These districts are consistent with the Columbia County Comprehensive Plan. Note: these Districts are not in effect until late 2013.FP Farmland Preservation: The Farmland Preservation Area identified on the maps largely coincides withthe area designated for future ÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ãâ\u20ac¦Ã¢â\u201a¬Å\u201cAgricultural and Other Open SpaceÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ãâ\u20acšÃ\u201aÂ\u009d use on the Future Land Use map (Map 8-3) within the Columbia County Comprehensive Plan 2030 and within individual town comprehensive plans. District is eligible to collect farmland preservation tax credits.Factors include:Areas with concentrations of prime farmland, lands currently being farmed, agricultural infrastructure, and uses that are compatible with agriculture such as mineral extraction sites.Lands in which current residential development density generally does not exceed a density of one home per 35 acres; or with scattered, small-scale, pre-existing commercial uses. The purpose of this factor is to allow, within the Farmland Preservation Area, a limited amount of pre-existing zoning and use conditions that do not technically meet Farmland Preservation Area policies, while at the same time assuring that a vast majority of lands that are planned for farmland preservation are also zoned for farmland preservation.Lands outside of current city and village limits, except for certain lands within the Village of Doylestown that are planned and zoned for farmland preservation. Because this data is merged with the Base Zoning Districts, the rest of the information in the attribute table is invalidated due to Municipal Boundaries.Lands outside of the planned Urban Transition Area and Developed/Infill Area.DI Developed/Infill: In contrast to the Urban Transition Area, the Developed/Infill Area category does not include large areas that are currently undeveloped but expected to develop in the next 15 years. Instead, factors include:Undeveloped parcels that are specifically planned for a non-agricultural, developed future land use per future land use maps in the Columbia County Comprehensive Plan 2030 and/or individual town comprehensive plans, and/or zoned for development. These ÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ãâ\u20ac¦Ã¢â\u201a¬Å\u201cinfillÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ãâ\u20acšÃ\u201aÂ\u009d areas are smaller than individual Urban Transition Areas (usually 40 contiguous acreas or less), are not generally planned to be served by public sewer, and are usually surrounded on at least two sides by existing development.Currently developed parcels that are specifically planned for a non-agricultural, developed future land use per future land use maps in the Columbia County Comprehensive Plan 2030 and/or individual town comprehensive plans.Other groupings of 10 or more sub-35 acre developed lots, regardless of how they were designated on future land use maps or zoning maps. Smaller groupings and clusters were generally mapped within the Farmland Preservation Area, unless meeting the previous criterion for mapping in the Developed/Infill Area.Parks and other recreational spaced integrated within largely residential areas.Densely platted or subdivided lands, such as along certain waterfront areas.Golf courses, campgrounds, and other intensively developed areas, even if zoned in one of the CountyÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¾Ã\u201a¢s agricultural and open space zoning districts.UT Urban Transition: Designation of lands in an Urban Transition area does not guarantee that the areawill develop or is even buildable; there may be challenges to building, including soil limitations and other environmental constraints.Factors include:Coordinate growth and development planning between towns and incorporated municipalities.Design and locate housing in rural areas in a manner that minimized adverse impacts on agriculture and maintains the rural character in Columbia County.Encourage higher-density residential development, particularly in areas where public utilities will be available.Designate lands intended for non-agricultural development within the next 15 years in something other than a Farmland Preservation Area, as required under the StateÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¾Ã\u201a¢s Working Lands law. The significance of this requirement is that lands designated as Urban Transition Area within the Farmland Preservation Plan may not be zoned in a certified farmland preservation zoning district (the CountyÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¾Ã\u201a¢s A-1 Agriculture District). Therefore, the owners of such lands may not collect farmland preservation tax credits. The rationale for this is that such owners presumably have shorter-term opportunities to realize non-farm returns from their land via development, and that limited State resources should be committed to other areas where there is more uniform commitment to long-term farmland preservation. GIS-PIN (Gis-Pin):Unique PIN Number assigned to a parcel by the Columbia County Land Information DepartmentUPDATE_ID (Update ID): Planning and Zoning staff member who last updated the entry.UPDATE_DATE (Date Updated): Date entry was updated by the Planning and Zoning staff member.NewZone_Type (Zoning District): Base Zoning Districts pursuant to the CountyÃÆ\u2019Ã\u201a¢Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¡Ã\u201a¬Ã¢ââ\u201a¬Å¾Ã\u201a¢s Zoning Ordinance, Title 16, Chapter 100. A-1 Agriculture District:The A-1 District provides for the preservation, maintenance, and enhancement of agriculture, farmland, forestry, and natural areas for the benefit of farm operators and the general public in terms of continued production of food and fiber and environmental quality. Except for the continuation of preexisting uses, all uses, structures and improvements in this district are restricted to those consistent with agricultural use and rezoning will be approved only where consistent with the Columbia County Farmland Preservation and Comprehensive Plans and the public interest. This policy is intended to avoid conflict which occurs when farm and non-farm uses are mixed and to minimize the adverse pressure upon agricultural use caused by speculative land value and consequent increases in property taxes on farmland. This District is intended to be used in areas mapped as Agricultural or Other Open Space in the Comprehensive Plan.A-2 General Agriculture District:The A-2 District is intended for farmland and open space preservation, and for limited residential use of lands without rezoning the land to a residential zoning district, in areas of the County where such lands do not qualify for A-1 zoning because of smaller parcel size. This District is primarily intended to be used in areas mapped for future