Thi s land. use 'restri,cti.on hat existed on the property for four years and :represents �,Yhe desire r of both the original property owners p(Jake L. and Teresa C. Henneman, Gregory A. and Afra C.

A The effect of this cancellation will be to permit nt=" agriciil L-ura'l as well as agricultural use of the property, thereby allowing urban uses to become establ.ishea. Since thesite is preaen°�ly honed A- General, almost any type of use would therefore be potential. Znctloased property taxation pressures may be generated on the property by removal of this restH cti.on, espeoially if other area 'Properties n. the ta.the north and east are developed i. nearby pro ernes) on these future (same dovelopme-its are currently propoi�ed P . Establiahment of residential use on tho site M0, increase urban development pressures and property taxation on ad; ,joining lands particularly on area agricultural properties that are not within an agricultural preservo. Removal of this land use restriction will , in essence; be dosignating the property as non-prinie agri.cul-tural, land, indicating that the site may not be asuitable location for r ocol omically viable commercial agricultural use (as the applica nt irms), ad thereby aff, indicating that the site may be a suitable location for residontial aubdivision development, as the applicant has proposed. If the Agreoment is cancelled and urban devolopment pressures become established (and taxation of the property and sures rounding properties increases), then the area may convert to non -�igr' icltural uses over timecuhcellati on Will be implying that the highest and beat 'use of the sitemay not be agricultutaJ4 Urban 'develo ment and use that is establiblied in the area may cause increased conflicts and ,,ftcbtpatJbilities between tho developments and other exi8ting agricuJrtural operations in the area. f , :,t should be + pointed out that the �utt,e'+,county General' ; 0 Plat Land Ilse dement designates this area as tesidehtial, ' 17 u:#ts per acre.
