) and the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District (EVAD) program — totaling 16,845 * acres. 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: (1) Be located in the unincorporated area of Orange County; (2) Be used for bona fide farm purposes, as that term is defined in G.S. 106-743.4(a) and G.S. 160D-903; (3) Be in accordance with the minimum size requirements, which are as follows: (a) Consist of at least(i)one contiguous acre of land in production for horticultural or agricultural purposes; or(ii) at least twenty total acres of land under management for forestry; (b) In the event that a landowner has multiple tracts of qualifying farmland that are eligible, and those tracts are located within one mile or less of each other, then they may comprise a Voluntary Agricultural District. (4) Be managed in accordance with the Natural Resources Conservation Service and N.C. Division of Soil and Water Conservation defined erosion-control practices and have a current conservation farm plan and/or forestry management plan associated with the current usages and owner; and (5) Be the subject of a conservation agreement, as defined in N.C. Gen. Stat. § 121-35, between the County and the owner of such land 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. 2 The Orange County Agricultural Preservation Board reviewed the findings of the staff assessments for the attached applications for the Orange County Voluntary Agricultural District program at its regular meeting in May, 2022. 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 to recommend approval of the certification for these five (5) farms, and their inclusion in the Voluntary and/or the Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District programs. 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 Jeanne and Larry Crabtree have submitted an application to enroll one (1) parcel of land totaling 14.46 acres as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) in the Caldwell Agricultural District. The farm operation includes corn and soybeans. 2) Owner Jennifer Noah, Trustee of Sarah A. Clayton Trust, has submitted an application to enroll one (1) parcel of land totaling 14.46 acres as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) in the Caldwell Agricultural District. The farm operation includes corn and soybeans. 3) Owners Richard and Jamie Holcomb of Coon Rock Farm have submitted an application to enroll three (3) parcels of land totaling 42.77 acres as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program in the New Hope Agricultural District. The farm operation includes vegetable production, pasture, and managed forestry and woodland. 4) Owners Glenn and Payton Rose have submitted an application to enroll one (1) parcel of land totaling 19.51 acres as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program in the New Hope Agricultural District. The farm operation includes vegetable and herb production and woodlands. 5) Owners William and Sandra Totten have submitted an application to enroll one (1) parcel of land totaling 29.64 acres as qualifying farmland for the Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program in the Schley/Eno Agricultural District. The farm operation includes managed forestry and woodland. FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this item. Voluntary Agricultural Districts are non-monetary and non-binding conservation agreements. Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural 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 3 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 (from the Orange County Farmland Preservation/VAD program ordinance). RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board certify the five (5) farm properties noted above totaling 121 acres*; designate them as Voluntary Agricultural District farms within the Caldwell, New Hope, and Schley/Eno Voluntary Agricultural Districts; and enroll the lands in the Orange County Farmland Preservation Program's Voluntary Agricultural District (VAD) program. With approval of these farms, the Orange County Farmland Preservation program will have enrolled 143 farms, totaling 14,371 acres* in the VAD and 2,595* acres in the EVAD for a total of 16,966 acres* in the program. *acres are rounded numbers � ar 1 (�J�i'z 11 I•�s�� , ►• •�i 1 i� � it A � v 5 Application for Orange County Farmland Preservation Program Voluntary and Enhanced Voluntary Agricultural District Program INSTRUCTIONS: Before completing the application, please review the VAD/EVAD brochure provided; Complete the form as completely as possible; sign and date the form, and return to: Orange County Dept. of Environment,Agriculture, Parks and Recreation Soil and Water Conservation Division P.O.