Agriculture or Other Open Space use in the Comprehensive Plan. The only lands which qualify to be placed in the A-2 District are those divisions of record as of November 1, 1984, which are not under common ownership with any contiguous land which bring the total acreage under contiguous common ownership to 35 acres or greater.A-3 Agriculture Business District: The A-3 District is intended to accommodate a variety of business thatare related to or directly support agricultural production in the County; require a rural location due to extensive land area needs, impacts or proximity to resources; do not require urban services like public sanitary sewer or water service; and may not be appropriate in other agricultural, commercial, or industrial zoning districts. This District is primarily intended to be used in areas mapped for future Agricultural or Other Open Space use in the Comprehensive Plan.RC-1 Recreation District: The RC-1 District is intended to accommodate land use serving the commercial and natural recreational need and interest of tourists or the local population. This district provides an environment that does not allow residential uses, commercial uses that are not recreation-based, or industrial uses, which are instead allowed in other zoning districts. The RC-1 district may be mapped in areas with pre-existing use meeting this description or in areas that are identified for recreational land use in the Comprehensive Plan.RR-1 Rural Residence District: The RR-1 District is intended to provide for limited rural residential development in areas that have a predominately agricultural or open space character, and on sites that are less suited for agricultural production or will have a limited impact on agricultural production. The limited application of this district is primarily intended for areas mapped for Agricultural or Other Open Space use in the Comprehensive Plan, in accordance with density and other standards within the Comprehensive Plan or a more restrictive town plan. Residents of this district may experience conditions associated with farming they may not consider to be compatible with residential use.R-1 Single-Family Residence District: The R-1 District is intended primarily for single-family dwellings on relatively small lots, along with compatible home occupations, small-scale institutional and recreational use, and low-intensity, pre-existing agricultural use. The district is generally designed for existing or planned residential development area, including those near cities and villages, in crossroad hamlets or unincorporated villages, in developed or developing waterfront areas, and in conservation neighborhood developments. Minimum lot dimensions depend on the type of sanitary waste treatment method employed.R-2 Multiple-Family Residence District: The R-2 District is intended for a mix of residential developmenttypes and densities, along with compatible home occupations, small-scale institutional and recreational uses, and pre-existing, low-intensity agricultural operation. Minimum lot dimensions depend both on the number of dwelling units and the type of sanitary waste treatment method employed.R-3 Manufactured or Mobile Home Park District: The R-3 District is intended to provide a safe, attractive, and functional environment for mobile and manufactured home parks and subdivisions, where the characteristics of manufactured homes, if sited in such parks or subdivisions, do not allow them to be classified as single-family dwellings in accordance with sections 16-155-030A1 and 16-125-090A. The district shall be mapped only where the mobile or manufactured home park will be provided with public sanitary sewer service or served by a private group waste treatment system.C-1 Light Commercial District: The C-1 District is intended to accommodate a fairly limited (compared to C-2) range of retail, office, commercial service, hospitality, residential, and institutional uses that are compatible with surrounding residential or rural environments. Development in this district should be characterized by modestly sized buildings; high-quality site, building, landscape, signage, lighting design; and other techniques to manage impacts on surrounding land uses and the rural community. This district should be generally mapped at or near road crossings that serve as gathering points for rural communities.C-2 General Commercial District:The C-2 District is intended to accommodate a wide range and scale of retail, office, commercial service, hospitality, and institutional uses, with moderate attention towards site, building, landscape, signage, and lighting design and surrounding land use and community impact.C-3 Highway Interchange District: The C-3 District is intended to accommodate a wide variety and scale of retail, office, commercial service, hospitality, and institutional uses in locations close to interstate and other major highway interchanges. Given the high visibility of lands zoned in the C-3 District, development within this district should positively contribute to the image and character of the County, through high-quality site, building, landscape, signage, and lighting design.I-1 Light Industrial District: The I-1 District is intended to accommodate high-quality, controlled-impact light manufacturing, assembly, office, and storage land uses. Where zoned over an area divided or intended to be divided into several lots, lands zoned I-1 should generally be developed in a planned business or industrial park format, ideally following the creation of a business or industrial park master plan. Development in this district should be characterized by high-quality and low-impact site, building, landscape, signage, lighting design, intended to minimize impacts on surrounding land uses and the natural environment.I-2 General Industrial District: The I-2 District is intended to accommodate a range of manufacturing, assembly, office, storage, utility, and other compatible but higher-impact industrial and related land uses, with moderate attention towards site, building, landscaping, signage, and lighting design.VA_ Acres (Poly Acres):Acreage of the polygon displayed via ArcGIS. This is different from the actual acreage of the parcel, which is provided by the Land Information Department.CertDistrict (Certified District): Designates if the parcel is eligible to receive farmland preservation tax credits. Some split zoned parcels may be partially eligible depending on zoning districts.ADOPTED_DATE (Date Adopted): Date the township adopted the County Zoning Ordinance - Title 16, Chapter 100ZFILE (Zoning File):Planning and Zoning Rezoning file number.ORD_NO (Ordinance): Ordinance number recording the rezoning.ORD_DATE (Ordinance Date):Date the ordinance was passed.NOTES (Notes):Notes regarding the specific polygon/parcel.SPLIT_ZONING (Split Zoned): Designates if the parcel is split zoned.
